Captive

Actually it's a first person account of what happened during their kidnapping and also is a first person account from the kidnapper and also from army and police services. That just never happens, it shows how blind I was and bias could be a person. How a solution is applied hands down just because. It was pretty uncomfortable to watch survivors tell this experiences but life is as rude as it is, also amazing how insensitive could the public be.

This is a really good documentary series. It is not boring at all, as other reviewers suggest. Each episode is different from the other, they are mostly all very interesting, engaging, full of suspense and unexpected twists. I really liked it.

The entire intent of this show is to generate sympathy for these people's stories. But if you ask me, morons that go into war zones and try to spread peace and love deserve exactly what they got. That's what makes the show a struggle to watch all the way through each episode. Fairly slow pacing with a constant "look what I went through" that completely clashes with the obvious idiocy of their choices.

Man this is a boring tell. If you thin you will get thrilling excitement here. You will get disappointed like me. Really nothing to see. I think these stories would have come better of as books. It is just repeating the same over and over again, and there is no suspense at all. Even as a documentary, it really not giving you any in depth knowledge of the different scenarios. It's just... boring, at best.

Altought the cinematography and the editing is amazing, most of the situations involve muslims captors and caucasians captives looking for strength by praying; to me it feels extremely biased because it looks like religious propaganda. Anyway if you get pass that it's a couple of interesting stories involving dumb people who thinks their faith will save their life from the most dangerous countries and when they get caught they beg government for help. That's pretty much it.

The series depicted anti Islam and Muslim hate .Showed Islam as some sort of evil religion and that mischief was only caused by Muslims .To correct a very important fact that chubby hypocrite misquoted Islam to have been as press by the sword that was never the case .Islam was never spread by the word or by war it is and will be a peaceful religion.

It is informative albeit the info is too selective as I will describe below. Its low pace make you bored sometimes. Besides, the transition periods are kept longer than needed and this increase the feeling of boredom. Its reenactments are very realistic and needs to be appraised. However, there is a very strong bias implicit in the selection of incidents. I am normally not and don't want to be a politically-driven critic but here, the producers seem to act politically-driven. Please look at all the episodes -- All are "muslim"-driven atrocities. I, like most muslims would do, condemn these acts. Yet, making such a documentary but selecting events with solely one-type of perpetrator casts doubt about the intention of those producers. This at least funs the flames. I protest.
