I read this much of the review and quit, but am now psyched. (no real spoilers)

Review | ‘Gone Girl’ is the Best, Worst Date Movie Ever Made

After watching David Fincher’s Gone Girl, you may want to meet the woman that messed the director up.
Fincher’s cynical, coal-hearted autopsy of marriage and reality-TV culture, based on Gillian Flynn’s bestseller, is a manipulative, black comedy mystery about the versions of ourselves we put out there in the name of love and togetherness, only to have them give way to our truer, deeper selves when the romance we so eagerly sought becomes the thing we’re willing to lie, cheat and kill to free ourselves from.
Make no mistake: This is more than just a polished adaptation of popular fiction. It’s a movie that demands at least one repeat viewing as it inches its way up the list of “Best of the Year.”
