“Abduction” (**1/2 out of four) was a decent action flick about a man (Scott Adkins) who awakens in Vietnam with no memories of who he is or how he got there and is then pursued to the death by various underworld killers as he tries to stay alive and simultaneously piece together things from his past. Kinetic action yarn is packed with cool martial arts and hand-to-hand combat but story becomes overly routine and mechanical after a while. Adkins’ typically one-note acting range is actually put to good use here. No relation byetheway to the 2011 Taylor Lautner movie of the same name.
