This is an okay movie, but at the same time, it's kind of a stupid movie. I would not have made the same decisions the mother makes regarding her daughter. I don't think she always took her childs safety into consideration. Many major motels and hotels have babysitting services. Especially in foreign countries. And, especially since the mother felt that the city was one of the most dangerous cities in the world. Plus her daughter is handicapped. She can't communicate with anyone who does not know sign language or reads lips.The little girl gets into predicaments that children do not normally get into and did "stunts" that most children do not do or can do. It's kind of far fetched. If you can get past all of that, you might be able to bear with the movie. You might want to see what the child gets into next!! *lol*

I don't know what people wanted to do here, I don't now either if this was a comedy, thriller or what...A 10 years old girl escaping from a "pro-murderer", giving him some pain, driving cars, kicking faces, jumping from the roof of a 10 floor hotel, jumping from elevators... Are we stupid or Amsterdam's police department are more stupid than us? Home Alone was so much better than this and Arnold Schwarzeneger would like to fight just like this 10 years old lady. This is the worse movie ever...Something good about this movie??? I don't think so...1 out of 10 (overrated)

I guess no one is Dutch in Amsterdam. Was there a shortage of actors that can at least sound like they are a local? I've been to Amsterdam a few times and yeah the majority speak English very fluently but you know they are Dutch. Anyone have an accent? No!My husband and I were drawn into this film because we like both Hurt and Tilly and because the premise of the film sounded palpable. I'll bet it was fun to shoot because per capita, each actor only had about 20 lines to memorize. They must have had oodles of free time.The icing on the cake came at the end. "I hope rehab works for him." Ick. Gimmee a break.

A ten year old mute witnesses a murder in a foreign country. Sillyness ensues. The whole film was quite watcheable, but came across as pure eye candy. Child orientated humour (I can only presume this was intended) with a couple of violent scenes and a rather facile car chase as a finale. The acting was rather so so IMO, with the exception of Denis Leary as the childs initial saviour. Cheesey ending, dubious plot development, including a rather big jump in the plot development, ok acting and a dodgy car chase. Watcheable but not worth going out of your way for. Watch it if you would like to fill some time.
