The Captive

The Captive, formerly Queen of the Night and Captives, is a 2014 Canadian thriller film directed by Atom Egoyan and co-written with David Fraser.

Starring Ryan Reynolds in a career defining performance as Matthew, a loving father caught in a race against time to find his daughter, Oscar-nominated Director Atom Egoyan's psycho thriller The Captive unravels the most extreme example of dissociation and child abduction.

Eight years after the disappearance of Cassandra, some disturbing indications seem to indicate that she's still alive. Police, parents and Cassandra herself, will try to unravel the mystery of her disappearance.

Critic Reviews:

• " In a sea of superhero movies, romantic comedies and horror, The Captive, is a good choice for those looking to go a little beyond simple entertainment. " – Gabriel Martínez

• " Egoyan trusts his talent to play with mystery, but also relies on the public to gradually put together a puzzle made of family drama and the suspense of a thriller. " – Luis Fernando Galván

• " “The Captive” may appear to bite off a little more than it can chew but it's one of the most satisfyingly baroque thrillers of the year, and thanks to a perfectly judged performance by Ryan Reynolds, it's quietly heartbreaking, too. " – Scout Tafoya
