Team of serial kidnappers panic when the victim and the victim's parents turn their own screws. Elaborate chase-ending comes out of nowhere, with plot-points and character motivations increasingly unclear, but an efficient, well-produced suspenser nevertheless, with enough twists to hold interest. Curious, colorful cast is fine and the direction is tight despite some queasy, wayward bits that intermingle sex and violence (too heavy for popcorn material such as this). Hardly did any business in theaters, but it makes for a fun rental. Admirers of all the stars (Kevin Bacon, Charlize Theron, Dakota Fanning and especially Courtney Love) should enjoy it. **1/2 from ****
