Review of Abduction (2011) by Buggy B — 29 May 2014

Ha, in reading all the reviews here, this movie is hated. I actually kind of liked it once I put myself into the mindset of a 14yr old girl and just went along for the ride. Sure its just a showcase for Taylor Lautner, and sure his acting is pretty terrible but I enjoyed the story of a teen who discovers the parents who raised him aren't his real folks, triggering events that leave him running for his life and pretending he's in a Jason Bourne movie.

I thought the action scenes were pretty good (despite the plot holes) No one can say that Taylor isn't at least athletic. There was also a great back up cast of talent including Sigourney Weaver, Jason Isaacs, Maria Bello, Alfred Molina.

I'll admit the romance/kissing scenes were very awkward but I did enjoy how the audience didn't know who to trust either until the very end. Kinda twisty. 5/30/14.
