Watch Missing For Free

Sick Product of a Sick System

From my favorite movies..

Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Was not entirely excited by the idea of the story (though with the right execution it may have worked in a moderate guilty pleasure way), with it being nothing new and with the fear nothing new would be brought to it. Coming across 'Desaparecidos' by chance and having an appreciation for horror, despite not expecting an awful lot the decision was made to view it with an open and fair mind. 'Desaparecidos', a Brazilian found footage (have never been a fan because it has nearly always been done badly or worse) horror, turned out to be one of those films that didn't really excite on paper but seen also as part of a low-budget horror quest on top of having appreciation for the genre, and didn't fare much better, in fact it fared even worse, in how it was executed. Do not take any pleasure criticising the film, but it didn't work for me at all in almost every aspect.Some lighting was not bad and had some atmosphere, but was generally too dark and drab. Especially when it was very difficult to appreciate, let alone enjoy, it properly when the editing especially was so confused and jumpy and the camera work inducing excessive nausea.Audio is obvious and intrusive and it honestly feels like a woefully inexperienced under-budgeted film in terms of how it is directed.One of the worst aspects was the acting, which is unspeakably dreadful all round. Have not seen acting this unnatural-looking in a while. The script is horrendously stilted and the characters are not interesting or rootable at all.Furthermore, there is no tension or suspense whatsoever. The film is far too dully paced and uneventful to be thrilling and is just too silly, jumpy and predictable to evoke any sense of terror. Some of it is not very easy to follow either.Summing up, nothing good here and everything is awful. 1/10 Bethany Cox

I'm so sorry, but I have to say it, I'm so glad it was over. This was by far one of the worst movies I have ever seen. Desaparecidos is a Brazilian found footage movie with about 70 minutes. Even though it only has 70 minutes it looked like 5 hours to me. I must say though that my opinion should not be taken as serious as it should, mostly because my biggest problem with the whole movie was the language. Since Portuguese and Brazilian are both referred as "portuguese" I thought I could watch this without subtitles, and actually I could, but I wasn't able to understand a huge part of the dialogue and that ruined it for me from the beginning. Brazilian is a really messy and loud language, in my opinion, and in situations of fear and panic it gets even worse, making it impossible to understand anything from my point of view. But that probably isn't a problem to foreign people because they will always watch it with subtitles. That said, I also had a lot of problems with the rest of the movie mostly because there's nothing going on all the time. Some guys get kind of lost in the woods while looking for a friend, and apart from that they just spend the whole movie running and screaming hysterically, and that's it. There's no people disappearing throughout the movie, just the one who was already missing, and they spent at least 50 minutes just running around, screaming. The fact that it is a found footage movie makes it even more annoying because all we see are leaves and trees and woods, nothing much. The end was rushed just to make them all disappear like the title says, so they ALL go missing in the last 5 minutes and not throughout the movie as it was expected as a horror movie. To end this, I must point to the fact that the police at the end is grabbing evidence with their bare hands, no gloves no nothing, and they don't seem to really know what they're doing.

Well, the plot of the movie isn't a great surprise: a bunch of young people lost in the middle of nowhere. You take this and add the new wave of "lost footage", like Blair With Project did and many others copied after, and you have this movie.But if you had nothing new on this movie and still had a great movie, an entertaining film, you could not get disappointed. The main problem starts here: it's just more of the same, but with lost of bad actors, bad camera, bad effects, bad make up, terrible sound, dialogs. Everything in this movie is badly done, and if you don't notice it have just 70 minutes, you will think in the end that you were watching this for about 5 hours.

In São Paulo, the friends Alexa (Charlene Chagas), Rodrigo (André Madrini), Kamila (Natalia Vidal), Marco (Pedro Urizzi), Fábia (Fernanda Peviani) e Carla (Adriana Veraldi) receive an invitation to a party in Ilhabela together with a video camera with a necklace. When Rodrigo goes with a girl to the woods to have sex, he panics and gets lost and his friends seek him out. The group vanishes in the woods and their cameras are found later disclosing tragic events."Desaparecidos" is an amateurish and annoying home video of bad quality. After the original "The Blair Witch Project", the documentary "style" using a Handycam has become the favorite of people that wants to make a cheap film. The result is terrible and for Brazilian natives, we have to bear also the dreadful accent from São Paulo in addition to the screams and hysterical and histrionic unconvincing acting. My vote is one (awful).Title (Brazil): "Desaparecidos" ("Missing")
