Are the reviews on this page legit or plants from the studio?

Wow! Judging from the reviews on this site you would think "Taken" was this incredible, non-stop thrill ride, when AT BEST, it's a disappointing rental. Every aspect is far fetched beyond belief.
The nasty ex-wife, the rich step father that gives the step daughter anything, who begs the lead for help after he realizes he was wrong,the naive daughter who is kidnapped 20 minutes after getting into the country. Then Liam Neeson springing into action and blowing up every and anything.
Every step of the way this film never rises above cartoon status. Reading the comments on this site, I'm frightened for the future of man. Then again, "Mall Cop" was number one two weeks in a row, so I was already afraid.
