‘Captivity’ Movie Review

(By David Lay) Elisha Cuthbert brings the sexy back in Captivity, the newest “gore for the sake of gore� horror flick to come out of annals of a dark, disturbed Hollywood. Now, I have seen (and to some degree enjoyed) the Saw series, but this stinker of a flick was just too much.
Its not just that this movie is grotesque, its that it is also completely pointless, endless, and just plain stupid. Director Roland Joffe, from The Killing Fields and… *ahem* Super Mario Brothers: The Movie, puts it all on the line in this modern day story of torture, kidnapping, betrayal and…Love?
But seriously, this is one flawed film. Aside from the direction, the acting was terrible. Cuthbert was far better in The Girl Next Door and Daniel Gillies, who peaked in 2004’s Bride and Prejudice, adds absolutely nothing to the movie……….
