Abduction: So Ehhh

Abduction, starring Taylor Launter, is a movie about a teenager named Nathan who lives a rather normal life, until he finds his picture on a missing children website. He then is told by his parents they the indeed aren't their real parents. Suddenly, two attackers invade their home and kill his parents. Not knowing his real parents, he is advised by his counselor, who is only one of four people who know his real identity, to find his real father. Accompanied by his neighbor and possible love interest, Karen, they have to find the identity of his real father, all while avoiding the CIA and his parents killers, who are trying to find his father and him in order to obtain CIA secrets.

The main theme of this movie is man vs. himself. Nathan has to find out who he really is. He did not know his real mother and father, and his mother and father were a huge mystery to him as well. He needs to find his true identity, while avoiding evil at all costs.

This movie got a 4% on Rotten Tomatoes and 42% of the views liked it, so one could say it is "bad". Yes, this movie has its downfalls, low points, and really corny and cheesy moments, but it is not as bad as you would think. The concept is there, but it was poorly executed. I mean seriously, Taylor Launter? Zac Efron would have been a hell of a lot better. This movie keeps your interest, but it has some cringeworthy moments. I give this a 5 out of 10.
