"The Vanishing" isn't your usual kidnapping drama — this one's got LAYERS.

We get tangled up in an intricate web spun around "what happened" rather than "whodunnit." "The Vanishing" taps into our fascination with the aftermath of a horrific event and explores the relentless grip of obsession. We chew on the tricky question of moving on and the paradoxical timelines of grief.

Tim heartily recommends it with a "rent," while Ryan can't help but hold it to the higher standard of a "buy." Are you ready to vanish into "The Vanishing"?
