TAKEN

LIAM NEESON IS NOT A YOUNG MAN. HE IS A GOOD ACTOR, BUT NO ONE IS GOOD
ENOUGH TO MAKE THIS POOR IMITATION OF A BOURNE FILM INTO A BOURNE FILM.
THE BEGINNING OF THIS FILM IS SILLY - LIAM TELLS HIS DAUGHTER SHE MIGHT BE
RANDOMLY KIDNAPPED IF SHE GOES TO PARIS ON A TRIP WITH ANOTHER GIRL.

HER PLANE LANDS IN PARIS AND SHE IS KIDNAPPED ALMOST AT THE AIRPORT -- MARLON BRANDO, COULD NOT MAKE THIS WORK - IT IS AS IF JACKIE TURNED TO JOHN AND SAID, I HOPE NO ONE SHOOTS AT US WHEN WE PASS THE TEXAS SCHOOL BOOK DEPOSITORY TODAY.

ANY PLOT IN THIS FILM IS JUST TO HAVE AN EXCUSE FOR GUNFIRE AND EXPLOSIONS. THIS IS A TEEN VIDEO GAME, TRYING TO HAVE NEESON GIVE IT A LITTLE CLASS.

I THOUGHT THE COMING ATTRACTION WAS INTERESTING, I WAS RIGHT, THE REST OF THE MOVIE IS JUST SHOOTING AND MORE SHOOTING -- CASTING THIS OLD GUY TO HAVE A TEENAGE DAUGHTER WAS MORE REMARKABLE THAN HIS JUMPING IN AND OUT OF WINDOWS AND BEATING YOUNG GUYS TWICE HIS SIZE AND HALF HIS AGE TO DEATH.

I AM HAPPY TO GET UP IN THE MORNING AND MAKE TOAST, NEESON'S CHARACTER HAS KILLED THREE OR FOUR GUYS BY NOONTIME.
