Trafficked: A Parent's Worst Nightmare

No, the movie is not the latest and greatest. But it's not the worst, either. The fact that both Kristy Swanson and Dean Cain are {gasp!} outspoken Conservatives are undoubtedly what is driving most of the negative reviews. Reading them, you can tell that the writers didn't even watch the movie.

The audio could have used a little work. The vocals were at times overridden by the music and effects. Some of the lines were cringeworthy, but I find most of the hollywood drivel cringeworthy anyway, so take that with a grain of salt.

What I took issue with was the 20k a week fee. These guys were supposed to be the good guy, but they are, in my opinion, taking advantage of people. But, then again... it's fiction, so... there's thath.

If you want hollywood special effects, look elsewhere. If you want liberal leftist propaganda, look elsewhere. If you want a wholesome (as much as it can be based on the subject matter) that you can (and probably should) watch with your children, then this is the movie you've been looking for.

Don't watch it.

This movie could be condensed into 20 minutes. It has no idea whether it is trying to say "sex trafficking is bad" or "revenge is awesome." It's just a bore when it's not aggravating, a near complete waste of time.

Yeah, this 2021 movie titled "Trafficked: A Parent's Worst Nightmare" (aka "A Parent's Worst Nightmare") is a movie that, oddly enough, is based on sex trafficking, which in itself is a terrible topic.

And indeed, there have been movies out there that deal with the same issue, but doing so in a much more fulfilling way, in terms of it being a movie that brings entertainment - despite revolving around such atrocious things as sex trafficking. But "A Parent's Worst Nightmare" just didn't have the same impact as some movies of a similar nature.

Sure, "A Parent's Worst Nightmare" was watchable, but it wasn't an overly entertaining movie. And the reason for this was partially because of some inferior writing from writers Joel Paul Reisig, George P. Saunders and Scott Voshel. Which is some accomplishment in itself. I mean, three writers not being able to come up with something more worthwhile. But it is also due to some rigid characters and dubious acting performances.

The characters portrayed in "A Parent's Worst Nightmare" felt like wooden caricatures that hardly displayed any real or believable emotions or acted as one would think people would act when a family member is abducted and lost for over a month. It just took away so much believability from the movie as a whole.

All in all, then director Joel Paul Reisig just didn't bring contents to the screen where it mattered and "A Parent's Worst Nightmare" felt like a rather mundane and unnecessary movie, to be honest. This is not a movie that left a lasting impression with me, and I sat through it to the very end. Nor is it a movie that I will be thinking about, if someone mentions movies about sex trafficking. It just simply fell short of being outstanding or entertaining.

This 2021 movie is hardly one that I would recommend you wasting your time, money or effort on. My rating of "A Parent's Worst Nightmare" settles on a three out of ten stars.

Inane and amateurish in utmost, this bizarre and laughable tale seems to have been written by a young child trying to imagine what evil sex traffickers are like. Apparently the makers of this "film" are involved in extreme right-wing politics. To be honest I'm not american and have no idea who or what they are, but this movie is complete and utter trash.

Well, where shall I begin?! Besides incredible bad acting, script, camera work, and audio work this movie uses every cliché and racial stereotype one can think of. Save your time and watch "Trafficked with Mariana van Zeller" instead and you will actually get an inside of how human trafficking really works.
