I've read three reviews of this movie: two knock the plot, and one knocks the acting. Why? I've seen worse movies (with bigger budgets) that the critics loved. At least the "kid" isn't depicted as being more brilliant than the cops or drug dealer. Yeah, there are some plot gaffes ... like, all the kid has to do is show that his bag check ticket doesn't match the one on the bag to prove it isn't his. But, hey! This is all make believe, anyway. So why not believe this kid is so scared he doesn't know what to do? It really is an okay movie. Fine for an afternoon diversion. If you like this genre, I doubt you'll be disappointed.
