Based on real-life events, Stolen Girl follows the journey of Maureen Danning (Beckinsale), whose life is shattered when her ex-husband, Karim, abducts their young daughter, Amina, and flees to the Middle East. Determined to get her child back, Maureen partners with Robeson (Eastwood), an ex-marine and child abduction specialist who promises to find Amina. Together, they embark on a dangerous mission in Beirut that leads them into the murky underworld of international espionage. With time running out and Maureen facing the most difficult decision of her life, they must navigate through a maze of betrayal, corruption, and hidden agendas to rescue the stolen girl and bring her home.
Recap/Wine Thoughts
Kate Beckinsale plays Mara, a mom looking for her daughter, in this true story.
The movie cuts to eight years earlier, and Kate Beckinsale is living with her aging father and young daughter, Nina, in a double-wide trailer. Kate Beckinsale has shared custody with the father, Karim, who seems distracted at the kid exchange. (What do you call that? A Dropoff?)
While picking up a prescription at Walmart, Nina, who is dressed like a dinosaur, disappears. Kate Beckinsale is convinced Karim took her daughter and tells the police to check the airports because he is kidnapping her. There are no laws against a parent traveling internationally with their child.
Kate Beckinsale tries to book a flight to Syria, but it is too expensive. She tries to call her representative and hold rallies at the Capitol. She really is doing the MOST, even going on a hunger strike.
Four years go by, and no one cares. Enter Scott Eastwood. (Who is so sad ever since Glen Powell stole his thunder), He recruits Kate Beckinsale to help women in a similar predicament to hers. They go to Mexico to find a kid, but it kind of seems like THEY are kidnappers, and Kate Beckinsale is like, WTF did I sign up for?
Kate Beckinsale and Scott Eastwood save the kid and fall in love? He doesn’t have kids, but is good at rescuing them. Maybe he could help Kate Beckinsale get her daughter? Before we get there, we see the task force assisting OTHER kids first.
Next, we get subtitles… in a Lifetime Movie?!?! Lifetime should know, I’m illiterate.
Some poorly plotted out action sequences go down, and Kate Beckinsale gets a gun and shoots a lightbulb. The CIA abandons them there because of a mission gone wrong. Kate Beckinsale bleeps out some explicit language and ends up in Switzerland, drinking beers and trying NOT to sleep with Scott Eastwood. She fails miserably.
Kate Beckinsale locates her husband and tries to barter sex with Scott Eastwood in exchange to SAVE HER DAUGHTER. He wants to plan and rehearse, but she tells him it is now or never.
After an extraction goes wrong, Kate Beckinsale puts her team in danger by messing with a crime mob. The head of the CIA, maybe, doesn’t want Kate Beckinsale to find her daughter. That is too bad, because she has already tracked down her daughter, who is now a teenager.
We are back at the beginning of the movie, where Kate Beckinsale is lurking through a market following her daughter and kidnapping her back. The daughter thinks her mother is dead and cries hysterically. Conveniently, the daughter is at the top of her class for English.
Kate Beckinsale and her daughter talk about her hobbies and being on the swim team. Kate Beckinsale takes credit for teaching her daughter how to swim, and I’m like, Kate Beckinsale, calm down.
Karim has been working with the Muslim Brotherhood to keep Kate Beckinsale away from her daughter, and he hired Scott Eastwood to stop her from finding out the truth.
Kate Beckinsale isn’t going down like that and swings her daughter on a tire swing to make up for lost time. The escape on a bus and make it out of town to a remote location for extraction.
Then Karim shows up, and they cry together. Kate Beckinsale tells Karim to come clean to their daughter about what he did to keep them apart. Karim agrees, but the daughter still wants to be with her dad.
STRAY Thought
Is Kate Beckinsale so mad that she is in a Lifetime movie that is basically Not Without My Daughter? Without Sally Field.
