Hello… is this thing on? Well… I feel bad because I haven’t used this thing in a long time. Anyways, I can’t let that get me down. I am here to tell you about Taken with on of my favorite actors Liam Neeson A.K.A. Qui-Gon Ginn from Star Wars: Episode I. All I can say is that this is nothing like Star Wars, and I loved it. Usually when Star Wars actors are in movies, I have a hard time not imagining them as that character… except for Harrison Ford and Samuel L. Jackson of course (and maybe Ray Park and Anthony Daniels), but I digress.
Alright, on to the review now… this movie is an edge of your seat, unbelievable thrill-ride. I was very surprised at the level of action in this movie. Taken definitely did not disappoint and I found myself at many times in awe of what was going on. This movie reminded me of a Jason Bourne type movie, but even a notch higher. This movie was only 99 minutes long but it seemed even longer than that. I loved the action and level of acting in this movie. The sets in this film are stunning and the plot, for the most part, is simple and believable. I have to give this one an 8 out of 10. The best action movie of the year, 🙂 okay there aren’t that many yet, but I will definitely get this one on DVD.
