By Hal Boedeker FULL REVIEW

Tonight's pilot has a film quality to it and the narrative flow is both intriguing and unexpected.
By Tim Goodman FULL REVIEW

By Verne Gay FULL REVIEW
70

"Kidnapped," which gives us a frequently riveting story populated by intriguing, complex characters, is regular-grade TV trying too hard to be gourmet.
By Melanie McFarland FULL REVIEW
50
A high-octane cast brings some promise to the show.
