Abduction Sloppily Written & Acted Action Film

Opening shot: A car zooms down a tree lined road. A cute guy is seated on the front windshield laughing his head off,Nike SB Dunk High Heel Blå Sort, yelling at the driver to go faster. They reach the party. We get a round of fist bumps and a chorus of 'Man, youe so crazy!' followed by 'I totally am,Nike Air Presto Vævet Sko Grøn Sort, bro!' and a whole lot of beer. Windshield guy,Nike Kobe Drøm Sæson 2 White Blue sorte sko, Nathan (Lautner), wakes up the next morning shirtless and on the lawn where his dad finds him, then takes him home and forces him to spar with him. This little scene sets the film mood perfectly. It says, 'I am made for 15-year-old boys; I am a mash-up of everything they may find cool.'

The first thing you discover about Nathan is that he really isn the sharpest tool in the box. He a brown guy raised by white,Herre Wholesale Online Nike Free Run 2 Grøn Sort Hvide Sko, blonde-haired and blue-eyed parents without ever questioning his parentage or suspecting anything. While working on a school paper with his girlfriend Karen (Collins),MBT Kaya Schuhe, he discovers his picture on a missing kids?website and thus discovers that his parents aren biologically related to him.


Before he has time to fully process this fact, a bunch of guys bust into his house, murdering his parents and forcing both, him and Karen, to flee for their lives. Hot on their heels are both the CIA and Koszlow (Nyqvist), the guy who ordered the hit on his parents. Theye both after a top-secret encrypted list that Nathan has courtesy of his estranged biological father.

Don expect much on the acting front; at least not from Lautner and Collins. When Lautner isn kicking ass,Nike Zoom Kobe VII sort lilla blå sko, he lolling around looking extremely awkward, possibly reading his lines off of a teleprompter. Nyqvist,see more, who was so thoroughly badass in The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo trilogy,Nike Air Max 2011, comes off as a rather campy caricature of a villain.

The film suffers from an embarrassing script full of laughably bad lines, worn out clichs and huge plot holes. For example, both the villains and the CIA repeatedly intercept Nathan calls on his mobile phone; yet the plans that he makes with his friend via the same exact mobile phone are never intercepted and allow him to stay one step ahead of his pursuers. Sigourney Weaver,Nike Free 5.0 V4 Sort løbesko, playing Nathan shrink and an undercover ex-CIA agent, is pretty much the only character with a shred of a soul.

The only possible reason for this film existence is that Hollywood powers-that-be are attempting to turn Taylor Lautner into a fully-fledged action hero; a teenage Jason Statham if you will. He actually doesn do a half-bad job on those terms; he definitely at his most animated and engaging when he running for his life or beating the crap out of people. Either way,Nike Air Max 90 sorte sko, the only thing that Abduction has going for it is the fight scenes; and the fact remains that not even its very talented supporting cast can salvage the rest.
