Ma fille, enlevée sous mes yeux

Found so many hilarious moments in this movie. Acting is a bit iffie but the funny surely makes up for it. The mother does do too much running around for me but I'll deal with it for the funny.

So she can write help in sawdust with her foot, but the MULTIPLE times that she's wrecking her life and someone else's, she couldn't grab a pen and paper? He can't see every single move she makes, so why did it take her so long to attempt that?

Everything she's saying sounds like a bad joke, and she sounds increasingly deranged yet no one suspects that more is going on. The husband doesn't even call the cops when she threatens to kill herself. No one is asking where the daughter is while she's doing this.

I caught this movie about halfway through, but the villain Carter kept moaning about his grievances towards her that I don't feel any need to catch what I missed. I just got to the point where I had to see how it ended. This is one of those absurdly silly movies that you can't believe you're watching. The villain even called her a rideshare lol!

I file this movie under a specific category: it's implausible and dumb, but I had to see how things unfolded. To call this an action thriller would be inaccurate- it's really a comedy drama with a dash of suspense. There were times the actors' facial expressions and decision making were so laughable. And the ending scene with the family hugging a mere feet from the captor's corpse was out of place.

Nit picking a made-for-TV movie is pointless, but in the seconds that the kidnapper turns off his headset, that would have been the perfect time for this mom (played by Olivia Wilde's lookalike Scottie Thompson) to alert authorities that her daughter was taken. And sadly we never figure out how this idiot kidnapper gets sound devices placed in the main couple's house to begin with. For the course of a year no device was ever found and he was able to get in and out of the house unscathed. Talk about luck.

So despite the inconceivable story and lack of twists and turns, it was tempting to watch.

This was pretty bad. Acting was good but things that happened were unreal. My favorite part was the "END".

I know this movie is bad. But dear god it was so funny and such a fun experience to laugh at the terrible writing! Check it out if your into so bad it's good.
