Comment: STAR RATING:*****Unmissable****Very Good***Okay**You Could Go Out For A Meal Instead*Avoid At All Costs Don't Say a Word is a kidnap thriller.It doesn't market itself as anything to the contrary.This film has been done many times before,a prime example being Mel Gibson's 1996 film Ransom (which was much better by the way).But then look how many times the film Die Hard has been re-done (Sudden Death,Under Siege,Passenger 57 et al) .Nevertheless,each new cover version looks slightly more thrilling.DSAW is what's known as a time filler.There's some slant originality in the kidnappers not wanting money,but a secret,but otherwise the best place to catch this is probably on TV.**
