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.,

Low-Budget Butler?
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!
Straight forward plot, but still an enjoyable movie...
Well, while the 2022 crime thriller "Last Seen Alive" is hardly rocket science or a movie that particularly revolutionized the genre, then it was actually still rather enjoyable.
Sure, "Last Seen Alive" was pretty generic and straight forward, even for a movie of this genre. But writer Marc Frydman still managed to churn out a storyline and script that was interesting, enjoyable and entertaining in the good old fashioned way that a movie should be entertaining.
No secret about the fact that I sat down to watch "Last Seen Alive" because it had Gerard Butler on the cast list, and yeah he did carry the movie rather well with his performance. I will say that his performance was actually one that showed realism and a human touch to it, making it all the more realistic.
This wasn't a movie that bolstered a lot of high profile actors and actresses. But the movie does manage to show that you don't need actors and actresses paid laughably-insane-amounts of money per movie to be an enjoyable one. The actors and actresses in this movie all put on good and realistic performances, carrying the movie rather nicely.
If you enjoy crime thrillers then "Last Seen Alive" is worth taking the time to watch. I was actually genuinely entertained by the movie from start to end.
My rating of director Brian Goodman's "Last Seen Alive" lands on a six out of ten stars.
