The acting isn't fabulous, but it's not terrible either. The story line is good, but maybe not put together as well as it could be. The second scene is pretty nebulous. Then, seriously, what mother takes a newborn on vacation into the middle east. Some of the connections are really big jumps. But the action is good and watching a vulnerable, but strong female character kick ass is always fun. There are secondary female characters who kick ass in their own way. In the end it all comes together for a satisfying thrill ride and what's not to love about that.

I like it when the villains mess with a wrong person, in this case, the person is a very tough mom. Surprisingly she fights back- real hard!.. and that is not the only surprise the movie gives me. The action is great, I was taken into the ride of a mother trying her best in finding her daughter, leaving me with questions like: should she do this or that? It is like "Taken" in different package, with sudden violence to the bad guys, but unfortunately with lower quality, I'd say.

The story is interesting, with political intrigue and all. I am annoyed by the way the scenes are taken by the camera (shooting style of the camera?), for me it's too dramatic. The movie has a quite interesting twist at the end.

Plus point: the setting is in Marrakech, Morocco. I find the place very interesting.
