Desaparecida em Yosemite

The problem with this movie is that it is way too much in several aspects. Yea, so the police, the mayor and almost everyone is angry with a woman trying to find her sister? Really? That is what we are going for? The antagonist, and the "partner" is equally out there. I constantly had the feeling like they needed to enhance everything to keep the audience interest, but instead it just comes off way too much, too cliche. I was also not too found of the sound design, and I felt the ending was a bit convenient and cliche.

With that said however this is still a good watch. The acting, although over the top on some characters, is excellent for this type of movie. The story, although cliche, is well told and there is a proper flow of events and it all comes (too) neatly together. The two main protagonists have great chemistry together and have excellent dialogue. The storytelling is hurt by the over-the-top characters, but is otherwise great despite its cliche.

This is not a great movie, its more of a well acted B-film and you can definitely do a lot better. But you can also do a lot worse. This is worth a look. Just don't have any expectations, take it for what it is.

6/!0 based on above. I somewhat hesitantly recommend. I can definitely see why some might not like this, but I had a good time and I think many others will as well.
