While this movie was powerful, it was WAY WAY too LONG!! they could've cut 20mins out easy. The acting was fantastic, but near the middle I was saying to myself "ok, ok, c'mon let's get this going already"

I really enjoyed the movie. The characters played were believable. It made it seem like this could happen to anyone.

Hugh Jackson outdid himself this time. Since Real Steel was one of the best movies I've seen in a long time,(it had me in tears in a few scenes), but prisoners gives a real lifer look at the feelings a dad has for his child.

boring movie and more like a documentary

Prisoners - 9.5/10 - Very powerful and emotional movie - One of Hugh Jackman's best performances to date (definitely Oscar worthy) - Prisoners running at 2 hours and 33 minutes is definitely worth every minute of your time and will have you on the edge of your seat the entire movie. One of the best movies of this year, Prisoners will stick will you for some time.

Highly charged thriller with a moral compass.Powerfully performed by dreamcast,with academy award potential for Hugh Jackman's portrait of a morally compromised character.

SUSPENSE! is the word to describe as best, the movie. From start to finish, you are wondering, doubting, etc. It is clues over clues and dead end over dead end that keeps you on edge through all the movie to the very last second of the movie. Jake Gyllenhaal is amazing in his character. The movie is emmotions all mixed up inside, compassion, pity and hate. Denis Villeneuve is proving himself to be one good aspiring director in american cinema.

Another great movie from this year. This movie premiered at TIFF and was apparently one of the top films there this year. Great acting from the whole cast. Possibly the best performance of Jake Gyllenhaal's bright career. A captivating and terrifying story with lots of twists that is bound to have you on the edge of your seat.

uno dei più bei film del 2013 e sicuramente un thriller come non lo si vedeva da anni. grandissime performances da parte di Gyllenhaal e Jackman senza dimenticare Paul Dano e l'intero cast. complimenti a Denis Villeneuve,regista tra i più interessanti degli ultimi tempi.

Très bon suspence, et assez impressionnant comme la vie nous fait agir sous la pression et la non acceptation... a voir et même a revoir
November 08, 2013
Great movie and great acting, hard to watch at times but does a great job setting up a situation that would challenge any parent to what lengths they would go to to find their child
November 07, 2013

Yowzer! My kind of movie - loved it. You will be thinking about this movie long after you have left the theatre. Totally griping and well acted.
November 04, 2013
I really enjoyed this movie. The actors were very good, the story moved along so you didn't even realize you were there 2 hours plus. I would recommend it!

One of the best thriller movies in a long time

bon film
November 04, 2013
We really enjoyed this one. Saw it earlier in the fall of 2013, and enjoyed the strong cast. Keep an eye out during awards season for Jake G' and Hugh J'. Especially Hugh ... great role for him. Only minor gripe with the film from people is that it runs a bit long at approx' 2.5 hours. Otherwise ... thumbs up.

This movie was horrible!

Saw this just a week ago in Calgary...really good.
November 02, 2013
This movie was amazing. It was suspenseful, always kept you guessing and was supported by a phenomenal cast. The twist and role reversal of characters was genius.
November 02, 2013
Great movie. But to be honest, I didn't like how the murderer revealed. I wanted fresh movie like a salad for instance, but the movie was very greasy and heavy, like a double-cheeseburger.

Best Movie I've seen this year!!!!!
October 31, 2013
It was very dramatic and compelling. The movie truly shows what parents may go through when their child goes missing. It has so much emotions.
October 31, 2013
So many good movies out there to see. This one included. It tests a loving parent on how far would one go for their children. It tests the theory of innocence before proven guilty. It tests our judicial system and how it works or doesn't work. Good acting by all. And a bit of spoiler alert - you want to believe Hugh was saved.

Great movie edge of your seat. Keeps you guessing till the end.
October 30, 2013

Those who have seen my video review of this movie, you already know how I feel about Prisoners. Well, for those of you who haven't, here's a written one. Prisoners, starring Hugh Jackman and Jake Gyllenhaal?, is one of the best movies of the year, and of the past decade. THE ACTING: The acting in this movie is terrific. Hugh Jackman gives the performance of a lifetime and is definitely Oscar worthy. Viola Davis and Terrance Howard also give excellent performances. The true standouts for me, were Paul Dano and Jake Gyllenhaal. Paul Dano gives one of the creepiest performances I've ever seen, and Jake Gyllenhaal gives an emotional element to the film that was much needed. 10/10 WRITING/S

October 30, 2013

Kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time.
October 29, 2013
Amazing movie. Thrilling from beginning to end. Had to predict our own ending but self explanatory. Worth seeing twice.
October 29, 2013
An intense and dramatic film that will have you gasping many times over. The many twists keeps the plot fresh and Hugh Jackman delivers a career highlight performance.

This movie was good.

It's rare for a movie that runs for over two hours to stay thrilling for its entirety. It's rarer still for a film to make you feel something for its characters -- especially when you aren't completely aware of if they're good or bad -- during such a sustained amount of tension. And it's almost unheard of for you to keep thinking about a film for hours or days after it ends. Such is the case with "Prisoners", a fantastic film and one of the year's best. The film begins innocently enough. One family, the Dovers, is going over to the Birch's house for Thanksgiving dinner. The two families are close, we find out, and this is how they choose to celebrate the holiday. Each family consists of a

This is a thriller that will have you rooting for the good and the bad at the same time. With an unexpected turn of events at the end, you wonder what's going to happen next.
October 28, 2013
creepy movie with execellent performances. Jackman and Paul Dano were great in this film.
October 18, 2013
Way to dark and it took to long to wrap up not my cup of tea
October 12, 2013
I second the too long comment. Too dark for me. But I stayed to the "end". Did they run out of money. Abrupt ending.
