Description:

You may not have heard of Kristen Stewart, but she's a promising young actress who's previously appeared in Panic Room, the underrated The Safety of Objects, and Cold Creek Manor. Her charm gives a lift to preteen heist flick Catch That Kid, in which she plays an aspiring mountain climber who gets knocked off balance when an injury paralyzes her father. Unable to raise the money for an expensive operation, she commissions her two best friends (Corbin Bleu and Max Thierot) to help her rob the bank where her mother (Jennifer Beals, Flashdance, In the Soup) works as a security consultant. This hokey but serviceable premise quickly turns into an insult to logic and common sense; Catch That Kid is a disappointment from intriguing director Bart Freundlich (The Myth of Fingerprints, World Traveler). Stewart has charisma; let's hope she can find a better vehicle for her talents. --Bret Fetzer
