You can watch Hostage (2005) for free on Hoopla.

When a mafia accountant is taken hostage on his beat, a police officer – wracked by guilt from a prior stint as a negotiator – must negotiate the standoff, even as his own family is held captive by the mob.

Claustrophobic tension thickens as a botched negotiation spirals into a frantic, multi-layered standoff. A weary cop finds himself trapped in a psychological chess match where every decision risks his own family's lives.
