AMBER ALERT

10-year-old Charlotte (Ducky Cash) is abducted while playing in the park with her family. Jaq (Hayden Panettiere) is ride sharing to a local event by her driver Shane (Tyler James Williams). They soon come across a vehicle that fits the description from the amber alert that abducted Charlotte and decide to follow it in hopes of rescuing her. The film attempts to present itself as a high speed cat-and-mouse game but its not. Cat-and-mouse? Yes, at times but definitely not a high speed pursuit film other than a few loud honks and cuts to jolt the audience, which failed on me. The film as a whole doesn't work but I do appreciate this topic being given the attention it deserves as it's an important one (not the mention the house of horrors we're shown in the third act for where the abductor calls home). A forgettable film but still a subject that should be discussed more. 5.5/10
