InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Raymond Sierra The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

gavin6942 Three hooded Eastern-European criminals burst into a home in a Madrid gated community, holding the family hostage in its own home, and forcing the father to empty his credit cards.The opening scene is creepy and disturbing, with visuals somehow reminiscent of "Timecrimes". While the two films are worlds apart, this just sets the tone for how disturbing everything will be. And "disturbing" is the operative word, as home invasion is the most disturbing horror subgenre because of its realism.A successful home invasion film feels real, feels like something that could really happen to any of us at any time. It is not a killer in the woods or an alien, but real criminals that can beat, kill or rape us on a whim. Such situations are rare (thankfully), but all too possible. This is, by the way, a successful one, right up there with the best (such as "Funny Games").The biggest complaint is that there is some poor dubbing at times, especially on the daughter. But if the film is watched in Spanish with subtitles, such a nuisance can be avoided.

mmoonwalker7 "Take your last breath!" (this film's tagline) is right! Secuestrados is a film guaranteed to leave with you the suffocating taste of the bitter ash of defeat.Things start out normal in Madrid as a family, (Jaime, Marta, and their daughter Isa), begin the moving process into a new, perfect home. There are telemarketers calling, problems with the gas company, "this goes here, that goes there" dialogue. All this, plus some mother-daughter arguing is served atop the mundane white noise of the shuffling moving crew, charged with the task of bringing the old into the new.Much in the style of the movers, Miguel Angel Vivas manages to update a classic scenario of home invasion without pandering. From the first startling moment of disruption to the last gnarled turn of fate, we see a stark realness and urgency that offers up not only what is baser and visceral for the characters, but also a glimpse at how they think, and ultimately, how they are disappointed.

HumanoidOfFlesh "Kidnapped" packs one hell of a punch.A Spanish couple and their teenage daughter move to a new house.But during the night all hell breaks loose as the family of three is taken hostage by three masked men.The climax ends in nihilistic bloodshed."Kidnapped" contains twelve scenes and plenty of suspense.In fact as the movie progresses the tension becomes almost unbearable and the violence becomes more ugly and hard-hitting.I must say that since James Watkins "Eden Lake" I haven't seen such vicious and harsh full-length horror debut.The camera work is phenomenal as is the acting,so kudos should go to its director Miguel Angel Vivas.If you liked "Eden Lake","Martyrs","The Strangers","Cherry Tree Lane","Inside" or "A Serbian Movie" check out this savage assault on the viewer's mind.10 kidnappers out of 10.

jerry_soung This is by far the most annoying junk I have ever seen. Don't believe a word about the plot and violence being authentic. There's nothing authentic here, from the beginning where the mother-daughter squabbling, to the unconvincing victims' behaviors (every single one of them find every opportunity to agitate the kidnappers, where you'd think they should be scared out of their wits and being docile). The kidnappers are what you can see in "Dumbest Criminals".Five minutes after the kidnap starts, I wanted to grab a gun and silence the entire family of three to stop their very, very annoying, non-stopping babbling/whimpering/screaming.Now while I'm typing this, I really wanted to find out the director/producer's emails and send them hate emails. Oh, BTW, Netflix should just remove this junk to save some storage space. Shish...
