Maddy (Kristen Stewart) is a 12-year old girl who loves to climb. Her father has climbed Mount Everest, so it runs in the family. Several years earlier Maddy's father fell more than 100 feet during a climb, and because her parents are afraid she might hurt herself, they have ordered Maddy not to climb. Maddy's father had some internal injuries from that earlier fall, which he didn't know, and now the injury has paralyzed him from the neck down. There is an experimental operation, costing $250,000, which can save Maddy's father. Insurance won't pay for the operation, and the family doesn't have the money. Maddy and two friends break into a high-tech bank vault, designed by Maddy's mother, to get the money. The vault is suspended 100 feet above the ground, and Maddy must use her climbing skills to get to the safe. Her friends use their computer and mechanical skills to defeat the bank's high-tech security. This is a kid's version of Mission Impossible. Kids will like the movie, but adults will just have to endure it with their children. (20th Century Fox, Run Time 1:32, Rated PG) (4/10)
