Stolen Girl

Hate to break it to the other reviewers, but Lebanon in the 90s and early 2000s did not look like the USA in the 1990s and early 2000s. If you're having trouble realizing when the movie actually takes place, look at the phones, the computer monitors, the CD players, the television sets. The movie isn't set in 2025. Also, lip injections are ALWAYS a bad idea.

Besides that, it's entertaining. Much better than The Thunderbolts.

10/10 is for Beckinsale, I'd give the movie a 7.5.

Stolen Girl is an excellent drama, thriller starring Kate Beckinsale as Maureen, a mother who loses her daughter to kidnapping and goes on an 8 year mission to find her and bring her back.

It's a well told and well paced drama with some decent action and espionage to keep the stakes high and the plot rolling.

But ultimately it's a story about a mother who will risk everything to get her daughter back and the film does a fine job of portraying the emotional, political and ethical dilemmas surrounding why these kinds of events really do happen in the real world.

An exciting and moving story, excellently told. Highly recommended! :-)

Not sure why the reviews are average. It's a very good movie, based on true events. It's really pulled on the heart strings; the years not moving on for the grieving parent, but life continues for the stolen and their kidnapping parent.

There could have been more depth to the characters, but all in all I thoroughly enjoyed this movie and it's well worth watching.

The story of Stolen Girl is actually nice and has good suspense, but the execution is extremely disappointing. The movie clearly looks low-budget, with weak scenes and poor production quality.

This movie really hit my nerves. They claim it was filmed in Lebanon, yet nothing in the scenes even resembles Lebanon. The locations do not look like Beirut, nor do they reflect the real image of our country. If they wanted to represent Lebanon, they could have at least chosen proper places that show its true character and beauty, not random spots that look nothing like it.

Because of this, and despite the decent storyline, I can only give it one star.

Honestly, I don't even know what to write about Stolen Girl. The movie just didn't connect with me at all - emotionally, it felt empty. There was nothing special or memorable about it; the story moved without any real impact or engagement. It's one of those films you watch once and instantly forget. Overall, a very flat experience that fails to leave any impression.
