Frantic
We watched this movie New Year's Eve, not that that information is important, just saying. Anyways Frantic is an earlier Harrison Ford film where he plays a Doctor that has traveled for Paris with his wife for some conference he is to lecture in. His wife goes missing, no one believes him that she has been abducted and he doesn't speak a word of french. As you can guess he finds help with a less than honest smuggler and he starts to unravel the mystery of why his wife was taken. Mild spoiler here, Harrison Ford does flash all his junk to the camera while trying to hide behind a tiny teddy bear. Yes it is as disturbing as you might imagine, also do try not to imagine it.
At first i was concerned that the plot of a Dr traveling to overseas with his wife, having her turn up missing and him wandering around trying to find out what is happening sounded a little too familiar, like the trailer for Unknown with Liam Neeson coming out Feb 18. Don't worry guys I looked into and I think for once a new movie coming out is Not a remake of an earlier film.
Over all the film wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either. If it is on tv and your bored go for it, but if not your not really missing much.
