Ransom (1996) **

Mel Gibson plays a millionaire whose son is kidnapped, but who refuses to pay the ransom. Instead, he puts a bounty on the kidnappers' heads. Suspenseful thriller, severly undermined by many plot inconsistencies. Why, for example - SPOILER ALERT - Gibson's son doesn't recognize the kidnapper's voice during the rescue, but does recognize it a few days later at the penthouse ?
