Prisoners


When his, and a neighbour's, daughter disappears feared abducted and a police detective's enquiries seem to be leading to nothing Hugh Jackman decides to take matters into his own hands.

'Prisoners' is a taut, edge of your seat, crime thriller with horror overtones along the lines of 'Mystic River' and 'Gone Baby Gone'.

Jackman and Jake Gyllenhaal are outstanding but really the entire cast is excellent.

Some scenes had me averting my eyes and the film is perhaps about 20 minutes too long but otherwise it is top notch in its genre.
★★★★
