“Abducted By My Teacher: The Elizabeth Thomas Story” (** out of four) was an ersatz story about the title girl (Summer H. Howell) who was groomed and then kidnapped by her high-school teacher (Michael Fishman) who loved her as his own. Film is based on true events but has been sanitized and synthesized into a by-the-numbers mystery potboiler which rings false. Decent acting tries to give this some conviction but film doesn’t stand out from dozens of other stories about kidnapping and runaways.
