They took his daughter. He'll take their lives.

''If you let my daughter go now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you.'' A former spy relies on his old skills to save his estranged daughter, who has been forced into the slave trade. Liam Neeson: Bryan Mills Director Pierre Morel, you have picked a rocket ship of thrilling intensity to cling upon, parnering up with Luc Besson just works every single time. I'm sad that his declaration of being finished with the director's chair may be true, however, his scripts are mounting and pumping out many action packed, entertainment laden efforts. If one can get the Transporter series to make money from its wit and smartly executed action, you know you are doing something corr...Read more

"Taken" is a hard hitting, action packed thrill ride, that will be sure to have you wanting more. Bryan Mills (Neeson) is forced to rely on former skills as an agent when his daughter is kidnapped in Paris by a group of foreign criminals. This film is alike certain films, but more like the Bourne series. I noticed a lot of similarities along the way. The fighting styles, fast paced camera movement, chases, and just the overall look of the characters. If your looking for in depth/Oscar winning picture, you won't find it here. This is most definitely for the thrills and entertainment. That's not going to say it has no story, because it certainly does. There wasn't anything visibly wrong with this film. It did what it set out to do: entertain people with non stop action. It kept me ent...Read more

very good, a must see

Liam Neeson stars in Pierre Morel's very fast moving film which is written by Luc Besson(Leon, The Proffesional) and Robert Mark Kamen(the Transporter 3). Nesson plays Bryan Mills a former spy who is very good at what he used to do. Although not much is mentioned about his former duty. He proves his point with the no- nonsense attitude to make James Bond even smirk . "I'll tear down the Goddamn ifiel tower if i have to" is one line to tell you just how motivated mills is in getting his daughter/brat kim (maggie Grace) back. THe film opens with a short home video of kim when she was in her early years, as a child. however and unlike Death sentence the film quickly moves through this little bit. When Kim decides she wants to go to paris with her best rich friend amanda (Katie cassidy) does M...Read more

Enjoyable pure actioner!

"I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don't have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let me daughter go now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you." Taken is an invigorating, exciting, feverishly-paced action flick, and one of the most overlooked and underappreciated screen gems of 2008. It's thrilling, tightly-told, energetic, utterly relentless, and consummately entertaining. Adhering to the current trend of contemporary action movies (such as the Jason Bourne series), Taken is ...Read more
