Abduction

First off I'd like to start by saying I'm huge Scott Adkins fan. With that said my rating is slightly biased because if he wasn't in this movie I would of rated it lower.

Overall this movie is ok. The premise is incredibly silly, the action is sub-par, and the acting was mediocre. However it does good job of keeping you engaged enough to want to know what happens.

The second half is miles better then first half which is utterly confusing and nonsensical. But sadly even that is short lived, once you get to ending you'll see yourself scratching your head saying why?

Please also keep in mind as forewarning this movie is sci-fi. Despite the cover art and description reflecting more of action oriented movie. Don't be fooled like I was.

Let's face it, we don't expect much from these type of B-grade action flicks, but oddly enough I enjoyed the martial-arts-meets-sci-fi cross-genre. Sure the plot had issues (e.g. why the stutter? comedy? fail), and the screenplay was amateurish writing to go with the sub-par directing, but the fight choreography and story premise was enjoyable and thus a 6/10 from me.

In Vietnam, the British citizen Quinn (Scott Adkins) goes outside a fountain in a park stuttering and with no recollection of his life seeking out the British Embassy. He is sent to a psychiatric hospital by the police and intrigues Dr. Anna (Truong Ngoc Anh) with his memories. Meanwhile the professional hitman Conner (Andy On) sees his beloved wife Maya (Lily Ji) be kidnapped during the night by mysterious men with hood. His investigation brings him to the mysterious fountain, where he stumbles upon Anna that is checking what Quinn said. They see that the physic laws do not work at the spot. She brings Conner to the hospital where they have to fight with Quinn to save their lives. What is the secret of the weird men?

"Abduction" is a good film, with a story with great potential that could have been great. The story of people from another dimension is intriguing but is partially wasted with a poor screenplay and low-budget. Despite the flaws, it entertains and is prepared for a sequel. My vote is six.

Title (Brazil): Not Available

From the trailer looked like an action movie however in reality it is not clear what this movie actually is. The storyline is confused to say the least and till the end you are waiting for it to make sense but... You wait for nothing.

The acting is laughable but not in a good way, none of the actors pass the mark

I am trying to find somwthing positive to say but i just cant find a single reason to recommend this movie. Please watch something else

I like Scott Adkins, pretty on par with any B-list Bruce Willis, Vinnie Jones or Jason Statham film. Entertaining, doesn't need a second watch, Average movie experience and time well spent. I do like his movies and most are actually pretty decent.

With my recent interest in B-list films grows I keep finding good films that likely will ever get any attention unless searched for. As an avid film and show watcher I am always looking for something that may peek my interest, mainly because I have seen pretty much everything else. I am on a search for good, less than know films that will still bring entertainment. Because they deserve to be seen as well and get noticed.
