Default Taken--Advance Preview

Got a sneak preview copy of Taken

Pure adrenaline revenge flick that is very satisfying

About a guys daughter and her friend who are in France and are "taken" into the white slave/postitution industry

Turns out good old Dad is an ex-everything and he is pissed!!

Body count is totally unrealistic and Liam Neeson is a wee bit overthehill for what he accomplishes

But think Hard to Kill meets Deathwish and you get the idea

I was smoking a Vsg sorcerer (churchill) while watching and I nubbed that baby from sheer edge of your seat action (this guy gives you 1 chance to answer and that goes for women too--no BS with long speeches-sweet)

I recommend this flick to you guys that will do anything to get your family back if they are "Taken"

I saw this a month or two ago and I agree, it is a good action movie. I liked it.

Happy to hear it was good , Liam Nisson being cast in a role like this always worries me honestly, but glad to hear he carried the character.

Really?? He's one of the few Actors that I think brings life to a film, versus being just IN the film...think Tom Cruise, et al....

I like him and his acting, I think he can do action pretty well, his voice is just ... I don't think his vocals are on par.

Don't get me wrong, I like him, he just seems, calm and proper even when being shot at or mid argument (when character is stressed).
