Taken
 
I took the wife out to see this movie last night. Wasn't expecting much out of it. Boy was I surprised! It's no Academy Award winner by any means, but it was a nai-biting, edge-of-your-seat type of film. Thoughts?

Was able to come back into town this weekend. The boy and I went seen the first showing of the day on Friday (so he played hooky). Excellent movie. I thought it was the best movie I've seen in a while, other than Gran Torino. Without giving out any spoilers, I think this movie expresses something I think all of us would do for our children, if we had certain skills.

Very entertaining. He's Jack Bauer on steroids.

From a pure entertainment standpoint, I'd give this one 5 stars. Just sit back and enjoy for 90 minutes.

Liam Neeson was such a bad ass MF in this movie. He would give the 80's and 90's Steven Seagal a run for his money! :tu

Good movie!!

The wife and I tried to see this last night, but it was sold out in two theaters and the 10:00 shows were way to late for us. Now I know why I prefer to see matinees. :) We'll try again next weekend.

haven't seen it, but I really want to, Liam Neeson is such a stud (no homo)

My friend went to see this yesterday, and said it was great. I am really looking forwart to watching this one.

I watched this over the weekend and thought it was a good, solid movie. You just have to suspend disbelief and you're set. Good action and Liam was a bad a$$.
