100 Word Movie Review – Taken

Liam Neeson is sad. His wife divorced him, leaving with their daughter, because he was too involved in his work. Then the aforementioned daughter is kidnapped while on holiday in Paris. Luckily the work he was too involved in was for the CIA and it left him with “a very particular skill-set”.  He duly sets off to get her back. That’s it. That’s the whole movie. There is no deeper meaning, no unsettling revelations and no inter-personal conflict. The focus is on brutal, realistic combat. It delivers in that regard. If you’re looking for non-ridiculous action give it a viewing.
