Never Let Go

This is an aceptable action movie, not a big block buster. It has some great movements.

A woman (the mistress of a married American politician who has had his baby) needs some vacation time while he's campaigning and figuring out how to tell his wife. She chooses a very restful place for her vacation: Morocco, where there are apparently kidnapers on every street corner. Her baby is stolen while she's on the beach, and she suddenly turns into Wonder Woman, leaping off of buildings, eluding the cops, and knocking our 4-5 armed people at a time with martial arts moves. Turns out she's some kind of U.S. special ops agent. If it sounds to you like a lame female version of "Taken", you would be right. If it sounds ridiculous to you, you would also be right. If it sounds to you like it might suck......You're right again! Now, you don't have to waste your time watching it! Two stars because the writers threw in some twists and turns, but they're not enough to salvage this mess.

I found it very riveting from start to finish. Unfortunately children from infacy to young girls ar kidnapped everyday. The writer was knowledgeable enough to point that whoever was doing the kidnapping was from a border country. I don't think that matters in the least in the end. They did overdo the action stuff and heralmost superhuman strength but I didn't mind after I became immersed in the movie.

loved it!

The acting isn't fabulous, but it's not terrible either. The story line is good, but maybe not put together as well as it could be. The second scene is pretty nebulous. Then, seriously, what mother takes a newborn on vacation into the middle east. Some of the connections are really big jumps. But the action is good and watching a vulnerable, but strong female character kick ass is always fun. There are secondary female characters who kick ass in their own way. In the end it all comes together for a satisfying thrill ride and what's not to love about that.

The story is half prejudice half evil and the woman is like batman without the cape. She does serious damage like the poor woman version of Jack Ryan. Just as believable, when you think about it. Haha! Crazy ride.
