Review: 4.5/5
I will give this show a 4/5. Very entertaining, action-packed and draws you into the show completely. This show was released in US back in 2008 but will only screen in singapore in the month of april 2009. I am not sure if it is up for grabs in the CDs outlets but try to lay your hands on it if you have the chance. You will not be disappointed. Your heart will goes to the father who tries every single bit of his means to find his abducted daughter and cheers for him as he takes down the criminal who ever lay their single breath or finger on her. Die Die must watch!

Np man.
do give us ur field report after u watched it.
Watched the movie yesterday, indeed it's good. I would say a rating of 4-4.5 upon 5 is fair.
I always believe human traffic happens more common that most of us would see, esp in Singapore. I've watched movies like Hostel 1&2, The Hill Has Eyes 1&2, Wolf Creek etc and I believe all these very much. Sometimes my wife even say I'm abit pananoid but when it comes to my children safety, I will not take any risk. H/w, having said so it doesn't means I restrict my kids from going out or visiting places w/o me along (eg with the school). I just want them to know the danger out there and teach them how to protect themselves.. I myself is not as "super" as Kim's daddy in the movie so what I did is "prevention" instead of "cure".
For all these who watch the clip of maid abusing the toddler, I'm sure u won't imagine such things will happen in RL but fact it, there are worse things out there and it's happening every seconds while we live (we are fortunate to live in this safe island)...
Anyway, if the movie has more "abuse" (whether physical or sexual or even forcing the girls to take drugs so as to control them to sell their bodies) and more story on how the bad guys trace the girls and kidnap them, I will give it a 4.5-5 upon 5. Not tha I like to see "SM" stuffs (no, I'm not keen on SM or same sex stuffs, lol) but I think since they are already making a movie on such story, might as well give it a full go and show the world what really happens (like Hostel 1&2).
Still a good movie to watch esp with your teenage kids who think the world is "safe". No it isn't, welcome to the real world...

ziltus.. u r not speaking from ur heart.. deep down in ur heart n mind.. u like SM alot.. i know.>!!!

Seriously, I dun enjoy SM. I simply can't get any "shiokness" out of dripping candle wax on private parts or injecting some unknown liquid into the rears. Worst are those who play with urine and

.
I can watch those, just that I dun find them "enjoyable".


Hmm... I saw this title in the dvd store the other day but didn't grab it. Will do so soon! :D
