An outstanding film

Rating: 10/10 (12 August 2015)

From start to finish the movie Prisoners excels in every direction. Directed by Denis Villeneuve this movie is a thrilling ride from the get go.
Basically without getting to detailed into the story, the movie evolves around Keller Dover (Hugh Jackman) who's daughter goes missing at the start of the film, along with Franklin Birch's (Terrence Howard) daughter as well. This leads Detective Loki (Jake Gylenhall) on the case to look for them.
This isn't just your simple person goes missing film, this is a well detailed movie, the cinematography is just beautiful and the musical score is amazing to say the least, it does a great sense of showing great emotion to a lot of the film.
Although having the film at 154 minutes long you will be to hooked into the story to worry about that. The movie does a great job of showing the true emotion, the film creates a dreary state with the snow and heavy rain to leave a haunting approach.
Onto the acting in my opinion I was disappointed that both Jackman and Gylenhall didn't get nominated for Oscars as they were fantastic in there roles, all the acting is outstanding as well so you'll see some great performance from side characters such as (Paul Dano, Melissa Leo and Terrence Howard).
Overall Prisoners is a thrilling ride from start to finish with twists and turns and brilliant story telling to keep you entertained for the entirety of 154 minutes, you will be on the edge of your seat as well. A MUST WATCH!!!!!!!!!!!!
