Twitter is alive with people promising to destroy this movie simply because two of the actors, Dean Cain and Kristy Swanson are conservatives. While I am a liberal I will not let that skew my review of this move. I do not believe in the cancelling of others simply for their beliefs, I will we could all fee this way. Is this movie the best? No but it will keep you watching. It is about a young girl abducted and forced into sex slavery. Sadly this is many of the young prostitutes out there so the story needs to be told. The parents are not getting anywhere with help from the police so they enlist Dean Cain's character to help. It gives a heart wrenching portrayal of what happens to many girls and hopefully makes a person give pause when thinking about enlisting the services of a prostitutes. What it and check your political beliefs at the door and you will like the film.

Yeah, this 2021 movie titled "Trafficked: A Parent's Worst Nightmare" (aka "A Parent's Worst Nightmare") is a movie that, oddly enough, is based on sex trafficking, which in itself is a terrible topic.

And indeed, there have been movies out there that deal with the same issue, but doing so in a much more fulfilling way, in terms of it being a movie that brings entertainment - despite revolving around such atrocious things as sex trafficking. But "A Parent's Worst Nightmare" just didn't have the same impact as some movies of a similar nature.

Sure, "A Parent's Worst Nightmare" was watchable, but it wasn't an overly entertaining movie. And the reason for this was partially because of some inferior writing from writers Joel Paul Reisig, George P. Saunders and Scott Voshel. Which is some accomplishment in itself. I mean, three writers not being able to come up with something more worthwhile. But it is also due to some rigid characters and dubious acting performances.

The characters portrayed in "A Parent's Worst Nightmare" felt like wooden caricatures that hardly displayed any real or believable emotions or acted as one would think people would act when a family member is abducted and lost for over a month. It just took away so much believability from the movie as a whole.

All in all, then director Joel Paul Reisig just didn't bring contents to the screen where it mattered and "A Parent's Worst Nightmare" felt like a rather mundane and unnecessary movie, to be honest. This is not a movie that left a lasting impression with me, and I sat through it to the very end. Nor is it a movie that I will be thinking about, if someone mentions movies about sex trafficking. It just simply fell short of being outstanding or entertaining.

This 2021 movie is hardly one that I would recommend you wasting your time, money or effort on. My rating of "A Parent's Worst Nightmare" settles on a three out of ten stars.

This is another teen abduction forced to work as a prostitute film awareness film. It takes place in the Detroit area. Unlike other movies, dad was not a former special ops sniper, so he hires a private firm. The production felt like a Lifetime film. I liked the private investigators, but you can keep the rest.
