Film - Taken

Taken was worth the wait for me. A good mix of action with some great arm too arm combat that's reminiscent of The Bourne Identity or a James Bond film. I will say that the "baddies" need to learn how to shoot straight as in some scenes it is so unbelievable that not one of the hundred odd shots hit Liam Neeson.

Plot
----
While vacationing with a friend in Paris, an American girl (Maggie Grace) is kidnapped by a gang of human traffickers intent on selling her into forced prostitution. Now, her father, Bryan (Liam Neeson), a former soldier, must pull out all the stops to save her. But with his best years possibly behind him, Bryan's task may be more than he can handle. Directed by Pierre Morel, this relentless action thriller also stars Famke Janssen.

Easton · 05-13-2009, 02:30 PM

wow, it just came out this week? we saw it on DVD like a month ago...

pornguy · 05-13-2009, 02:31 PM

Awesome movie.. Hard to believe it is a french made movie.

Easton · 05-13-2009, 02:31 PM

wait ok i remember now, we had a screener's copy of it - now it makes sense

_Richard_ · 05-13-2009, 02:32 PM

i really liked this film.. thought it was done well

B O B · 05-13-2009, 04:36 PM

how did that submachine gun miss him
and how in the hell did he break a 5 inch pipe?

Meeper · 05-13-2009, 04:40 PM

I thought that movie was really well done. Very entertaining.

bronco67 · 05-13-2009, 06:03 PM

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.

fris · 05-13-2009, 06:14 PM

good movie, might see it again

bluemoney · 05-13-2009, 08:51 PM

I'm looking forward to seeing this one!

NaughtyRob · 05-13-2009, 09:54 PM

Saw it when it was at the theater, pretty good.

Cradle · 05-13-2009, 10:02 PM

awesome movie indeed

CYF · 05-13-2009, 10:07 PM

Kick ass movie, saw it in the theaters.

John-ACWM · 05-14-2009, 09:58 AM

Saw it about 6 months ago.It was a very entertaining movie and some memorable lines from Liam Neeson.

JenniDahling · 05-14-2009, 10:15 AM

Very formulatic but done well. At least the end wasn't too cheesy, unlike The Sceptic a good movie that had a suck ass ending, which I also rented on PPV that same night.

Ross · 05-14-2009, 11:58 AM

I loved it. Went in not expecting much but really thought it was a great movie.

hypedough · 05-14-2009, 12:04 PM

Awesome movie, great dialogue. Bronco you look too much into the movie, grab some popcorn and just enjoy it.

Far-L · 05-14-2009, 12:14 PM

Sorry... imo... THAT MOVIE FUCKING SUCKED BIG ASS MONKEY BALLS!!!

It was a perfect example of every fricking crappy movie retread of every stupid cliche that makes typical hollywood fair so predictable that you could almost say the lines before they were actually spoken.

Pure DRECK. Unfiltered SAP.

I think the Bourne movies are just ok but they are like works of genius comparatively.

tranza · 05-14-2009, 12:40 PM

I havent watch this one yet..

Moses G · 05-14-2009, 12:44 PM

one of the few movies i have seen this year. really enjoyed it

SBJ · 05-14-2009, 12:49 PM

Well I'll let you know what I think of it tomorrow. I ordered Taken and Sex Drive (unrated) on blue ray and they are coming in tomorrow morning

Yes it was a good movie but you must have been watching a different version than I because he most definitely got shot.

No it doesn't compare to the Bourne series but I didn't think it was supposed to be. The OP is the first person I have heard to compare the two. The actress is 26 and IMO played the part very well and looked the age. I was actually surprised she was as old as she was when I checked.

BTW, just because YOU didn't like something doesn't mean there is something wrong with people who DO.

WebairGerard · 05-14-2009, 01:11 PM

haven't seen it yet but with all the good reviews here I think I will pickup the dvd

TubeTitans_SusieQ · 05-14-2009, 01:45 PM

I tried red boxing it last night and i couldnt

i think they were all out...

gmr324 · 05-14-2009, 03:43 PM

Can't wait to see this one. I like Liam

cykoe6 · 05-14-2009, 03:54 PM

Obviously it is very formulaic but I found it uniquely enjoyable for various reasons.
