Solid sequel

Rating: 7/10 (23 June 2013)

I had not great expectations after I have read the reviews. But Taken 2 was much more better than the critics wrote here. For all the following reasons I gave a solid 7/10:
1) Fast paced action movie with full of suspense
2) Very interesting detective and espionage details
3). Short running time of the DVD
4) The good story sticks to the first Taken
5) Good direction
6) Full of adrenaline car chases in Istanbul
7) The end leaves place for a possible third part
What there could have been better is perhaps to built up more subtle elements in the story. Here it went to quick and without surprising moments to the point.
