Our take
This Prime Video thriller stars Gal Gadot as a London lawyer whose son is kidnapped during her morning run. She must keep moving and obey a caller's orders, including accessing court security to kill a witness, or her diabetic child dies. Kidnapping stress and coercion make it best for teens, not younger kids.
Uplifting themes
A mother's love drives Maia's desperate rescue effort. Variety finds the theme familiar and underdeveloped Maia shows determination and athletic skill protecting her son, though she is forced into criminal acts
Story (may spoil tone)
Maia Marten, a brilliant London lawyer, has her life shattered by a single call on her morning run: her son has been taken. To get him back, she must keep running, obey every ruthless command, and trust no one-each second a test of how far a mother will go to save her child.
