Hostage

Over 90% of the movie is like a super common late show where you ear everything. Many words are too much, like a free agression to everything.

The main points are that you will applaude the guy that should be a "red coat" (the ones that nobody cares about). The main actress just read texts showed behind the camera, some scenes are worst than everyday school theatre.

So, just watch and don't get your hopes high. And don't try to make sense of the movie. Has so many failures that the best one is getting a wireless phone that uses a lithium battery.

A fun campy low budget flick. You don't come across many ultra low budget movies that are as fun to watch as HOSTAGE!

Enjoyed the disturbing story and it was refreshing to see new talent.

Great flick.

Seeing lots of reviews by people that clearly did NOT watch this sick movie. A good time for anyone who loves thrillers.

It's nice to see Canadian filmmakers get something done.

A good watch for the holiday season.

This movie is terribly hard to watch. I had to quit halfway through. The F word is rampant and characters are creepy. Doesn't make much sense and no likable characters at all.

I saw this on a streaming site and knew it was going to be trash. Sometimes trash can be fun, but it's not the 80s anymore, where people put their heart into low budget horror movies and did something either clever, adorable with latex masks or shocking.

Now it's just slow, badly lit, digitally filmed, color graded to hell with ugly green or yellow tint, bad soundtrack and scripts written by what can only be 3rd graders with learning disability. I could make a better film with 50k and an Iphone.

The acting is atrocious as well, with the squeaky voice lead being virtually impossible to watch.

Naturally, as a modern movie, everything has to be slow, so 80 minutes end up feeling like 150. This has less narrative density than an episode of a tv show.

Who funds this stuff? There must be some kind of funding scheme going here which I'm not yet privy to.
