Art sadly imitates life as the long-awaited Haitian action-comedy Kidnapping Inc. finally hits the big screen four years after tragic events during filming. Director/co-writer Bruno Mourral satirizes the unceasing violence, poverty, and corruption that plagues the country. An opening card explains how Haiti came to its current predicament with a primer on pervasive social, economic, and racial inequities. Kidnapping hostages for ransom is a widespread problem. The film gets big laughs by mocking a terrifying and serious issue while illustrating the difficulties ordinary citizens face to survive.
