Not quite as good as the original but it came close. Very fast paced and exciting and different enough to be interesting. I say A-.

"We will find him. We will bring him here. We will not rest until his blood flows into this very ground. We will have our revenge." After his daughter (Grace) was taken and he went through hell to get her back Bryan Mills (Neeson) made a pact to be a more involved father. Keeping true to his word Bryan, his daughter and ex-wife decide to take a family vacation. While they are relaxing the family and crew of the men that Bryan killed in the first movie plot their revenge on him and this time Bryan is the one who is taken. This is a movie I was a little leery about watching. I loved the first one but I was really worried that this would be the exact same thing and would ruin the way I feel about the original. I was wrong. While this did have many of the same aspects of the first one there was enough differences to make this almost as exciting as the first one. Not many sequels can compare to the original but this one is close. Just as fast moving and thrilling as the first and if you liked that one you will like this one as well. Not much else to say about it other then this was better then I expected and this is well worth seeing. Overall, not quite as good as the first one but pretty close. I give it an A-.
