Moviejournal: prisoner
Prisoner takes us into a believable place where dark and somber mood infused with redneck aggravation dominates the longish screen time. Jackman plays a brut and control freakish family man who can always be seen as a religious fanatic given a slight twist of the plot in any day.
The plot and story aside, being an uneducated control freak in modern times must be an extremely taxing endeavor. Increasingly apparent, the world is filled with conflicting info that we must learn to make choices that keep ourselves sane. this falls into another fallacy that is so well written by Taleb. (reminder to myself: must finish his latest book, not taking 2 years like last book!). The fact that everything conceivable are probably in a state of flux and conflict is a state of mind each of the social elite must fathom and diligently observe and digest in their chosen field.
Well back to the story, Gylanhaal plays the detective exceptionally well, albeit with a dollop of occasional dopiness that adds to the weight of the character. The old lazy part is easy to guess from the 2nd or 3rd appearance of the surprisingly calm old grandma. The story itself is palpable and based in realism, the film doesn't go out of its way to expose blood or violence which is appreciated.
a good rounded film but nothing to be classic about it in my book.
