Nice Movie

Rating: 7/10 (6 April 2014)

I must admit I did not yet see the first part of Taken, so my perception is not marred by any comparison. I like Liam Neeson, I really like Famke Jansen, I do like Luc Besson's films, and the soundtrack was very cute, especially The Chromatics' theme melody. So, my impression overall is very positive, I did enjoy the fast, furious, straight pace of the movie, the simple plot, the quick exchange of events, and the clear ideas of the script. This is a simple, clear and decent movie, without all the false pretense and puffed-up dialogs. Thas is what made it fun to watch - very straight and rather logical. Some might say the film is predictable and not original, lacking the fresh ideas, but some on, men, when did you last see any real fresh ideas movie? Good job of all the main actors, good camera work, good sound, good picture- the movie is really good and smart. Exactly what a good thriller should look like
