I feel that this movie was very meaningful and takes a lot of time to fully understand it. The main character, Jason Stevens, persevered through to the end and along the way learned how to be a better person. He showed honesty when he told Emily he had no friends and was in need of one. He also showed sanctity of life when he tried his best to run away from the kidnappers and succeeded. It shows that he wouldnпїЅt just throw away his life like that and do his best to stay alive.

Family was a main part because family raises you to become who you are and that they also support you in what you are doing if itпїЅs right to them. Learning taught him that his answer to something may not be necessarily correct and that you should listen to what others say and differentiate between them. He learned that money wasnпїЅt always there when he needed it and that money
