There is an abundance of descriptors worthy of this slice of genius; clever, believable, compelling, detailed, endearing. In addition to its nuanced and highly relatable style for the modern American audience - the setups, the emotional triggers, the revelation, all are exceedingly effective and noteworthy. Because the elements of this movie are so positive and they work in such seamless succession, Searching has earned a permanent spot on my top ten indy flicks of all time.
