Prisoners (dir. Denis Villeneuve).
It’s a compelling and engrossing enough throughout, if overly ambitious. However, it’s mechanical scripting includes some problematic and convenient plot points exploited by its characters. Its cast, most notably an understated performance by [Jake] Gyllenhaal, and Denis Villeneuve’s very strong, disciplined direction elevates the material beyond its scope or an extended episode of Law & Order.
