Movie Reviews of Kidnapped

Movie Review: Ah, the Highlanders!
Summary: 5 Stars

This movie is incredible! Being of Scottish descent, my boys and I were excited to watch this movie; simply on that fact. However, what we found was adventure and excitement beyond our own imaginings... we found the Highlands and the Highlanders!

Everything about this movie shouts, FIGHT FOR FREEDOM! We first encountered this movie almost 10 years ago, and are still watching it annually (at least). I have sons and they are warriors at heart (aren't most boys?) Kidnapped has captured that warrior spirit and packaged it in an epic film. Huzzah!

The adventure, the scenery, the filming, and particularly the choice actors and actresses in this film make it a classic and a must own for any family. I think RLS, himself, would be proud of this one!

Movie Review: an excellent, engrossing film
Summary: 5 Stars

I thought this was an excellent filmic version of one of my favourite childhood books--Kidnapped--and its sequel, Catriona(as the film covers both books). Kidnapped And Catriona were always much more than fantastic adventure stories, and the film brings out all those other aspects too--the tormented history of Scotland, the different currents in Scottish society, the moral ambiguity of a lot of the characters, the way in which ancient clan traditions(which are not universally good, of course) must bow before the new order of things(more civilised but less heroic, in some ways). But all these things are not allowed to get in the way of the action. Great acting, settings and atmosphere make this a quite enthralling experience.

Movie Review: Well worth veiwing
Summary: 5 Stars

It is so nice to have a newer version of an old classic that does not have to use nudity, or dirty language to get a point acrossed. The location was breathtaking making it all the more enjoyable to veiw. Acting was very well done. I first saw the movie on television and enjoyed it very much, I was ticked pink to see that I could get a DVD for myself to be able to watch whenever I want. Watch it, you may just enjoy it like I did, over and over and over again.

Movie Review: Totally good influence!
Summary: 5 Stars

What an amazing movie! My favorite character was Mary played by Antoine Byrne! She is the best actress I've ever seen! Mary was very brave, and fell in love with David [Brian McCardie] and Alan Breck Stewart [Armand Assante] was amazing. Catherine Byrne who played Flora was magnificent and I think is younger than Antoine. I don't know, anyway, I'd like to thank the whole cast for making this movie and espicially the Byrne family. Thanks!

Movie Review: Excellently casted & filmed!
Summary: 5 Stars

Scottish Highlands, pirates & Red-coats...make up the gist of this movie and although true, not exactly like the Stevenson novel, it is based on this tale and captures the essence of the books tale. At any rate, this 3 hour epic is filmed with great footage and Assante's accent if remarkably convincing. Colorful and striking scenery.
