One of Denis Villeneuve's best films, with Hugh Jackman, arrives on HBO Max

Denis Villeneuve is one of the most important directors of the 21st century. The filmmaker behind Dune, Arrival and Blade Runner 2049 has become, on his own merits, a reference for cinema around the world. But not only for his incursions into science fiction, but also for everything he did before, such as Sicario or Prisoners.

Now, this latest film, Prisoners, has just arrived on HBO Max to the delight of all fans of his filmography. The same platform where we can watch Dune now has this gem from the director that dates back to 2013 and is considered one of the best thrillers that have been made in recent years.

Hugh Jackman and Jake Gyllenhaal, hand in hand

Prisoners tells the story of Keller Dove, a man facing his worst nightmare. Anna, his six-year-old daughter, has disappeared with her friend Joy. He can’t keep track of her and, as time goes by, panic takes over. Desperate, he decides to take matters into his own hands. But how far is he willing to go to find out the whereabouts of his daughter?

Beneath this synopsis lies a suffocating but deeply affecting film that boasts an all-star cast, led by Hugh Jackman and Jake Gyllenhaal. Also appearing are Terrence Howard, Viola Davis, Paul Dano and Maria Bello, who under Villeneuve’s baton show some of their best performances.

Undoubtedly, this is a great discovery that makes HBO Max continue to add as one of the platforms that provides the highest quality content to its subscribers. It not only has magnificent series such as Succession, The Last of Us or Game of Thrones, but it is also at the top in terms of film content.
