Stunner then Bummer

Rating: 6/10 (22 September 2013)

I was so excited to see this movie, I love suspenseful thrillers and it has been too long since a good ones come around. Prisoners delivers a mix of predictable suspense with some elements of surprise, like the ending. The movie entangles you in an emotional roller-coaster then stops prematurely. I loved the movie, but left feeling twisted & robbed. The cast was superb and the story unraveled nicely but collapsed hard on you at the end. Its a terrible feeling that the director puts you through and I hate him for that. I would wait for the DVD and hopefully he will fix the ending on a special extended directors cut edition then you will have the ending this movie deserves. It is just not complete, why start something if you are not going to complete it? Its like an incomplete sentence you get from a loved one on their death bed. "I left you a million dollars in cash in the back of .........?"
