It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

I noticed another goof when it comes to the exhaust placement. In one shot, the tailpipe is shown in front of the right rear wheel and in another scene, it is behind the tire.

Sometimes the writer shouldn't direct. Sometimes the writer shouldn't even write. This film is a shambles, a true mess.

It seems that the production paid loads of money to get Ryan Ronald on board to guarantee box office. Everyone else was really bad in acting. That is also obviously the fault of the screenwriter and casting director. The script had many faults in terms of plot and action. The characters are not at well paid attention to in the screenplay it shows. Atom Egoyan was super lazy in this film. Perhaps he had a cool 'idea' at first, but then I think it stopped at that. It wasn't dealt with properly.

Here's a Better Late then Never Review of "The Captive" (R - 2014 - Canada)...I wish I'd met someone like you when I was a little girl.Genre: Thriller/CrimeMy Score: 6.6Cast=10 Acting=8 Plot=8 Ending=6 Story=3 Suspense=8 Pace=5 Camera=7 Crime=7 Twist=4Eight years after her disappearance, some disturbing incidents seem to indicate that she's still alive. Police, parents and she try to unravel the mystery of her disappearance. "The difference between a youth at risk and a young person with their whole life ahead of them, is care and concern." This was a great film in most aspects, but I hated the timeline. You can't have a movie jump back and forth over 8 years and leave Ryan Reynolds looking exactly the same. Looking deeper into the movie...you can find that everyone was a captive. Everywhere you turn there is someone that is themselves a prisoner. Was the promise kept? It might be worth it for you to find out.
