Abducted: The Carlina White Story (2012)

Very Cool!!!

I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

Carlina White abduction and subsequent events were all over mainstream media in 2011-12. It was and is an amazing story on its own. Alas, a docudrama was bound to be put out soon, and sure it did.The major critique I have on this movie is that its writing is outright bad. Clichés, discontinued story lines, simplistic and stereotyping portrayals of people who were accessory to the story all contribute to make this feature lame, simple in a bad way, adding nothing to the main narrative, exploring no additional angles. Nothing. Editing is also limited and hurried, especially on the later third of the movie.I give it therefore a 5/10 score for its limited quality. Yes, the real-life story is amazing and compelling, that is no excuse for bad production, though.

The intensity was present and the story line was so realistic. I can go on and on and on!! This movie is so good! It was actually better than good and I cried more than I thought. I cried so incredibly much much! Omg I truly recommend this movie! Gosh the acting was amazing . Lifetime did an awesome job with the casting and the storyline. Considering that this movie is based on a true story makes it even more better. I originally watched this movie on Netflix and I'm Glad that I had the opportunity to see it. At first I was unsure about the movie, but it's a top movie to see. Lifetime thanks again for the great movie and acting!

The dilemma, heartbreak, frustration and struggle of identity are all themes associated with "Abduction:The Carlina White Story."In 1987 a baby was snatched from a Harlem hospital by a woman had previously suffered three miscarriages. She takes the child home to an unsuspecting family and for 23 years raised the child as her own.The true story begins here once the young lady discovers her true identity and how she is torn between her real parents and the woman who reared her.Excellent acting by all here with Aujaune Ellis stealing the show as the woman who abducted the child.Can forgiveness for doing such a dastardly act ever be achieved? How does the young lady adjust to her new life and name? Can she forgive the woman who abducted her? What about the real parents who went on to leave separate lives? What can they say?A truly excellent film.

I highly enjoyed this movie. It did everything right. The acting was on target and the story was a real tearjerker. Another hit for Lifetime, of course I love love Lifemovies so I am biased. I also pat the channel on the back because they seem to have come to their senses as of late...everybody is not white in America. I'm black, and though I don't partake in very much "black entertainment", I still like to see that somebody out there is perhaps making tiny steps to understand that you can't just focus on stories involving white people.I felt a bit sorry for every person involved the case, even Ann; she was a pathetic creature who had a lousy lot in life, and the actress made you feel more than just hate for her. At the end of the day, she still is rotten and deserves to stay in jail for at least 23 years.
