The Missing Movie Synopsis

Maggie Gilkeson (Blanchett) is a young woman raising her two daughters in an isolated and lawless wilderness. When her oldest daughter (Wood) is kidnapped by a psychopathic killer with mystical powers (Schweig), Maggie is forced to re-unite with her long estranged father (Jones) to rescue her. The killer and his brutal cult of desperados have kidnapped several other teenage girls, leaving a trail of death and horror across the desolate landscape of the American Southwest. Maggie and her father are in a race against time to catch up with the renegades and save her daughter, before they cross the Mexican border and disappear forever.

This was a movie I could watch over and over again lots of suspense and very genuine a great storyline.

FABULOUS! This film illustrates the love & commitment of a mother as she seeks to hunt down the Apache mystic (witch doctor) who kidnapped her daughter. It shows the good and bad sides of the Native Americans as well as the good and bad sides of the white man. A thrill to watch every time!

I thought it was a great movie. Both Tommy Lee Jones and Cate Blanchett did an impressive job. The movie was a bit slow in the beginning, but once the girl was kidnapped, it was good all the way until the end. I love how the director didn`t rush to the ending but slowly reveal each scene to make it realistic.
