		Karina Adelgaard Heaven of Horror	"It’s a brutal case that does include answers (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
		Marshall Shaffer Decider	"The telling of this tale leaves a lot to be desired. Be it the skewed perspective or the lack of imagination beyond the immediate specifics of the case, this 82-minute doc misses the mark."
		Laura Vickers-Green Den of Geek	"True-crime doc 'Missing: The Lucie Blackman Case' skips over crucial details about the full impact of the investigation into the British woman’s disappearance in Japan."
		Lori C. Ready Steady Cut	"A compelling yet respectful true crime documentary (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 5)"
		Nick Schager The Daily Beast	"'Missing: The Lucie Blackman Case' comes across as slight, and that notion is reinforced by a finale that draws no meaningful lessons from its tragic saga"
		Carol Midgley The Times	"Barbaric murder revisited with dignity and care (...) (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
		Val M. The Review Geek	"Tim’s dedication to finding his daughter and the Blackman family’s pain will make you emotional in this gripping documentary. (...) Rating: ★★★★★★★★½ (out of 10)"
