5.0 out of 5 stars Great entertainment and also horrifying..., 29 Jan 2009
By Rafal Gruszczynski (Warsaw Poland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Taken [DVD] [2008] (DVD)
There are two sides to this movie - the serious one and the fun one.
The serious is that it tells a story based on things that really happen (the women's fate in this movie). My wife just watching these scenes was so horrified and pissed off in the same time that I haven't seen her like that. The bad characters are 100% bad and you feel great when they are taken care of by the enraged father.
The fun part is that the story is very fluent (not believable but you wish you were this guy with his set of skills to do the job that he is doing).
Another idea of Luc Besson - and a brilliant one.
Liam Neeson - I was disappointed when I saw his name in the leading role. But when I saw him in action...he is 100% convincing and excellent in this role.
Looking for a good action movie that will keep you glued to the screen for 1.5h?! - This is your 100% guaranteed pick.

4.0 out of 5 stars IF IT MOVES, HIT IT!, 17 Nov 2008
By Adam Jackson "Symphonic Metal Fan" (Stoke On Trent , England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Taken [DVD] [2008] (DVD)
Superior action thriller, with an 80's style linear plot but with 90's sensibilties. Really enjoyed this - the action was gritty and on the
whole grounded in reality - and Liam Neeson was more than convincing at the Bourne style hand to hand combat, and firearm handling, as well as playing an essentially hard man role with a strong sense of dignity and morality.
The Paris locations, and Albanian gangs made for an interesting change as well!
Yes, it's predictable but refreshingly free of the usual malaise of trying to be clever & twisty and then dissapearing where the sun don't shine.
It's violent, but perhaps not to the extent of say, Death Sentence, and Liam Neeson does seem to beat/torture/shoot everything that moves!
There are some grim scenes involving the young girls being trafficked that only serve to increase your desire for Neeson to punch even harder or shoot an assailant 5 times rather than 2!

5.0 out of 5 stars Liam Neeson...The new action star!, 13 Feb 2009
By RDL "review monkey" (Staffordshire, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Taken [DVD] [2008] (DVD)
This film took me completely by suprise. Upon watching the first 20mins I wasn't sure where it was going. It is hard to picture Liam Neeson taking on an action role, but he pulls it off very well. Those who are fans of the Bourne Identity films will appreciate that Neeson gives Matt Damon a run for his money. The fight scenes are very well choreographed and the storyline doesn't lose its pace. If you are a fan of the modern action film but enjoy a gripping, tense storyline then this is a must see.
