Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!

Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

khatirana One of the worst films ever. In few minutes they find the first link to solve the kidnapping but hey lets wait 2 o 3 days wasting our time....again in the club the suspect is there but again ...hey lets give him a chance to run... such a wasted opportunity with the 2 main leads being quite the tough girls but time after time a simple push seems to be enough for said tough girls to fall over. There are bad films that are so bad are funny. This one cannot even claim that.Unfortunately is predictable, stupid, unbelievable. ...pls do not waste your time with this rubbish, I could not even finish watching was so awful. Cannot understand how someone can give this thing 5 stars...would have give it 0 if I could. Wish the option was there in this case

mountaingoat100 This Lifetime movie is not one of their true life crime pictures, but rather a variation on Liam Neeson's own movie of the same name. There are parallels, as NYC cop Benz sees off her daughter and friend on a trip to Moscow. Despite trying to warn her about the dangers, its clear the airhead will soon be ignoring mom and looking for fun in a foreign land. When the inevitable happens and the girls are snatched by a sex trafficking gang, Benz snaps into action. She flies to Russia, takes no guff from the ineffective cops, and with help from an Embassy security officer, is soon gunning down Russkie gangsters as she hones in on the captives. The men here are hopeless, either obstructive, unhelpful or murderous. It makes a refreshing change to see a movie where two women take bold decisions. This is a great opportunity for the versatile Benz, who could have a whole new career if there only there was a demand for female action films . She continues to make interesting choices and it doesn't hurt that she is also insanely attractive

edwagreen The Russians got more than they bargained for when the daughter of the American Ambassador goes with a friend on spring break to Russia. Both quickly fall victim to a slave trafficking group with ties all over the world.Sophie's mother is a widowed police officer who doesn't know how to take no for an answer. She quickly runs off to Russia to pursue her daughter's captors and in the process uncovers a major officer involved in this slave group and teaches the Russians something about policing policies.This is a fast-paced action thriller again showing the determination of a mother to free her daughter. She was even better than American officials.The movie, based on true facts, teaches us that slave trafficking is alive and well throughout the globe.

zensixties I just saw this film on Lifetime. Not only is the title, but practically every single element of the original script of Taken is used in this one. I'm not saying it's without any redeeming qualities whatsoever. It's supposed to be set in Moscow, however the filming location is Sofia, Bulgaria, so if you're not familiar with that part of the world (I am) you probably won't notice the difference. Where to begin. At the beginning of Sophie's trip to Moscow her mother Stevie asked if she has her passport. Actually for an American to go to Moscow you need more than a passport, you need a visa. We get the relationship thingy between Stevie (Julie Benz), an FBI agent scared of commitment after her husband died (sound familiar?) and Devlin. Anyway, Sophie and her friend Janie, daughter of the US Ambassador to Russia, arrive and are restricted to the US Embassy, so sneak out for one night on the town, and...wait for it....they are taken. From there the script follows the original Taken pretty much verbatim, except it's Russia, not France, and it's Chechen Mafia (writers obviously threw in that due to the Boston bombing), not Albanian one.So two women, Stevie, and fellow leather jacket wearing CIA agent find the spotter, Bobby, use cell phones to trace the two abductees, and zero dark thirty their way out of that hellhole. Sound familiar?At the end it says 46,000 people have been victims of sex trafficking this year. I can guarantee you none of them were the daughter of the US Ambassador to Russia...or any other country for that matter. As with the original, and better but still ridiculous film Taken, abducting American girls on vacation in European countries is not just uncommon, but extremely unlikely, at least for daughters of FBI agents and US Ambassadors. Finally I'd like to address the marketing strategy "Inspired by a true story". What has been pointed out already is this most likely refers to the fact that somewhere in the world as some time, someone was abducted by sex traffickers....unless they're referring to the Cleveland thing, but Julie Benz isn't quite Charles Ramsey, and definitely not Liam Neeson. Anyway, it's not a total throw away, as it's worth watching on some level, if only to see a little bit of Sofia, Bulgaria (even though it's supposed to be Moscow). The only thing that would've made this good is if at the end Stevie would end with this line: "I feel like Liam Neeson in Taken".
