Skip it. The gimmick of not giving James McAvoy a script sounds more like a pretentious experiment than a thrilling mystery, and without any critical consensus to back up the premise, this feels like a film more interested in its own novelty than in actually gripping you. There are better missing-person thrillers out there that won't waste your time on directorial showboating.
