The Stolen is at its best when it focuses on its mystery element. Rife with intrigue and unexpected twists throughout, the film makes for an entertaining journey into the frontier. It's a shame that this wasn't given the focus it deserved.

The film moves at a snails pace and while it shows off a lot of beautiful scenery, it takes about 30 minutes for something to happen outside of the initial hubbaloo that sets Charlotte off in the first place.

"The Stolen" is pretty much an all-around disaster. The story defies logic at every turn.

Ultimately you'll leave the theatre feeling that plenty more should have been made of its promising set-up.
