“Boring would be an understatement. Nothing much to start with and an abrupt ending made the movie a yawwwwn. One and a half hours of drone would sum up the case. The movie didnu0026#39;t even live up to my already low expectations, what with the cast and all. Its another one of those u0026quot;guy kidnaps girl, threatens her kid, and makes her run around townu0026quot; movies.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eMaria was OK and she did try to do justice to her character, but her character in itself was very weak. I donu0026#39;t know from where they got the kidnapper. How lamer could he get? The kidnapping fraternity was put to shame! There wasnu0026#39;t much to the story line either except for endless driving and idle chitter chatter to increase the runtime. More like watching a soap opera, with a few car chases. There were bits and pieces missing throughout.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eKnock yourself out if you have nothing better to do during the day, but this is one movie I would not dearly recommend.”
