How far would you go to protect your family? Oscar® nominee Hugh Jackman stars as a man facing every parent's worst nightmare. His six-year-old daughter is missing, together with her young friend -- and as minutes turn to hours, panic sets in. The only lead is a dilapidated RV that had earlier been parked on their street. Heading the investigation, the detective in charge (Jake Gyllenhaal) arrests its driver (Paul Dano), but a lack of evidence forces his release. As the police pursue multiple leads and pressure mounts, knowing his child's life is at stake, the frantic father decides he has no choice but to take matters into his own hands. But just how far will he go to protect his family? Led by Jackman and Gyllenhaal, this dramatic thriller features an all-star cast, including Maria Bello as Keller's distraught wife; Oscar® nominees Terrence Howard and Viola Davis as the other parents, whose daughter also went missing; in addition to Academy Award® winner Melissa Leo.

A movie that really makes you think. In my opinion, it's not for teens and ages under that. This would've received five stars, but the ending didn't sit quite right with me.

Prisoners is definitely a film worth watching. Not exactly a movie for the overtly sympathetic, due to some of the content shown, but Prisoners is a brilliant movie, with outstanding performances from the cast.

This is one of those 'Se7en' films; atmospheric, intensfully paced, beautifully shot, well-acted, and incredibly written. And I love the ending.
