Seized - Gekidnappt

I pretty much know what to expect with most Scott Adkins movies, and this was exactly that. Decent actions sequences, cliche plot.

Mario van Peebles was fun to see, and he really chewed up the scenery in a pleasant way.

This movie exists, and it can kill some time, but it's neither memorable nor something that has to be seen.

The good: what every action movie fan craves for: lots of non stop killing and fighting and actor Scott Adkins delivers just that.

The "story": Scott Adkins' kid is kidnapped and now he is pressured by crime boss Mario van Peebles to liquidate all of his enemies. And so it goes...

Any bad? Well, it is still a B-movie, so dont expect Oscar winning dialogues or photography, these kind of movies serve only 1 purpose: non stop action. As much as possible that can fit into 90 minutes.

No jokes this time around. No problem with that. The action isnt superb, because there aint a lot of original action stunts, but it'll do just fine.

If you like Scott, then you know how all is films are. The fight scenes are awesome and always on point and for that I gave him 5 stars. The acting is okay but I Like Scott so I'm okay with it. Got me to forget about life for a few hours and for that I thank the cast and crew

The pacing is good. The storyline is predictable but it doesn't stop it from being entertaining. Scott Adkins does what he does best - fight off bad guys. Mario VP seemed to be having fun. The action sequences are nicely done. Just good performances all around.

Our hero, Nero, possesses very special skills. His son is kidnapped and in order to save him he is forced to go on a killing spree. Yes, it's 'Taken' once again, with some variations. It plays out (probably intentionally) like a computer game. The dialogue can sometimes be cartoonishly clunky. Exciting at times, it did succeed in holding onto this viewer until the end. Ok but quickly forgotten.
