“Seized” (** out of four) was a wan action thriller about a former special ops agent (Scott Adkins) whose son is kidnapped by a ruthless underworld thug (Mario Van Peebles a long way from “New Jack City”) who said he will execute him unless he eradicates three crime syndicates. Pretty glum and one-note and not even the action and martial arts scenes are particularly crisp or fresh. Both Adkins and Van Peebles try to enliven the proceedings but at this point they may want to “seize” themselves some better scripts.
