Though a bit long....The film will hold your attention captive

Rating: 9/10 (13 November 2013)

The first time I seen the preview for Prisoners I knew it would be something that I would really enjoy. To summarize, 2 families kids are abducted and the race to save them before they are found dead or never seen again. Hugh Jackman is the father who goes to extreme measures to find the missing kids. Jake Gyllenhaal is the detective in the film who does what he can to aid the search and find these kids.
The acting in the film is really good especially Jackman and J. Gyllenhaal. It's a tense film from beginning to the end. The film is almost 2 hours and 30 minutes which is way past my attention span for a movie but for some odd reason I couldn't stop watching. This could have been a 10 star rating but my main issue was the ending. Not sure if other reviews mentioned it but I do feel they could've brought some closure to the situation as a whole. Besides that one of the best movies I have seen all year. 9/10
