Here's the characters in Taken, in a nutshell:

Me happy, goofy 17 year old portrayed badly by full grown woman. Me love daddy.

me bitchy mom. Me keep daughter away from dad. Me bad.

Me oblivious, but wealthy stepdad. Me like Liam, but me give more to his little girl than he ever can.

Me Liam, me want back in daughter's life. Me love her so much. Me lovingly caress pictures in photo album. You not go to France. Me overprotective.

Anyone that could think that this crap is anywhere near the quality of the Bourne movies should have they're skull checked. They tried to do that and failed. The only thing good about it was Liam neeson, and that wasn't nearly enough.

Full of way too many contrivances, has an annoying 30 year old actress playing a goofy 17 year old girl, an ex Special ops barbecue(hilarious) and an escape from certain death based on the a loose bolt on a pipe in France. I don't even ask for that much from movies but thought this was some fucking garbage.
