On September 23rd, 2011, Taylor Lautner will star in the upcoming movie “Abduction.” Real life girlfriend, Lily Collins (yup, Phil Collins’ daughter) also co stars along side Alfred Molina and Sigourney Weaver. Why Alfred and Sigourney are in this movie? I have no idea. I guess Law and Order: LA isn’t paying the bills for Molina and Sigourney is taking anything and everything she can get. I actually really like and respect both of these artists so perhaps this movie has more promise than one would think. Then again, Maria Bello is also in this movie and we all know she has starred in some real gems (Coyote Ungly…Duets…need I say more). The movie doesn’t actually look that terrible but then again a) I’m a nice person and b)I will watch anything. In fact, I kind of actually liked “Hot Tub Time Machine” (yes, I just said that…please don’t judge me.)
The acting is what bothers me the most about this movie. Particularly Lautner's acting or lack thereof. While watching the trailer yesterday I thought that the movie was intriguing enough but Lautner’s acting was so atrocious I might have to go see the movie and bring ear plugs. Aesthetically he and Lily Collins make a cute pair, but if I have to sit through two hours of melodramatic and over the top horrible acting I may just have to leave....movies are too expensive now...why would I waste hard earned money on a movie that should go straight to DVD. I think Phil Collins should make a cameo to spice up this action flick even more. Didn’t he ride in a helicopter in “Easy Lover.” The man clearly has action experience…Oh, Phil....I hope he makes a come back.
Anyway if anyone wants to see the trailer… I have provided a link below. What are your thoughts?
