    Amanda was a devious, lying little slut.

      what you have to understand is that Bryan might still kind of be pissed at Amanda. after all, she's the one that started this whole problem, and had it not been for her, Kim would be safe and sound. i'm not saying Bryan was glad she's dead, but his anger at her and his grief for her probably balanced out, and thus, he felt neutral about the whole thing.

        He didn't really care about anything but saving his daughter, as the scene at his friends place suggests. He shoots his wife to get him to help him. Brutal, yes, but effective nonetheless.

            He takes burned phones and calls the local version of 911 at each location, dropping the phone there to be tracked. It's not shown because you shouldn't be watching this movie for filler-character closure. That's more of an issue for your butthurt-curing therapist to engage in. Try to keep up with the storyline, not the whole world in a movie that was intended to be a S2DVD, according to Liam Neeson.

              If he cared about all the girls in the world in an environment with INSANELY intelligent/violent men, he'd be shot dead or take so much time that Kim would have disappeared in the world of forced prostitution.

                He never cared about Amanda. Remember that when Bryan traced those guys through the phone the first time, he told them if they release his daughter he would let the matter drop, but otherwise he would find them. He never mentioned Amanda and so presumably they could keep her?

                  His attitude might have been that it was Amanda that got Kim into trouble in the first place going to paris and all that ergo he did not care for her.

                    This just falls under the category that the audience doesn't have to be shown every single conceivable little detail but can just assume it happens off screen.
                    I know people have to pee, defecate and baththey didn't show anyone ever do it, how did everyone go 3 days without peeing? We just assume it happens off screen.
                    Obviously at the end, the pop star's house we can assume some time has passed since her rescue. We can assume she's gone through a lot of emotions and grief and needed lots of therapy in that time..trauma, fear, depression, the loss of her friend. Why must we be shown every conversation, every tear, every nightmare to assume it happened? So since we weren't shown her meeting the pop star and then bursting into tears and screaming AMANDA!!!!!! AMANDA!!!!! NOOOOOOOO!!!!!! on the star's front porch why does that have to mean she never grieved on those months or dealt with her emotions?
                    Not EVERYTHING has to happen on screen.

                      Because she was dead.
