Reception
TV Guide gave the film only one star out of five and stated: "A made-for-cable-TV feature released to home video, THE DISAPPEARANCE OF CHRISTINA is a frustrating suspense drama, mostly formula until a surprise conclusion that's only a surprise because there's no surprise."[2] Dominic Griffin from Variety magazine wrote: "John Stamos stars in this murder mystery about a man whose life falls apart after his wife disappears and he's accused of her murder. What could have been a generic missing-persons movie is vastly improved by some exciting and interesting story twists."[3]
