I still don't know why Nicki followed all of those people the day the soundtrack was announced. Don't think she's on it.
Doesn't her album come out like a week after the soundtrack drops, anyway?
I can see Nicki being on it only due to the fact that Lorde is such a huge stan + they're on the same label, but idk how any of the other details or logistics would work.
Not only brutal but also brutally funny, Gone Girl mixes top-notch suspenseful storytelling with the kind of razor-edged wit that slashes so quick and clean you're still watching the blade go past before you notice you're bleeding.
In its incremental reveal of key details and wrenching scenes of townsfolk fruitlessly combing the landscape for someone who isn't there, "Gone Girl" is sporadically reminiscent of "Exotica" and even the original "Paradise Lost" documentary. At other times, it'll have you wondering why Fincher went even further down the Barnes & Noble rabbit hole than he did in his 2011 adaptation of "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo." Few filmmakers take as meticulous a behind-the-camera approach to their work as he does, and the fact that he's so enamored of pulpy bestsellers lately isn't altogether surprising, given his impressive track record with similar material in the past.
Marriage is a primal battle of the sexes in "Gone Girl," one in which both sides play dirty and any victories are pyrrhic. Surviving isn't the same as winning, and getting through this provocative, problematic thriller sometimes feels like a war unto itself.
