The Prince

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Jason Patrick stars as a mechanic whose daughter gets involved with the wrong people. He has to hunt them down to find her before something bad happens.

Sound familiar? It's very similar to Taken, but there is a twist. I won't spoil it in case you want to see it, but you'll figure it out pretty quickly into the movie.

Bruce Willis is the main baddie. John Cusack is also here and doesn't do either of the things I expected his to...

It's not a bad movie. Nothing original, but nothing amazing either.

I don't get Jason Patrick. Not a huge name, but every film he does, he's the star above much bigger names. Weird.

Three reasons.

1) Jackie Gleason's grandkid.

2) The Lost Boys. Must suck to know your career hit its high note around 19-20.

3) A number of critics have convinced themselves he's one of the most underrated male leads for a couple decades, mainly due to the flick After Dark, My Sweet. His name is there for reviewers.
