FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

stillcrows1962 SPOILER ALERT: The simple plot point you used in your example was covered when the Priest and Mrs. Kenyan stated "clearly" that her car was stolen, along with her purse and I.D. The Detective knew all along about the truth of his wife, let's not forget that, so he "wouldn't" want to prove otherwise about the "other" Mrs. Kenyan. He could simply say he put in an order for the Driver's license but it's pending, and stall. Harry Kenyan wouldn't necessarily act any certain way, being that he's cornered himself into a specific set of rules so as not to reveal "himself". So he might not act as you'd think he should. Plus, he's a criminal, and criminals make mistakes. Neither side knows what the other is doing, and both sides are trying to work it out without revealing what "they" know. That's the brilliance of this "plot". The unraveling of incidents "is" frustrating, but that's why it draws you in "with" the characters. Don't you think they'd be frustrated as well? This is a wonderful movie, and it is a plausible plot that could, and in part has, happen(ed) in real life. I wish they'd remake this.

markef What a fabulous Movie. The Cast includes Elliott Gould, Mike Farrell, Margot Kidder and Fred Gwynne (of the Munsters fame). The story has more twists and turns than a tin of worms, but you are kept in suspense right up until the end. What a great plot. I have seen this movie more than a dozen times, I have it on VHS but would love to buy it on DVD, but unfortunately it does not seem to be available at this stage. Mike Farrell plays the distraught husband (Harry) whose wife seems to be missing, while Elliott Gould is great as the Lieutenant of Police and one of my favourite actors Fred Gwynne plays the Priest. Margot Kidder is also great in this Movie. And how could we forget "Max" the dog? I would equally rate this move with another called "Murder Ordained" which I also have on VHS and also DVD. I would recommend "Vanishing Act" to anyone who loves a great mystery with plenty of twists to the plot. I rate it 9/10

Paul English Finally tracked down a copy of this movie on V(ideo) H(ome) S(ystem)Not as good as what it is based on, "One Of My Wives Is Missing" but an enjoyable mystery nonetheless. Stars Margot Kidder in yet another unlikeable and smug role.No fear Elliott Gould excels though.7/10

waldorfsalad You won't be bored for a minute with this one, it's very well-written and it's got some really neat plot twists. It's an interesting role for Mike Farrell who is very believable as the suspect and Margo Kidder ones again shows us what a fine actress she is. Elliott Gould, as the police inspector, is fantastic and Fred Gwynne, good old Fred, is swell as the clergyman. A great cast, a great plot, great direction, next time they run it, be sure to record and save it for a rainy afternoon with the family.
