I couldn’t resist the play on words, but the headline to this post is far-fetched. It’s not like Taken was the first movie to revolve around a father – a skilled badass – who has to save his daughter from a bunch of assholes (remember Commando?).
Directed by The Expendables 2’s Simon West, Stolen stars Nicolas Cage as a former thief who frantically searches for his missing daughter. Turns out, she has been kidnapped and locked in the trunk of a taxi from some of his former crime partners. Now he has 12 hours to come up with $10 million dollars or his little girl is dead.
Stolen releases on September 14, 2012. Check out the trailer.
