Gerard Butler is quite good. His real accent slips out and it makes him more real. He's also not mr super warrior which is unusual and pleasant. Jaimie Alexander is hardly in the film and that's ok because the character is tiresome. The detective is well played but the rest of the supporting cast are really just there.
Cinematography is ok. It drags at the start and so feels much longer than it actually is which is not a good thing. My biggest frustration is the colour work which is very greenish and flat. Personally I find it off putting.
I would have liked it more with different LUTS and more of Butler's actual accent.

We spent more time highlighting the absurd holes in the script of this film than we did watching it.
It's almost unbelievable to see every minute how the scriptwriters just threw this story together, without any concern for development or the slightest care for the most obvious details So, we have the world's most boring and unprepared detective, who, instead of doing his job, prefers to play psychiatrist, the world's most innocent wife and her parents, the world's most clueless and a husband who is somewhat distracted when his wife leaves, but who faces the dog world alone, unarmed. It's a lot to take in.
It's like "writing a page of the script every sunrise" to see if it works.
It's still possible to get to the end, but the only thing that saves the film is the always well-meaning and dedicated work of Gerard Butler, who always gives the impression that he's really living through the whole hellish situation.

Average thriller about a man whose wife disappears at a gas station and he starts looking for her . The film is a bit similar to Taken , Gone Girl , The Vanishing and Breakdown. Sadly it's not as good as any or them . Gerard Butler is okay as the husband in search of his missing wife. (who isn't a likeable character) Luckily the film isn't too long ., The film didn't get much publicity and I can see why.,
The way this movie was shot felt low-budget. Not that it was not entertaining, it was but it just felt like a b- movie. Gerard is always at his best and he was a bad-ass in this movie. Everyone else their acting felt a bit forced except for the wife she was good. Do not expect magic going into this movie but it was at least half good, so there was that I guess. Good for a one time watch, I hope Butler steps up his game and works with a REAL director next time. He is WAY too good for a movie like this!
OMG!!! The writers of this movie must have failed script writing class badly! The dialogues are terrible! Some of the stuff the actors are saying either makes no sense and/or are cringy as hell! I get that compared to the normal movies that Gerald Butler usually did, this is pretty low-budget but holy hell, the script for this is so bad! This is especially apparent with Jamie's character's parents, the dialogues that came out from the mouth of those two are so stupid and on top of that, neither one can act to save their lives!!! My god, did Gerald needed a paycheck that bad?

- TriviaGerard Butler posted on his Instagram page on October 5, 2022: "I'll let you in on a little secret. I took this movie on as a fun challenge/experiment. I improvised the whole movie. I was only ever shown the first ten pages and even they were thrown away once we were on set. We shot the movie in 8 days. I was drawn to the idea of how it would feel stepping into scene after scene having no idea what was gonna be thrown at me. I've never taken on anything like that and it was both challenging and exhilarating. You can't help but be in the moment.
Obviously there were certain parts where I would have to be guided in a general direction but mostly it was flying by the seat of my pants. Amazing work by the rest of the cast having to play off me given I had no idea what was about to come out of my mouth. And to our director Brian Goodman-love you brother."
- GoofsAt the end of the movie at the parents house you can see the camera man crew in the reflection of the window. You can clearly see how the cameraman rushes off not to be seen.
