Movie Reviews of Kidnapped
Movie Review: Not as good as the old Disney version.
Summary: 3 Stars
While this story is not a bad version of the book, you should watch the Disney movie starring among others, James MacArthur as David Balfour and a young Peter Finch ( You might remember him as the man who says " I'm mad as hell and i'm not going to take it anymore. " in the movie Network.) as Alan Breck. The movie was made long ago and being a Disney movie, it has all the hallmarks of those old great Disney films, which not only means it is great for kids to watch but also for adults. If you really want to see the only great adaptation of this story, you must see the old Disney version, unfortunatly, it has never been put on dvd,so you'll have to find the vhs version.Movie Review: Very Drawn Out
Summary: 2 Stars
This movie was an ongoing struggle between attention and yawns. I finally realized I didn't like the movie after it had several times moved to a new scene and I wanted it to end. Perhaps just another case of ruining a movie by reading the book first.Movie Review: What a pile of Doggy Doo!
Summary: 1 Stars
Ok, I really don't understand what people like about this movie. After reading the book and enjoying it very much I thought it would be nice to see the characters acted out. I was wrong. I didn't expect it to follow the book exactly (what does?) but this just dumps all the things that made the book good and focuses on points that really had nothing to do with the heart of the story. It should have been about a friendship forged from extreme perseverance and adventure. It just ends up being a poorly organized sequence of events with a wrap up thats less than interesting. I actually ended up not likeing the main character of the movie. Thank goodness Treasure Island didn't end up like this!
