Tommy Cowley lives a quiet life in a decaying apartment complex with his highly pregnant wife. The couple is attacked one day by a group of hooded young thugs, and after a shocking act of violence, Tommy is left to raise his newborn daughter alone. So shaken by the events that he's developed extreme agoraphobia, Tommy alternates days hiding out indoors in his new flat from imagined threats and intense therapy sessions aimed at bringing him back to normalcy. When the same hooded gang, seemingly intent on kidnapping his daughter, begins terrorizing his life again, he's torn between his paralyzing fear and protective parental instinct. With the help of a vigilante priest who has uncovered the genesis of this ruthless, potentially supernatural gang, Tommy must overcome his fears and venture into the heart of the abandoned tower block known as the CITADEL to save his family.If You Like this movie you can streaming Citadel movie without downloading HERE

Review For Citadel
Despite its defiantly un-PC 'fear-a-hoodie' message, the film nails its urban setting, filling every frame with a richly sustained sense of despair, decay and dread.Tom Huddleston-Time Out
This is a basic story, simply and directly told by Irish writer-director Ciaran Foy.
Roger Ebert-Chicago Sun-Times
It's all rather nausea-inducing and a bit frightening - not the film (I can only wish) but its subtextual message.
Rick Groen-Globe and Mail
"Citadel" attempts to transform mundane anxieties into the stuff of a horror film. But the initial tension of the premise dissipates like a slow leak.
Mark Olsen-Los Angeles Times
While Foy's efforts to create his own distinct modern urban mythos are ambitious, the result isn't entirely satisfying.
Bruce Demara-Toronto Star
Has an atavistic pulse, evoking a decaying society where elevators fail and bus drivers cower behind mesh grills.
Jeannette Catsoulis-New York Times
The film's pretty repugnant if taken as social commentary, but plays with contemporary fears and anxieties incredibly effectively.
Lewis Porteous-The Skinny
Despite being innovatively directed and punchily edited, as a genre piece this is lacking in depth and genuine dread.
David Parkinson-Radio Times
[A] confused, mostly clunky, but occasionally involving, low-budget horror/thriller ...
Charlotte O'Sullivan-This is London
Foy's talent lies in suggesting horror, not delivering it.
Henry Barnes-Guardian [UK]
A lean and mean horror set in a shattered city that is both all-to-recognisable as broken Britain while also feeling totally alien.
Tim Evans-Sky Movies
An absorbing redemption tale this may be, but one that comes with a lot of baggage.
Stefan Pape-HeyUGuys
Drawing from his own experiences of agoraphobia following a brutal mugging, Foy has taken the emerging genre of "hoodie horror" and pushed it in novel and disturbing directions.
Tara Brady-Irish Times
Plenty of pungent ideas and a nice line in urban terror. The final product falls short of the best in Brit horror, though.
Owen Williams-Empire Magazine
A shoddy, muddled film.
Niki Boyle-The List
A gritty sister to Philip Ridley's Heartless, this is similarly flawed but full of flair.
Rosie Fletcher-Total Film
By literally dehumanizing its antagonists, Citadel not only muddles its political message but also undermines the gravity of its main character's circumstances.
Josh Bell-Las Vegas Weekly
Writer-director Ciaran Foy knows his job, even if he's never done it before -- this is his feature debut -- and he handles it well.
Lawrence Toppman-Charlotte Observer
Although this film has a simple and predictable story setup, it takes a long time to develop. The first part of the film has a rather slow pace.
Robert Roten-Laramie Movie Scope
The concept eventually turns into predictably contrived genre fodder with muddled sociopolitical undercurrents.
Todd Jorgenson-Cinemalogue.com
A compelling inner city nightmare, with the supernatural elements barely masking a very real scenario.
Rob Vaux-Mania.com
