Effective thriller keeping your interest alive throughout.

Rating: 8/10 (22 August 2019)

"Prisoners" is a thriller film combining a well known thematic - abduction - with Scandinavian noir-esque settings and a dive into psychological twists. The film is filled with unexpected turns and some solid acting, especially that of Hugh Jackman, who portrays the film's protagonist, a seemingly ordinary father flawlessly. His descent into desperation and despair and the result of that is something that truly makes "Prisoners" stand out in the sea of crime movies.
