awesome movie!!

Rating: 10/10 (6 October 2008)

Neeson is awesome in this movie. Famke Janssen provides the eye-candy! (hot!) Great plot, keeps you interested all the way through the movie. A must in a movie of this nature is a believable storyline, and in my opinion, this is perfect. A father loses his daughter to the bad guys, kicks ass and takes names, gets his daughter back. But doesn't get back with the estranged wife (Which would have been predictable) at the end. Each character is supplied with sufficient background information so that it doesn't seem as though John Doe from LA/New York/London has just taken on and defeated the entire world. Neeson convinces the audience that he can, and will, do whatever it takes to rescue his daughter. Brilliance. Although I, in my opinion, doubt it will get an Oscar, because the movie is not about World Peace or some other random political rambling. Great work by Liam Neeson and (fairly new director) Pierre Morel. Great Casting, great direction. In all, a great movie. Miss it at your peril!!!
