Taking Your Daughter

All you have to do is watch the trailer because the whole story is within it. You know a movie is bad when the edited trailer has all the telling parts of the story. Not that I was going to download and watch anyway but the trailer will save anyone the time on watching......how sad.

Mr & Mrs Bloom and Detective Hopkins have to be some of the creepiest characters I have seen in a TV movie. Yikes! these folks were repulsive!

I was looking forward to this one for a while. Unfortunately, the execution is way too clumsy. The mother's quest to find her daughter was mostly dull, Morgan Obenreder and Monroe Cline were wasted, and the film has too much illogical content: a captive apparently doesn't need to use the bathroom, a certain culprit conveniently goes down with little evidence of wrongdoing, daylight appears during a night scene, and someone says "I love you" to the last person she should say it to, in about that order.

I thought that the film could've benefitted from more focus on Rebecca Marshall's character and her motivations, as she's the only real standout.

It's not that bad even I fast forward after 20 minutes. Given its TV movies, bring the joy and excitement already.

1. Everything happens so quickly. 2. The mum is in a rush! 3. You can easily predict what will happen next. 4. They move from the different scenarios without showing what happens in the middle. 5. Melissa or whatever her name is, her acting!! So weird! 6. Don't recommend it at all.
