Taranji Henson and the woman portraying her mother give excellent performances in a true story about a woman's child being kidnapped by the father.
Of course, little is made of the fact that Henson, a look-like for Diana Ross, is a teacher who had a child out of wedlock. How times have changed!
Also missing in the inter-racial angle, not only for the fact that the father is an Asian person, but that Henson's new husband is white. This was refreshing to see in the film.
The film depicts the problems associated with custody and the bureaucratic tape that Rubin faced when the father took the child to Seoul, Korea. Getting the boy back was definitely a harrowing experience. This was one situation where taking the matters into your own hands was certainly more than justified.
