Reviews


75
New York Post - Kyle Smith
Rising star Michael Shannon makes a riveting shamus hired to chase a runaway husband in the quiet but resonant little noir The Missing Person.
75
Entertainment Weekly - Lisa Schwarzbaum
Overly fussy and self-conscious in its noir details. But in The Missing Person, Buschel makes striking use of the Mike Hammer/Philip Marlowe tradition.
70
The New York Times - Jeannette Catsoulis
Sluggish, stylized and frequently washed in a bilious green tint, The Missing Person is yet oddly irresistible.
60
Time Out - Nicolas Rapold
It’s Shannon’s slow, steady world of hurt that makes the film watchable.
60
Los Angeles Times - Kevin Thomas
Despite honoring noir genre conventions, Buschel also draws upon his fertile imagination in dialogue and in storytelling that allows his film gradually to accrue meaning.
