LastingAware The greatest movie ever!

Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews

Teddie Blake The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Francene Odetta It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

Thom Hall I am very happy to say that this version of Kidnapped is available on DVD. I got mine in the mail this weekend. I wrote a review on this in 2005. I would be hard pressed to say if I liked Braveheart or this version of Kidnapped better. It took a long time, but it was worth it. It is just a good as I remember it, and I am able to share it with my son. There is a little bit of poor picture quality in some of the nighttime scenes. It should be in the movie library of any good Scot. It is in Region 2 format, but I found website that tells you how to unlock the Region code of your DVD player. Here it is. Order the DVD, setup your player,and enjoy. I just wish I could get the soundtrack.http://www.videohelp.com/dvdhacks

savbard This is a great movie, with only one problem: you cannot buy a copy and it was only shown on TV in the USA once that I know of, in the early 1980's. I hope someone will get the idea to show it again, and make it available for purchase on DVD or VHS. I have never seen a better version of this movie. It really captures the spirit of Scotland at the time. I would put it up against Braveheart or any of the Lord Of The Rings movies. The music alone stirs the blood of anyone with Celtic blood, or a Celtic spirit. The fight scenes are most excellent. I hope someone who has the power to get this movie out for everyone to see it again will do so. If someone knows if there is a DVD or VHS copy out please post a message on here.

Juergen N. The intriguing story of a young man in search of his home through Scotland during English occupation. Young David Balfour travels through the Highlands to get back what's his, all the time hiding from the English and meeting all kinds of people. The series includes a remarkable piping contest - quite funny - which leads me to the musical score: The title melody is hauntingly beautiful. It reminds you of great Celtic folklore, songs like Amazing Grace or Danny Boy. If you get the chance: watch it, it's truly worthwhile.If you like it, I'll recommend "Matt and Jenny" from about the same time. A Canadian TV production about two children in search for their parents through Canada.

JB-9 I saw this version of Kidnapped in 1979.I think it was the best one that was made. The theme music was really nice.It was called David's theme. It was very haunting and lonely. I would love to see a repeat of the show.I feel that Robert Louis Stevenson would be happy with this production.
