Nashville I. One of the better suspense-inducing scripts in a long time. Before he was the Dune guy, Villaneuve did this very organic mystery that also managed to insert a couple ridiculous smart plot twists in the middle. The ending made perfect sense, but it was also camoflaged perfectly. One of the best mysteries you could ever watch. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 07/17/25 Full Review Arjun l Decent film but it can be slow at some parts of the film as not much really happens Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/17/25 Full Review tururu t A really good thriller, loved the actors, especially Gyllenhaal. There are several interesting moments in the movie, but the parts between them are a little bland, it is also a bit slow placed. Really good watch, a bit underrated in my opinion. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/16/25 Full Review Troy R Honestly, I get that it is maybe trying to give off the theme of how helpless everyone can feel when dealing with a kidnapping scenario, but the extremes it takes this to makes the film feel slow and pointless. Det. Loki spends the whole movie wasting his time and not connecting the information he is getting, despite being "the best detective ever who never has failed to solve a case", and at times outright saying he thinks there is a connection, then never following up. Meanwhile Keller spends the whole film torturing himself and his captive, trying to figure out what he can do. Ultimately the film ends with no one on screen figuring anything out and the ending being more of a "oops we found the killer" than a movie about good detective work. And for 2.5hr long film that sucks. Acting is pretty good, but not these actor's best. Also to the name of the film... why? Is it supposed to be a reference to how everyone affected by the kidnapping is prisoner to it? Or was it just a simple 1 word title that vaguely made sense? I mean seemed to me like they could have call it something relating to the serial kidnapper and would have felt like it made a lot more sense.
