Abducted

To the guy knocking others using fake ID's. I see 2 other 10 star reviews who are obviously associated with the film in some way.

I honestly don't see how this movie won any awards. I wasn't expecting a "Taken" quality movie, although was hoping it would be, but it was definitely worse than I expected. I watched about 20 minutes or so and then started skipping through the movie hoping it would get better and then just gave up and skipped to the end since I hated to at least not finish it. If you like British movies or like Mark Harris then you "might" like this, but I wouldn't recommend it to my friends. I enjoy these types of movies, so I'm hoping the next one will turn out better.

They must Have trawled the world to find so many poor actors,

The acting was wooden, the plot was poor. 1h26 of my life I won't get back. I guess they were trying to make something like Taken but unfortunately failed way short of both Taken films. The difference being that Liam Neeson has screen presence and can work his character with much more ability. The whole premise of the film was to play on Mark Harris' boxing career and his name as a local hero and warrior, but the fight scenes were terrible. Mark Harris' acting was probably the worst in the whole film, but that was a tightly run contest. It's very rare of ex-sportsmen to make a successful job of acting, and I think only Vinnie Jones has got anywhere close. Do yourself a favour, watch something else instead.

Aside from the lead actor not being anywhere near up to the standard of being in a film let alone the lead, there are too many holes in this story that needed to be answered. It was an important topic matter but it was a dealt with in an amateurish way that really only offered some violent scenes of retribution that felt good for a moment. A wasted opportunity.

I don't know what all the bad remarks are. Loved it. It wasn't the same as all the Hollywood no sense and was raw, true, dark, violent and there was nothing held back. OK, I guess it is very deep..but don't we think this was intentional. I don't see this was a action film but a dark crime drama. It was a very much like " nil by mouth ' film. Yes it turned my stomach in places so I'd imagine women and some men may not like this. It's not dressed up. But I do think it's very realistic. I read about the guy getting drunk when family getting beaten and losing daughter...I can only see that yes he sot the plot his world upside down. We don't all act the same way and let's remember ... It's a movie....so common sense doesn't always prevail as if he handed himself into the police' then game over - no point. ....if you like dark horrific crime film...your like this. If you like dressed up Hollywood you won't. It's no taken.
