Title: Nothing like the book...
Review: I have to start by saying the Kidnapped is one of my favorite books. I've read it many, many times so I know that no movie version can do it full justice. Actually, the best version I'd ever seen was the Disney version with Peter Finch, so I was very interested to see if this one would be more faithful to the book. I was extremely disappointed: while David's character is ok (albeit a bit boring), Alan is completely and utterly changed beyond all recognition. Not only does he look and act like someone out of a Dumas novel, but near the end he is actually portrayed as a *coward*! If there is anything in the world that Alan Breck Stewart is NOT, that would be a coward! Arg, I was yelling at the TV, it was that bad. So if you're a fan of the book, do yourself and everyone around you a favor and give this one a miss.
