Taken (2008) – Review

4 Stars
Every father’s worst fear comes true in this gripping, fast-paced film from prolific producer Luc Besson. An ex- government agent travels to France in order to rescue his virginal daughter. Who’s been kidnapped and soon to be sold into a sex slave ring. Liam Nesson is absolutely convincing in the lead, bringing intelligence and strength to a role that may have been played by Steven Seagal 15yrs. ago. Famke Janssen is also well cast as his more open-minded ex wife. Film rarely slows down, heading to an especially satisfying conclusion.
Director: Pierre Morel
Stars: Liam Neeson
