A story that's too fascinating to pass by...

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

The movie is so so, not so bad for watching, a standard Hollywood action movie. Not better, not worse than thousands of the similar ones. But, some things are so unlogical, that you can't miss it. 1. You need to find some cash in some very short period of time. What do you do? You rob the bank, of course. But, this bank, with the detector of temperature, with the BIIIIG, steel door of the safe, which is opened with the at least 9 or more digit code (we could see that when the director of the bank opened the door in the presence of police), they save the GOLD BARS above the sewer???!!!! All you need to do is to drill the bottom of the safe and the gold bars will fall in your lap. In this case, it was some electric welding machine and the bars were melted and fell down. So convenient. 2. The daughter of the main character is in the trunk of the taxi. The kidnapper set the taxi in fire. The most logic way to open the trunk is to use your jacket to wrap your hands and to try to open the trunk. NOOO. For our hero, it is better to go with the car in the lake, THEN to try to open the trunk, when your daughter is drowning in the confined space. INSANE. Of course, the car didn't sink immediately, it was on the surface until the director of the movie needed. When the fight was over, that moment the car sunk. So nice. 3. The main character was carrying his daughter with both hands (so, nothing was in them, but his daughter), but when he was attacked, the iron bar was in his hands to finish the kidnapper. So convenient. Again, the movie is a standard, average action movie. Not better, not worse than any other. And not worth of remembering.

It does what it needs to do. It's a Nic Cage actioner where he has to save his daughter from a psychopathic villain who used to be his best friend. That's all you need to know. All that's left is to shut off your brain and try to have fun with it. Nicolas Cage does what you'd expect from him, and if you're a fan of that, then the odds are that you'll get a kick out of him. Josh Lucas really steals the show as the main baddie and Danny Huston does a fine job with his supporting role.All in all, a fun flick to kill a night at the end of a long day with. Go in expecting little more than that and you'll probably leave pleased.

Story: How often have we seen a bank robbing team spilt up with one turning on the rest when a job goes bad? It's easy to create the basic tension between the characters, you add in the resilient cop and we get the basic three way battle, all out to outsmart each other. Having the kidnapped daughter involved makes the villain of the piece look even more villainous. Sounds basic and it is, don't expect any massive twists or turns just enjoy the story unfolding. (7/10)Actor ReviewNicolas Cage: Will the mastermind of the bank robbers who gets caught, fresh out of prison he wants to live a normal life but his old partner has other plans for him. Good performance from Cage, do what he needs to do without really excelling. (7/10)Josh Lucas: Vincent the twisted former partner of Will who has been through some hard times and even faked his own death biding his time until he can get his money from Will. Good villainous role that does enough to make himself worse than just an old friend out for revenge. (8/10)Danny Huston: Tim the FBI agent who has been tracking Will for years putting his own personal life at risk and just when he thinks he has him he loses out on catching him with the money. Typical FBI agent role, that uses his hat to try and making him look different. (7/10)Malin Akerman: Riley a member of the robbery team that gets away and has turned her life around to become more honest. She helps Will when he needs to resources of his old life to save his daughter. Good supporting role. (6/10)Sami Gayle: Alison Will's daughter who resents him after his time away who gets kidnapped and tries to outsmart her kidnapper. Simple 'Help' performance that offers nothing new. (6/10)Director Review: Simon West – Good direction to create a simple to watch thriller. (7/10)Action: Few car chases that look good but not as much action as you would expect. (7/10)Thriller: Good thriller that keeps you pulled in to see what will happen next. (8/10)Settings: New Orleans makes for a good setting showing off the carnivals there. (8/10)Suggestion: This is one for the thriller fans out there to enjoy, it could appeal to the more casual fans as well being easy to watch. (Thriller Fans Watch)Best Part: Will's robbery, just nonsense style.Worst Part: Where did they get the information to be ready at the start?Action Scene Of The Film: Will trying to escape the opening chase.Believability: No (0/10)Chances of Tears: No (0/10)Chances of Sequel: NoPost Credits Scene: NoOscar Chances: NoBox Office: $2 MillionBudget: $35 MillionRuntime: 1 Hour 35 MinutesTagline: 12 Hours. $10 Million. 1 Kidnapped Daughter.Overall: Enjoyable ThrillerCheck out more reviews on http://moviesreview101.com/

Stolen is one of those movies you put on to try to help you fall asleep at nights, or something in the background if you are doing housework, or that you put on during a date if you are trying to get rid of your unwanted partner.Directed by Simon West who is very hit or miss, Stolen has Ridiculous Cage playing typical Cage, but is a little more watchable than usual.While not completely unwatchable, Stolen is highly predictable from the opening 10 minutes which makes it harder to sit through because you damn well know what is going to happen, and how it plays out.Along with that, there is some utterly ridiculous moments that only Hollywood would do in thinking the general public are too stupid to notice that you couldn't actually pull that off in real life!Now yes, I get it, its a movie, but my god what a confused movie. Simon West seems a little confused as to whether this was a serious drama/thriller or comedy with said ridiculous scenes going on and a soundtrack that was stolen from the likes of Get Smart or Rush Hour.Whatever, its nothing new, it has nothing new, but hey... someone out there is letting the same old crap get made and thrust in our direction.Stolen is just okay. As like most Cage movies, its a great unintentional comedy!
