Truly Awful

Rating: 1/10 (4 January 2013)

Don't watch this if like me you loved the first film. Whereas the first film concentrated on brutal hand-to-hand violence with very little editing, Taken 2 decides to scrap what made the original so refreshing and concentrates on idiotic gun-play and horrendous car chases, and the editing is so fast and furious it is obvious that the makers decided to cash in and cut the film for a teen audience. Furthermore Neeson looks tired throughout - maybe he regretted his decision to make this "tripe" and just couldn't be bothered. I was shaking my head in disbelief the whole way through and one thought kept running through my head for the entire film: "WHY, WHY, WHY?"
PROBABLY THE BIGGEST DISAPPOINTMENT I'VE EVER SEEN, IT DOESN'T EVEN DESERVE 1 STAR - DREADFUL.
