Taken
Bryan Mills, a former government operative, is trying to reconnect with his teenage daughter Kim. After reluctantly agreeing with his ex-wife to let Kim go to Paris on vacation with a friend, his worst nightmare comes true. While on the phone with his daughter shortly after she arrives in Paris, she and her friend are abducted by a gang of human traffickers. Working against the clock, Bryan relies on his extensive… From TMDB

unlabelledView post →Two #LiamNeeson movies just cleared out from the Tivo: #Taken (2008) and #Blacklight. Neither has dated at all well. Taken began a fairly dismal and repetitive movie franchise, but now has the retrospective added zest (if one can call it that) of #HollyValance pretending to be a friendly pop star. Without harping on unpleasant subjects, I shall merely say that Blacklight's visions of an outspoken opposition politician, an FBI director, and special U.S.A. federal agents, as well as its ending,…

unlabelledView post →Taken is one of those action thrillers that doesn’t waste time getting to the point. The plot is straightforward but gripping, setting up just enough character development before throwing you into a tense, fast-paced ride. It plays on a real-world issue in a way that feels urgent, making you root for the protagonist as he fights against an unrelenting system. While the villains aren’t particularly deep, the generalization works in the movie’s favor, highlighting the unsettling reality of…

unlabelledView post →Just watched Taken for the first time, and it's such an incredibly weird film. Liam Neeson doesn't want his daughter to visit Paris because it's so dangerous(?) there. And his wife seems to broadly agree with this assessment(???) even though she's in favour of the daughter taking that chance. And then the daughter gets to Paris and is kidnapped(?????) by the literal first person she meets. I should probably feel bad for France here, but mostly I'm just embarrassed for the USA. #film #Taken
unlabelledView post →You will find this movie. You will watch it. This movie came out of nowhere! The trailer for this film relied on just one short scene of Liam Neeson threatening a kidnapper on the phone... and that was all we needed to be hooked! A basic revenge/rescue movie elevated by fantastic action, stunt directing, and Liam Neeson's delivery, all transporting this thriller into a believable reality. One of the best of the genre that paved the way for John Wick.
positive · AI labelView post →Your arrogance offends me. It is proof positive that you can still have a basic and formulaic genre piece and the multiplex crowd will forgive it the sins of film making. For here we have a revenge thriller that is over reliant on a ream of contrivances? The kind that people scoff at when horror pictures not wanting to be serious get screamed down for?. There is also some pretty poor acting performances on show, the usually reliable Famke Jansen looks lost when asked to show emotion, Maggie…
positive · AI labelView post →Random viewing tonight, just wanted a slick and simple action-thriller and this fit the bill. Liam Neeson kicks ass and can see why his career in this genre really took off. The camera work was probably the biggest drawback (shaky cam), likely trying emulate the Bourne franchise or something. But entertaining flick that doesn't overstay its welcome coming in at around 90-minutes. 4.0/5
positive · AI labelView post →Probably not good enough to have started the Revenge-Renaissance that it somehow did, but still a pretty entertaining time. Taken does hit a lot of clichés though, and I mean, it starts hitting them right away. We're literally only minutes into the film before we find out that Neeson's lead character is divorced, and his wife has re-married to a decent, rich provider, but one who's bookish and could never take him in a fight, and that the present he got for his daughter is for an interest that…
neutral · AI labelView post →Daddy knows best — especially when it comes to a mostly untrustworthy cast of Europeans — in this action film. Liam Neeson's performance elevated this from being forgettable. Otherwise, I kind of didn't care.
