2013’s Prisonersis every parent’s worst nightmare, which features missing children, a kidnapper at large, and little to no help from the authorities. Denis Villeneuve‘s crime thriller is an absolute masterpiece, armed with an original and terrifying script written by Aaron Guzikowski. Prisoners follows Keller Dover (Hugh Jackman) and Franklin Birch (Terrence Howard), two fathers who embark on a frantic search after their respective daughters go missing on Thanksgiving Day. What ensues is a gut-wrenching trek through the cold and wet Pennsylvania suburbs, as the temperamental Detective Loki (Jake Gyllenhaal) conducts his investigation.
