Editor’s note: Prisoners of the Ghostland (2021) in a nutshell: A confident blend of Action, Fantasy, Horror, Thriller, focused more on tone than spectacle. With Sion Sono at the helm, the film feels purposeful and well-paced. Performances (especially Nicolas Cage, Sofia Boutella, Nick Cassavetes) give the story human stakes. Clocking in at 1h 43m, the pacing is controlled, with room to breathe. Not universally praised, but there’s enough here for curious genre fans. “The granddaughter of the world's greatest leader is a hostage in the most dangerous place on Earth. Now only the deadliest man alive can save her.” sums up the film’s focus better than most trailers do. Worth a watch for the craft alone, even beyond the genre appeal.
