An interesting concept. The best part of the movie is shown within the first 3 minutes inside a tunnel. We never see that sort of thing again. John Goodman is great. Overall a bit of a let down.

Predictable, boring, bad acting from almost everyone, hamfisted exposition. I am not sure there was ever a moment that you actually felt like the cast was in any real danger. Everything was way too convenient and beyond suspension of disbelief territory.

There is actually a lot of good things going on. The problem is, that it all goes nowhere.

Not a masterpiece but a good example of the dystopian genre.

Bu senenin uzaylı filmi. Dünyayı ele geçiren kirpi uzaylılar ve insanlar arasında bir tuzak filmi çekilmiş. İlk 45 dakika karakterler ile tanışma faslı geçerken, ikinci yarı karakterlerin uzaylılara komplo kuramamasını izliyoruz. Bilinçli olarak yapılan bu durum klişe bir konuya dönüşüyor. Arkası yarın biten sonu, sıkıcı bir hal alıyor. Müzikleri harika. Hepimiz efesliyiz hepimiz pilseniz.

If you grafted a less subtle version of "The Battle of Algiers" onto the mini-series "V", you'd get something a lot like this movie. It's very much a procedural with the alien menace being a MacGuffin that drives the terrorists-in-action plot, with John Goodman seeming to fill the Jean Martin role as a cop trying to stop the plot. It's a solid film that many might find a little hard to follow since it lets many of the pieces unfold with no explanation until it all comes together in the end.

Captive State doesn't take the time it should to explore its themes, so it lacks the punch I'm sure it desires. Otherwise, it's a well-paced, well-acted sci-fi thriller that will surely keep viewers -- pardon the pun -- captivated for its relatively short running time.

Once I found out it was made by the guy who made Rise of the Planet of the Apes it seemed so obvious. He has a way with crafting these modern and contemplative (as much as you can be making popcorn flix in 2019) dystopian thrillers. It’s nice to see Ashton Sanders in something again.

A lot of good stuff but lacked a strong main character to take you through it all.
