Linkshoch Wonderful Movie
Glimmerubro It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.
Siflutter It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
Caryl It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
shani_dayo I saw this poor excuse for a Disney Movie a couple of Years ago, but the awfulness still sticks. Dadnapped is in all honesty one of Disney's worst films to date. The writing was utterly ridiculous, there is no way any of this madness could actually happen in real life! Do not, I repeat do NOT watch this film ever! Along with the poor writing, the acting was laughable, they used a cast made up of Disney stars that were already well known, and most haven't had a job since.So this movie is a about a teenaged girl, who's parents are separated. Yeah, like this has never been done before! The young girl (played by Emily Osment) lives with Her Mother, but is going on a holiday trip with Her Father right after School ends for the break. She is resentful, doesn't want to go, thinks Her Dad is a geek, and the story really starts to kick off! So Her Dad is a comic book writer, and has to attend a convention before they can continue with their Father and Daughter bonding time. But, this strange group of kids kidnap Her Dad and take Him for one crazy ride! In the end as You would expect the Girl saves Her Dad, the kids get of scott free, and these to goons who were in on the plan to destroy This girls Father end up in jail! That's pretty much the sum of the movie, not much to it.The movie is to predictable and paper thin for words! A 5 year old could write and produce a better film than this piece of mess! This isn't even deserving of a single star but I am being kind! Don't waste time, just don't bother!
Gordon-11 This film is about a teenage girl whose father is the creator of the popular Trip Zoome man."Dadknapped" is a squeaky clean movie for children and teenagers. The script is rather lame at first, especially the annoyingly juvenile and irresponsible father who keeps immersing himself in a fantasy world. No wonder his daughter is so fed up with him! Towards the second half of the movie, when the elements for adults come in, it gets substantially better. Though the nonsense persists, the emotional subplot really strikes a chord with the viewers, because the bond between Mr Morris and Melissa is so real.Overall, the plot and the humour is silly and lame, but because of this "Dadknapped" is fun to watch.
rabid_monkey202 Wow. Okay, I'm a huge Disney Channel fan, have been for more than 15 years, but this movie was just . . . wow. What exactly were they trying to accomplish here? Read It and Weep was basically a flop, so what do they do? They make another movie about a schizophrenic girl who talks to an imaginary literary character. The only difference is that this time, the girl's dad created the character. As if the movie itself wasn't boring enough (and totally lacking any basis for the relationships) it was actually painful to watch Melissa talk to an imaginary person over and over, being very aware the whole time that she's NUTS. And what's up with her dad saying she IS Trip Zoome? He told her before she was boring and NOT in his books. Now she's the main character? Yeah, that's a cop out. Don't waste your time. The only reason I didn't give this a 1 is because there is enough money in the world to make me watch it again, but not to like it.
kalkan4 After seeing several months of promotions for this movie on The Disney Channel with the kids, I must say I found this to be one of the worst Disney movies ever. I would describe it as a bizarre combination of Misery and the campy Batman series of the late 1960's.I have to admit to actually enjoying some of the movies produced for this TV Channel, but this one I was really disappointed in, considering Disney's build-up to the premier. I was hoping to see a better performance from Emily Osment, as I think she has great potential.There's lot's of colorful flying "splooge" that Disney must assume kids (still) like these days, even though it's been done ad nauseam, and the ending is completely ludicrous.But, like others have said, you can't expect too much from Disney.
