Red Siren

This is a foreign movie, but for the life of me, I can’t figure out which country. There are French, British, German, and American accents abound, but it does take place in Europe since they’re driving to Portugal (I’ll make that leap). Girl shows up at a police station and turns in her mother for murder, handing over a dvd of a brutal bondage slaying. Her mother is wealthy and well connected and tries to get her daughter back by sending her goons after the kid. The kid ends up in the backseat of a random Volvo driven by an ex-military guy who’s trying to get out of the business. The girl tells the ex-military guy she’s looking for her dad in Portugal. He’s going to take her there and find her dad, but the kids mom is tracking them the whole way. This movie would have been a lot better if had more A) plot or B) shooting and C) ‘splosions. As it is, it’s just a long action flick set in Europe. It's about 16% as good as Taken was.
