Amber Alert (2016 TV Movie)
8/10
Mostly flawless
18 December 2022
For a made for TV film like this, I don't mind throwing logic and common sense out the window. My mouth was agape with this ending - it completely blew me away.

Other reviewers point out that this work could stigmatize people with mental illnesses. I really didn't see it that way. The hostage taker did have a borderline personality, yet was bright, had a clear motivation, and never backed down.

This was actually pretty exciting and had consistent momentum- it kept me hooked until the end. There was some humor, tension, drama, and an array of cool gadgets and explosives to look at. There also is a hint of realism in showing how predatory the medical insurance industry can be.
