Lucas S Um filme sofrível que não consegue responder as perguntas mais básicas que são trazidas pelo roteiro, parece que foi escrito e dirigido com a maior preguiça possível e mesmo que seja observado um esforço nas atuações não é o suficiente para carregar o filme que parece ter medo do que ele mesmo escolheu como tema para abordar e com isso beirando a falta de respeito com todos os que foram afetados aquele dia. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 05/15/25 Full Review Abdellah K Worst movie of all time so much boring so much ridiculous this movie has no sense scénario -0 action -0 suspense -0 story -0 Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/12/25 Full Review Marco L (CASTELLANO) Hay películas que, aunque estén bien hechas, no consiguen dejar huella. iRehén es una de ellas. Parte de un caso real, tiene momentos de tensión y cumple con lo básico, pero no logra transmitir lo que debería. La dirección es correcta, el ritmo aguanta, y la ambientación funciona en lo que respecta al suspense. El problema es que no hay emoción. Los personajes no están bien construidos, no empatizas, y eso hace que todo te dé un poco igual. Aunque intenta mantenernos al borde del asiento, nunca terminamos de preocuparnos por nadie. Y si no te importa lo que les pasa a los protagonistas, difícilmente puedes sentirte dentro de la historia. La crudeza del hecho real sobre el que se basa podría haber servido para algo mucho más potente, pero aquí se queda en una sucesión de escenas intensas que no calan. No es una mala película, se deja ver y seguramente a algunos les gustará más que a mí. Pero ese entusiasmo que algunos intentan vender sobre lo “imprescindible” que es, está claramente sobredimensionado. iRehén no molesta, pero tampoco emociona. (ENGLISH) Some films, even when technically solid, just don’t leave a mark. iHostage is one of them. Based on a real case, it has moments of tension and does what it’s supposed to, but it fails to deliver on an emotional level. The direction is competent, the pacing holds up, and the atmosphere builds suspense fairly well. The issue is: there’s no emotional weight. The characters aren't well developed, you don’t connect with them, and as a result, you don’t really care what happens. Even though it tries to keep us on edge, you never truly worry about anyone. And if you don’t care what happens to the characters, it’s hard to feel invested in the story. The harsh reality behind the real events could’ve been used for something far more powerful, but here it just becomes a sequence of tense scenes that don’t quite land. It’s not a bad movie—watchable, and some might enjoy it more than I did. But that buzz about it being “unmissable” is clearly overhyped. iHostage doesn’t offend, but it certainly doesn’t move you either. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/12/25 Full Review Rein u A brave attempt to turn this recent dramatic real event into a film. A difficult task, especially since there is not much action, while it is at the same time a matter of life and death for all involved. The perspectives of the hostage, the hostage taker and the intervention team are nicely balanced in the picture. A downside is the unrealistic macho behavior at times by e.g. the female negotiator. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/08/25 Full Review Lucas G This is the most boring movie I've ever watched. Movies should be entertaining even when based on a true story. This movie had no plot or purpose. I wish I hadn't wasted my time. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/06/25 Full Review Eye C A good thriller, sober, without the circus from Hollywood and that’s refreshing from time to time. I am not sure how Apple is taking this movie… Hate it… love it… or neither. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/05/25 Full Review Read all reviews
