Taken

I went into to this movie expecting a lot. This was the first time since "The Dark Knight" that I was going to pay to watch a movie. As much as this pained me and my wallet I decided that there is a different feeling that you get when seeing a movie on the big screen rather then in your house (cave for me). Never the less I did brave the outside world to see it. It did not let me down....

I heard that most of the movie was Liam Neeson running around europe beating people up. THERE IS NO IDEA THAT CAN TOP THAT.... Unless he was a samurai... from the future. Neeson really did just beat the crap out of people. That was the movie. Neeson would talk and then fight. There was some side note about his daughter or cat ( i dont remember) being kidnapped but I just thought that was the excuse to make a movie originally called "Liam Neeson beats the shit out of France". Now thats a catchy title if you ask me. The sequel could of been " Liam Neeson puts his foot up Hong Kong's Ass". As long as Neeson wasn't explaining how my favorite childhood story was cause by micro organisms in the persons body I knew it would be a decent watch... fucking star wars.... 

I never really thought a movie could make me feel bad for hookers but this one sure as hell did. During points of the movie Neeson would beat his way into a french whore house and would attempt to free as many as possible with out having to stop whooping ass. Now most people here in America imagine hoes hangin out with 50 cent or something but in France there is no 50 cent in sight. Instead of 50 they have Boris the dirty euro trash pimp and he sucks ass. At least 50 wouldn't get them all addicted to smack and then sell the to other euro trash... Anyways, it was rather sad to see people being sold like cattle but it only make the ass kickings that much better. 

As you all remember from my flock review I have a issue with people going in to dangerous places without a gun. The difference between these two movies ( other then "the flock" sucked) was that Neeson didn't need a fucking gun. Unlike Gere who slapped people to try and frighten them Neeson would punch the skull out of the back of your head!!! At one point he rams a bottle of wine in to a guys chest! IS THE EVEN POSSIBLE?!?!? Once again I would like to pitch my idea for the next one... MAKE HIM A SAMURAI!!!!

Over all a very enjoyable watch. If you like raw fighting scenes like that of the first die hard (not that polished dog turd live free of die hard...) then its worth a watch. My only gripe is that it was only a hour and a half. I paid 10 bucks to see that!!! I demand that the next movie I see be 3 hours long to make up for this...

On my scale I give it 8 dragons
