In Abduction we see Twilight’s Taylor Lautner take on a new and more starring role with a bit more action than an over sensitive werewolf. Trying out a bit of “proper acting” Lautner really comes into his own as Nathan, the lead in this stylish and action packed thriller.
Starting out as your typical high school party, trouble with girls and parents teen movie, the plot quickly takes a turn one evening after said girl, his long term crush Karen, comes over to work on a school project. It’s here that things really get interesting! The pair discover a page online that ages the photos of missing or abducted children and as they browse through the pictures they discover a young boy who looks scarily like our hero. When they age the photograph they are even more shocked to find that it is nearly an exact match.
Calling the number on the site to find out more, Nathan finds that he is asked probing questions and very quickly his cosy little lifestyle is turned upside down. Heading out on the run with Karen and not knowing who he can trust anymore, Nathan decides he can trust nobody. With potential enemies everywhere he turns, he must find out what the secret of his childhood actually is – and who is on his side.
Fast paced and exciting with more twists than you could shake one of Lautner’s dumbbells at, this is one film that will keep you guessing until the end. Not just a film for Twilight fans to indulge in another fix, but rather a thrilling race for survival and the truth of a young man’s history. Brilliantly cast, the movie maintains its pace and particularly seems to be a very effective gateway for Taylor Lautner to head into more serious roles in his life after Twilight.
Abduction will be released on the 13th February 2012 and is available to pre-order here.
