KIDNAP Trailers, Clips, Featurettes, Images and Posters

"Kidnap" is a thriller directed by Luis Prieto ("Pusher" remake) from a script written by Knate Lee ("Cardboard Boxer"). The film stars Halle Berry as a single mother whose six-year-old son (Sage Correa) is kidnapped and stops at nothing to get him back.

The cast also includes Chris McGinn, Lew Temple, Jason George and Kurtis Bedford.

Production on "Kidnap" was completed in 2014 and the film was set for release in 2015, but Relativity Media went bankrupt and the rights were sold to Aviron Pictures. The film eventually opened in theaters on August 4, 2017.

"Kidnap" received mixed to negative reviews from critics who praised Berry's gripping performance, but weren't too thrilled about the film's writing and exploitation-style narrative. However, the film defied expectations and opened with $10.2 million from just 2,378 theaters, finishing 5th at the box-office.

In this context, "The Dark Tower", the latest Stephen King adaptation, failed to impress. Same scenario was applied to Kathryn Bigelow's "Detroit". Meanwhile, the thriller "Kidnap" starring Halle Berry scored a decent debut.
