For as long as he can remember, Nathan Harper (Taylor Lautner) has had the uneasy feeling that he's living someone else's life. When he stumbles upon an image of himself as a little boy on a missing persons website, all of Nathan's darkest fears come true: he realizes his parents are not his own and his life is a lie, carefully fabricated to hide something more mysterious and dangerous than he could have ever imagined. Just as he begins to piece together his true identity, Nathan is targeted by a team of trained killers, forcing him on the run with the only person he can trust, his neighbor, Karen (Lily Collins). Every second counts as Nathan and Karen race to evade an army of assassins and federal operatives. But as his opponents close in, Nathan realizes that the only way he'll survive – and solve the mystery of his elusive biological father – is to stop running and take matters into his own hands.

When I was about fifteen, Abduction was the movie of the year. Lily Collins looks great like never before, Michael Nyqvist breathes villainously and when the viewer tries a little, Taylor does well too. At least during the fights and tense moments, I forgive him, but unfortunately at the moment when he is supposed to have fun carelessly or look romantically at his idol, I can only helplessly close my eyes, because it doesn't work and probably won't work anymore. But when Singleton lets CIA agents shoot without any consequences and casts ageless Sigourney or perfectly typified Isaacs in supporting roles, I don't feel like mentioning the significant logical lapses and just enjoy this teenage adrenaline rush. 70%
