sucks, has no reason to be rated R, and none of the characters make any sense at all.

Good premise? Bad acting.

Really not as bad as I thought it would be based on the terrible poster and the painfully obvious ripoff of Taken. Most of the acting is pretty bad but there are some funny moments and the ending is pretty solid. This is a fairly grounded Nic Cage role so it doesn’t have the weirdo charm that some of his really movies but this wasn’t a waste of 90 minutes
