Held for Ransom

Its a movie for grown up adults. Even though its contain some kind of actionscenes, its a drama.

A true story - a story that is as devastating as it gets. Going on a journey with someone who seems not to know what he is about to undergo ... well obviously he isn't otherwise he wouldn't go on this trip of his. Sometimes things just go south ... there is a premise, there is a truth ... and then there is what actually happens or how others perceive you.

Torture is always bad - and there are scenes here that are extremely disturbing ... knowing that they actually happened might make this difficult to impossible for some to watch too. This is not easy - and it's ok if you do not want to watch this. If you do you have to have a strong stomach to be able to watch this through ... there are a lot of things that happen to ... Daniel ... and a lot of things that happen to the viewer watching him and others endure what they have to ... even long after you may think it is over ...

Esben Smed is performing extremely well and strong in the role as Daniel. Fantastic dramatisation of actual events.

This was a poignant and deeply moving portrait of a family's desperate efforts to rescue their son from the grip of the horrific ISIS regime. I think this was a fitting tribute to the terrible experience Daniel Rye and the other hostages. Highly recommend this film.

RIP Jim Foley and all the thousands who were murdered by ISIS.

..drama about the mental and physical torture those poor kidnap victims of Isis had to endure

Well worth watching.
