    Taken

    Some give this movie rave reviews, while others say it's one of the worst they have seen. I went in to this movie with high expectations as I usually adore French produced action-thrillers. This movie did not disappoint! Is it often exagerated and far-fetched? Absolutely! Is it entertaining? Most definitely!!! Liam Neeson shines as the hero father out to get his kidnapped daughter back. The story is actually pretty good and solid. The suspense is top notch. The flow is a bit choppy and the movie is a little short at 93 minutes, but it still packs a punch! Think of a cross between The Transporter and the classic Schwarzenegger flicks (without the cheezy Ahnold one liners)! But this movie actually has a decent story. And the action scences are... well... they are entertaining for sure!!! And that's what this movie is all about: taking you away from your life for a little while and just entertaining you. And for that, it succeeds tremendously. So I have to give this one a solid 9/10 as it is an excellent movie, and a must see... if you love action movies that don't expand on storyline too much.
