Prisoners (2013) is one of the most f*cked-up movies I have seen.


So, I just finished Denis Villeneuve's "Prisoners" from 2013 and must say that this was a really tough and gritty experience.The movie is a slow burn, but it does not take long until it starts burning. Some of the stuff was completely fucked up. Like Hugh Jackmans character slowly torturing Paul Dano and when Viola Davis character finds out how messed up he really is. And then the stuff with the snakes and the pigs blood..and then the whole scary maze stuff. And just the over all topic of child abuse. It's so unsettling and uncomfortable at times.The movie is incredibly scary. Not in a way like a horror movie, but scary in a way that you know people like this actually exist. The characters are forced into immoral situations, then ready to explode and unleash all the anger. It's so cleverly directed, and the performances especially by Gyllenhaal & Jackman are near perfect (but also every body else).The last few scenes are suspenseful, and really engaging and this is definitely one of the best movies of 2013.What do you think about Prisoners? via /r/movies http://bit.ly/2QMLMG3
