In this thriller from Taiwan, a police detective desperately searches for a kidnapped child, and eventually enlists the help of a psychic medium.
The title is fitting, combining the kidnapping case with the supernatural elements. It is probably not the first movie with this combination, but it does it tastefully. It is not meant as a horror, since those things are not portrayed as scary.
There is some action, but the main focus is on police investigation. This part is logical and well done as a mystery. A nice touch is that it is not only the prime detective doing all footwork and thinking. A couple of other characters also make small observations and realizations, making it into a nice team effort.
The acting holds a good quality, with no weak link. The most iconic and memorable character is probably the psychic.
It is a solid movie with no weakness, except that it is plain and not weird or original enough to make a strong impression.
