Trapped

         

The MM - "Kevin Bacon and Courtney Love (caution: link may contain nudity) are the husband and wife duo who team up with Pruitt Taylor Vince to commit the perfect kidnapping at the emotional and physical expense of Stuart Townsend, Charlize Theron (caution: link may contain nudity) and their asthmatic daughter. The perfect plan which is actually unrealistic, impractical, and unbelievable, is just elaborate enough to last the length of an entire movie. The perfect kidnapping calls for the three perpetrators to individually abduct their victims and hold them in separate locations. That way the plot can jump back and forth from location to location and take up the required amount of time. Mildly suspenseful but mostly over dramatic, Trapped eventually ends up holding your intelligence hostage.
