The Captive (I) (2014)
6/10
Effective Abduction Thriller
4 September 2014
"The Captive" is a thriller following a couple whose daughter was abducted and the detectives who work to help find her. The story is pretty straightforward but can get a little confusing due to constant jumping around in the timeline. But as long as you pay attention its fairly easy to tell when the film is flashing back.

I enjoyed the movie even though it was pretty typical and predictable. It never really tries to be anything other than what it is which is a good and bad thing. It keeps you watching but I never really felt as if I was on the edge of my seat or anything.

Overall this is a watchable movie that is worth checking out if you have already seen "Prisoners" and are in the mood for an abduction thriller. Not anything special but entertaining enough.
