Mo's Critic #13 : Bunny Lake is Missing

Mo's Critic #13 : Bunny Lake is Missing

Merriam Model's novel was the subject an adaptation in 1965, starring Laurence Olivier in Mark Strong's role and Carol Lynley instead of Natalie Portman. The film was dismissed by critics after its released and this modern take on the novel is more of the same. We have a talented actress in Portman wasted in a uninspired movie, just like Olivier in 1965. The premise is good, but it all crumbles at the end, but this is not the screenwriter, nor the filmmaker's fault, but the source material. Dominic Cooper is cringey as Portman's brother and the performances somehow felt flat. This is not a movie to be remembered, but certainly not the worst.
