Abduction Movie Reviews

Abduction is a 2011 American action thriller film directed by John Singleton and stars Taylor Lautner, Lily Collins, Sigourney Weaver, Maria Bello, Jason Isaacs, Michael Nyqvist, and Alfred Molina.

The film was released by Lionsgate Films on September 23, 2011.Despite negative reception, the film was nominated for a Golden Reel Award for Dialogue and ADR in a Feature Film.

Nathan Harper(Taylor Lautner) is an 18-year-old high school senior living in the suburbs of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania with his parents Kevin(Jason Isaacs) and Mara(Maria Bello). He has been troubled by recurring nightmares and has been seeing psychiatrist Dr. Geraldine "Geri" Bennett(Sigourney Weaver) to diagnose them.

Nathan is teamed with Karen Murphy(Lily Collins) for a school research project on missing children. Nathan discovers he looks very much like an age-progression photo of a missing child, Steven Price. He investigates further and finds other clues that suggest his parents are not his real mom and dad. When he approaches Mara about this, she reveals that she is not his real mother. She goes off crying to get his father to help her explain it all to him.

On a budget of$35 million, principal photography began on July 12, 2010 in the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania area.Lionsgate returned to the region due to tax benefits from Pennsylvania's tax credit program, after filming My Bloody Valentine 3D, Warrior, and The Next Three Days there in 2008 and 2009. An open casting call for extras held at Carnegie Mellon University drew over 900 people in June, many of whom were teenage fans of the Twilight film series.

Many of the film's scenes were shot in suburban Mount Lebanon, and some others in Forward Township.Scenes were shot at Hampton High School in Hampton Township, a suburb north of Pittsburgh. The school's name and mascot, the Talbot, appeared in the film, as did real students, cheerleaders, and the marching band. Production continued in Pittsburgh, Mount Lebanon, Greensburg and Hampton Township, and lasted into September 2010.

ITS a thriller movie.it is completely centered around the hero of the movie NATHAN HARPER(Taylor Lautner).Nathan Harper a 18 year old boy studying in high school located in  Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania used to live with his parents Kevin(Jason Isaacs) and Mara(Maria Bello). He used to get unusual dreams and was treated by psychiatrist Dr. Geraldine "Geri" Bennett(Sigourney Weaver).

Suddenly one day he come to know that his present parents was only his care takers they were not his real.He was shocked.Meanwhile two men claiming to be from Juvenile Justice arrived at his home and they killed his parents they also tired to kill him and his female friend Karen.They managed to run out of the place safely.They were constantly chased by a number of people but in the end everything goes right and he along with his girfriend Kren was saved.

At last he gets the chance to speak with his father who saved him by shooting his enemy with a bullet.

The film is left with the confusion for our hero that who was his parents.but he seems satisfied with the fact that his father is there to take care of him.

At last I just wanted to say that its a thriller action movie.

Thanking You.
