Fifteen years ago, Michael Stone fled the wreckage of a failed convenience store robbery, leaving his crew to take the fall. One of them—Hector, the gang’s volatile leader—went to prison. Michael, desperate to escape that life, joined the Marines, buried his past, and built a new one: decorated soldier, devoted husband, loving father.
But the past has a long memory—and it wants everything he’s built.
Just hours before returning home from deployment, Michael’s wife and young son are abducted by Hector, recently released and hell-bent on revenge. With only 24 hours to save them before they’re executed, Michael is forced into a relentless warpath through Chicago’s underworld. Trained for combat but haunted by guilt, he must embrace the very violence he’s tried to leave behind in order to survive—and protect what truly matters.
As the body count rises and time slips away, Snatched evolves into more than a rescue mission—it becomes a reckoning. For Michael, redemption doesn’t come easy. It comes in blood.
Snatched is a high-octane, emotionally grounded action thriller with franchise potential. Combining the tactical realism of Sicario, the family-driven stakes of Taken, and the visceral energy of John Wick, it explores how far a man will go to reclaim the life he once believed he didn’t deserve.
great emphasis on the backstory in the logline. interesting indeed, our protagonist is not just any guy or a husband, he is a man with some serious past, and he is a marine. fleeing the scene, then joined the forces to train himself, it is interesting to see what motivated him to join the marine force. Now the past has comeback to haunt him, it would be crazy if you can increase the stakes by adding time he has to save them in the logline.
