Jul 31, 2016A great drama with excellent performances from both Jackman and Gyllenhaal, although lessened by an unnecessarily complicated plot.Peter B Super Reviewer

Mar 30, 2016Outstanding acting, a tight, mesmerizing and engaging script and the directing make this one of the most exciting and best thrillers of recent years. The themes and questions raised here together with the images stay with you for a very long time. A gem of the genre.Jens S Super Reviewer

Feb 06, 2016As of now this is the best directed film of Denis Villeneuve. Prisoners makes your eyes glued to the screen, the characters are well written, the pacing is perfect, the story is magnificent and the twist in the finale blew me away like I did not see that coming. I forgot to mention how beautiful the cinematography is thanks to Roger Deakins. If you haven't seen Prisoners then you are in for a ride.Mr N Super Reviewer
