Code 207
Returning to the United States after his military service, Mack Crawford (Struckmann) is a man in turmoil, and struggles that will be exacerbated further. This is because Charlotte (Headrick), who is Mack’s wife, gets kidnapped by women traffickers. He discovered that the authorities are going to assist him since Charlotte is not the only female who has turned up missing. So, with a DVD copy of ‘Taken’ as his sole source of inspiration, he decides to investigate the matter himself. Alright. I fabricated that final word.
He tracks out the women’s holding facility which is also where the gang’s center of operations are and goes Rambo and guns blazing to save the women which brings us into the climax of the movie; the last hour. Many criticisms can be levelled against this movie (and we will discuss them later) but it must be said that it’s an action-packed drama. The very first person he saves from the clutches of the gang is Tiffany (Hughes) who does more energy than the mission as Mack wanders about the place. It’s as if Brittany Murphy hasn’t passed away.
The term used for kidnapping among police is 207. So now you know. In this case, Struckman is the writer, director, and lead actor. He did fine, but nothing impressive. Writers have good scripts, especially him since he had a mishmash of styles that, for all intents and purposes, didn’t really fit the story but which I found quite entertaining. For example, Mack is able to reason with Tiffany that when you shoot someone, all you have to do is put them to sleep for a few hours. It’s not only a wild thought; but one that contradicts the bleakness of the film’s core plot which is kind of bizarre.
So much so that a B-movie about sex slavery should at least have a shot of exposed breasts only one such shot in fact? What the hell. For the record, I never understood how the calls and I quote “as a plain woman” but evidently the demand is there. There was also the presence of a couple of minor TNA wrestlerifness wrestlers in supporting roles quite a hundred of them, and the performance was notably inconsistent. Most of the time they just wobbled around like two drunks and grabbed each other.
But still, things are moving quickly enough to be entertaining the bad guys are nicely played bad, Crawford is well placed as a hero, and Hughes gets more attention in every shot she appears in, aided by Struckmann’s blank expessions.
If only the script had focused on those two,-personally I would have made them a daughter and father searching for Mom, it could have become a cult classic but then again I suppose this is the sort of thing one cannot hope or predict. For the record, what you have is undoubtedly a cheap salary and measure actioner, more in heart than practice but which just about makes it only because of the its vitality.
