Captivity (2007)

SAW 4?!!!!!!! Whoever said that saw a different film to me!

[1/10 · 24 July 2007]

I have never seen such an utter pile of rubbish in my life! I have never felt the need to write a film review before...however, on this occasion I feel it is my duty to tell the poor souls who are contemplating wasting over an hr and a half of their lives giving it a go because some of the reviews say it's a really good film! I fell into this trap...don't do it!!!!! How anyone can compare this film to Saw is completely beyond me! The acting was terrible...unless wide eyes and shallow breathing convince you that someone is really really scared! The plot was soooooo predictable...saw it coming a mile off and I was more tense and scared watching doctor who when I was a kid! The only redeeming factor is that it was so ridiculous and had so many blunders in it, that I actually got a laugh out of it on a few occasions...like when the main character is running away from the baddie...she runs into a bedroom and shuts and locks the door behind her....pushes a bed behind the door...puts a chair on top of the bed??? (cos that's gonna make a difference??)...the baddie gets to the door...the tension is building...NOT!...he smashes it!...I can tell you're scared now!...unlocks it...and opens it outwards!!!!! Hahahahahaha! Nearly weed laughing!!! Don't fink it was meant to make the audience laugh though...quite glad I did...or I might have cried!!! Friendly word of advice...don't bother and for anyone who has given this any more that a 3 out of 10...I want some of what you're on!!!!;)
