Kidnap

**It's now or never! A mother's fight back!**

Truly shocking for people blindly following the words of critics. This is really a good film. I totally enjoyed it. Well, it was not like I never saw such film. In a century of motion picture history, hundreds of similar films were made. This is just another one, but there's nothing wrong with it. People wrongly judged it. The pace of the film was rocket speed. So basically, there's no time for one to keep looking for flaws. If they do, then they're not enjoying the show. They missed out everything, hence end up bashing it. Just like the clowns, aka film critics.

It was another kidnap film that Halle Barry in it, that's similar to her previous film 'The Call'. It did not take long to get into the action. A hardworking mother, going through divorce, fighting for her son's custody. While engaging in a phone call, she loses her son in an amusement park. The alert mother quickly jumps into pursuing when he was seen forcefully taken in a stranger's car. The remaining events take place on the road, with car chases, with a twist before the conclusion.

Nicely written screenplay and well performed actors, particularly Halle Berry. I have never seen she had played such an energetic role in the recent time. Whatever the storyline is, it's kind of an inspiring film. How a mother fought for her son. Totally a mother instinct. You can't simply expect like the film 'Taken'. It might not be realistic, but cinematically honest. The same thing happens in the animal world too. Sad that the film released after so many delays. Moreover, how people responded to it. Believe me, it is a nice film and I definitely suggest it to all.

_8/10_

So amidst a child custody battle, “Karla” (Halle Berry) takes her young son “Frankie” (Sage Correa) to the park for some fun. Whilst she takes an important phone call he gets snatched and she only just manages to see him squashed into a car. She quickly sets off in pursuit and for the next ninety minutes we follow her most unlikely chase. Unfortunately, she dropped her phone in the car park so has no way to summon help. Is it her disgruntled ex who is behind this? Is it maybe just someone on the production trying to save the kid from more screen time than absolutely necessary? Well mom ain’t giving up as they leave the city heading who knows where. She does manage at one stage to force a confrontation and is told that for $10k she can have him back, but that part of the storyline is so completely ridiculous that again you begin to wonder just what made Berry see anything worth doing in this increasingly preposterous film. To be fair to it’s star, she does imbue her character with a degree of panic and desperation as the thing moves along, but the scenarios are just plain ridiculous and serendipitous to be taken seriously on just about any other level. Maybe wouldn’t mess with her wielding a shovel, though,
