Captive State is a sci-fi movie directed by Ruper Wyatt who decides to take it easy and tell a completely different story than the typical Hollywood blockbuster. It is in this decision where the film gains strength. But let's be clear, Captive State is not a perfect movie, far from it. But it is an extremely imaginative film, with such intriguing concepts as revolution and aliens. It is a master class that explains how a revolutionary cell operates in a fictitious situation and gives us a thriller that makes us tense at times and intrigues us in others. Despite not having fully explored characters, the film builds an intriguing world with well-shot scenes and an ending that will leave you glued to your seat and asking for more. Captive State is not perfect, but it is definitely a recommendation.

Plot summary
Nearly a decade after occupation by an extraterrestrial force, the lives of a Chicago neighborhood on both sides of the conflict are explored. In a working-class Chicago neighborhood occupied by an alien force for nine years, increased surveillance and the restriction of civil rights have given rise to an authoritarian system -- and dissent among the populace.

An underrated movie
Really intriguing and well done
I was very surprised by the low reviews. This film has everything and I can't believe I never heard of it. It's a very smart sci fi thriller with many twists and turns.
Goodman Owns This
Very stylish and cool movie that really makes you feel like you are there, under pursuit/surveillance, in danger, fighting for your existence.
This could be any 'state' where a region is occupied by an aggressive agent, this time it happens to be aliens.
Throws up some great moments that I won't spoil.
However the element I really want to stress is the performance of Goodman, he is simply stellar in this!
