“The Lost” (** out of four) was a lukewarm crime melodrama about two detectives (Kris Johnson and Farah Ahmed) who investigate the disappearance of a young girl who vanishes during a family birthday party but they soon find that the clues take them in multiple different directions all at once. Writer/director Peter Stylianou holds you in his grip with his storytelling and stylistics but his focus wanders too much as film goes on and it subsequently begins to lose its grip and thus it’s impact. Certainly watchable but not especially memorable.
