Review of Stolen (2012) by Michael F — 13 Mar 2015
Wow, a really terrible movie. The opening heist was fun to watch so I thought the movie had some promise. I was wrong. The story sounds interesting so I don't totally blame the studio for letting this be made.
The writing was incredibly bad. I don't usually notice a weak script, but this one was terrible. I'm not a Nicholas Cage hater, but this movie has started taking me in that direction. The climax of the movie when he goes to get his daughter back is almost laughable.
The scene is full of cliches and amazingly bad directing. For example, the bad suddenly rises out of the water behind Cage although he was previously not in the water looking in. The bad guy's makeup was not believable either.
If you heard a brief synopsis of the story without watching the movie, it sounds okay. But as soon as you see or hear (the music was bad too) any of the movie, you see how much of a disaster this truly is.
