Can we have a prisoners discussion thread? This movie is a masterpiece

I love the christian vs pagan imagery throughout

it's pretty good but not a masterpiece

It actually has the symbolism and depth that people pretend BvS had.
Good film, OP.

You seem to not understand the amazing satanic/pagan undertones of Luthors scenes.
Most obviously he constantly talks about biblical events as if they are happening right now. Gods/Demons he speaks that as if they are interchangeable. He even calls Supermans mom a Witch. His monologue their was great.
The part I first realized this was his blood ritual with Zods body. The scene was shown as some super space tech that changes zod but it was truly a horrific ritual basically taking ones soul.
He literally does a sci fi style Séance in the deleted scene communinicating with a demon like general from apocolpyes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-MUzvASr8s
I love this mess of a movie. The demonic imagery reminds me of Childhood's End a wonderful novel if you don't know of it. The aliens in it are depicted as what western society views Devils, they even use a Ouija board to communicate. Creepy great stuff.

Therese some article online that explains it well but Im too lazy to find it. Basically it says Loki represents mysticism and the occult while Huge Jackedmans character represents Christianity and faith in a higher power

dunno about masterpiece because that really is a hard thing to define.
But its definitely incredibly well made, very intense and boasts great central performances too.
Can't wait for Jackman to be finished with Capeshit so he can get back to being in more quality films.
made me want to adopt jake gyllenhaals hairstyle in it. looked cool as shit
Denis must be a pretty big Radiohead fan... I watched Incendies the other day and it has You and Who's Army? at the start. Whereas Prisoners closes with Codex.

I agree OP.
I'd say Denis Villeneuve is one of the best directors working today.
>Prisoners
>Enemy
>Sicario
And now he's directing the new Blade Runner film with Harrison Ford and Ryan Gosling.

There are so many good things in place for the blade runner sequel. All the chess pieces are aligned. I will be shocked if it fails.
Posting prisoners cinematography
>much twitchy character depth
Okay movie though

Prisoners is THE example of inauthentic sensibility cinema. It doesn't get more juvenile "film buff" than this movie. Everything from the casting, to the themes, to the cinematography. It physically pains me to even think about it. Fincher was always the epitome of IMDB to me until this movie, but then Villenvue managed to topple him.
I like Jake's performance here.
His mannerisms, his accent, his sleuthiness was all good character work.
Bravo
