“Trafficked” (**1/2 out of four) was an overall gripping action melodrama about a couple (Mark Boyd and Kristy Swanson) whose daughter (Sophia Bolen) is abducted and sold into the world of sex-trafficking; in desperation they turn to a thuggish private investigator (Dean Cain) with a shady past who swears to get her back by any means necessary. Uneven movie is half-exploitation screw-tightening but also half engrossing as it shows you the harrowing world of sex trafficking and the lengths some parents and cops will go to get someone back. Similar to the 2017 film of the exact same name but both are worthy of some merits.
