Movie Review: Taken (2008)

Quick synopsis: Liam Neeson plays former CIA agent Bryan Mills. His daughter Kim goes on a little vacation trip to Paris where she is kidnapped by some Albanian prostitution ring . Bryan Mills, being the biggest living badass in the Western hemisphere flies to Paris to get his daughter back. The viewer follows his adventures as he destroy a good chunk of the French capital, wrecks a few cars, kills a couple hundred bad guys, and retrieve his daughter. All of this in about 93 minutes.
Fast-paced action movie, don’t expect much else. Liam Neeson put up a very good performance, although he didn’t have to do much in terms of emotion except look angry. Very good fight scenes. Weak plot and many holes but who cares?

    Only C? I though it deserved a bit better rating than that (I’ve rated it as 9/10).
    Anyway, nice blog/site you got here, I’m gonna check other reviews when I get the time.

    I wouldn’t call them weird, only underrated. But yeah, sometimes they can get weird, especially the Asian ones.

    Feel free to leave a comment or two. When I get the time, I will probably include your blog on the link section (if you don’t mind) because it’s quite good and refreshing.
