Blu-Ray Review: ‘Stolen’ Wastes Talented Cast on Melodrama
Chicago – On paper, “Stolen” probably looked like the kind of competent thriller that could get once-rising star Josh Lucas back into the spotlight and prove to producers that “Mad Men” star Jon Hamm could carry a motion picture. Sadly, lackluster direction of what is essentially no more interesting than an extended episode of “Cold Case” squanders the talent of both men, a pair of actors who deserve better showcases.

On the other side of “Stolen,” Jon Hamm is just now trying to turn his small-screen success into leading man status. One...
