    Kevin Bacon kidnaps asthmatic Dakota Fanning right out of resourceful mom Charlize Theron while Courtney Love makes she her doctor/pilot husband gets the ransom money in Trapped, a thriller that hangs on a lot of coincidence, but is still pretty efficient for what it is. It's well acted for the most part, though I've already forgotten who plays the husband, and there are a couple of crazy action beats, though the plot is perhaps a little confused at times. Bacon's character is vile in the extreme, but we're also expected to believe there's a reverse-Die Hard motivation behind the crime, which doesn't quite fit, not given their serial pattern. The bleached opener makes you think the movie will be much worse than it is. The bog-standard review might want to call this a bog-standard thriller, but the material is elevated by the actors and a fairly unusual plot. I just think it might have been better without the suddenly personal stakes, as the complication isn't really needed except to justify the parents putting their daughter's life at risk by fighting back. 4 years 4 months ago

    That scene when she's kissing him with underwear is just the most sexy scene I've ever seen! 12 years 9 months ago
