Critic Reviews of "Captive - Season 1"
Common Sense MediaJanuary 03, 2017Compelling true crime series chronicles real kidnappings.
The Young FolksDecember 12, 2016The testimonials themselves are gripping, as they range from touching to frightening. In many cases, watching this series is to be a witness to the innocence of the well-meaning brushing up against the trauma of the brutalized, and it's not pretty.
We Got This CoveredDecember 08, 2016If additional seasons of the series make their way to Netflix in the coming years, one hopes that Captive's creators will learn to better let these stories - of survival, struggle, human nature, and chilling circumstance - speak for themselves.
MTVDecember 08, 2016The third installment, "Lucasville," demonstrates how the series's focus on the here-and-now hobbles its attempt to tell a more resonant story.
GuardianDecember 09, 2016This offshoot of the true-crime genre (Making a Murderer and so on) is another effective way to experience the worst moments in other people's lives from a safe distance.
Los Angeles TimesDecember 08, 2016It is cinematic and slickly produced, with production value visible in nearly every frame, including impressionistic re-creations and gorgeous aerial shots of Rio de Janeiro.
AV ClubDecember 07, 2016It's a compelling topic, and the series certainly delivers the expected drama, albeit in a heavy-handed manner, meaning those looking for a docu-diversion should find it worthy of delving into.
