As the “Mandoverse” expands to include Ahsoka and the Skeleton Crew, the grand narrative seems to be clearer. Luis Mandoki directed the movie with writing credit going to Greg Iles from the book “24 Hours.” James Horner did the soundtrack.One of the most prominent theories about the end of The Mandalorian Era and the overall saga has recently been debunked. I remember reading an email from an angry reader over the critic’s trashing of “The Phantom of The Opera.” She wrote that the next time the critic reviewed a movie, the editor of the newspaper should take away his thesaurus. Are they really reviewing the movie or are they trying to impress the reader. I’m beginning to have a really dim view of movie critics. I was surprised to see that “Trapped” only got one star when it was reviewed. The suspense is heightened because you aren’t sure but that the cousin is going to foul up somehow and kill the child because he misunderstands his instructions ![]() Something that added to the terror of whether the child would be rescued eventually or not is the fact that Kevin Bacon and Courtney Love had left their dim-witted cousin Pruitt Taylor Vince to watch the little girl. In this movie, Kevin Bacon not only wants revenge for his mother’s death but he wants a ransom for the safe return of the kidnapped child. That is, until they manage to manipulate the situation to their own advantage. But when the guy is a wholesome, good-looking guy like Pierce Brosnan, Gary Sinise or Kevin Bacon it’s hard to believe that these are the bad guys. Why is it more frightening to have the villain be a good -looking guy than someone like Peter Lorre? The minute you saw Peter Lorre in a movie you knew he was the bad guy, capable of doing anything. Kevin Bacon believes that Stuart Townsend is the doctor responsible for his mother’s death and now it’s payback time. In “Trapped“, Kevin Bacon and his wife Courtney Love along with a cousin Pruitt Taylor Vince kidnap the little daughter (Dakota Fanning) of Charlize Theron and Stuart Townsend. It’s truly frightening to see the hold a person can have over someone when they have the power to kill or let the child go. In “Trapped“, Kevin Bacon is the kidnapper of the only child of Charlize Theron and Stuart Townsend. ![]() Gary Sinise was the kidnapper of Mel Gibson and Rene Russo’s young son. ![]() Pierce Brosnan was the kidnapper of Gerard Butler and Maria Bello’s little girl. I have seen two other movies that I would put in the same class as “Trapped” and that would be “Shattered” starring Gerard Butler, Maria Bello and Pierce Brosnan and “Ransom” starring Mel Gibson, Gary Sinise and Rene Russo.Īll three movies involve a wealthy husband and wife and their only child is kidnapped. Sometimes a “scary” movie is so over the top that there is nothing to be afraid of because everything is so obvious. To be a real thriller, I think a movie has to be one that keeps you on the edge of your seat and your heart pounding from the suspense.
