Good guys triumph

Rating: 9/10 (31 May 2009)

I liked this movie. Lots of action, suspense, car chases, fist-fights and gun totin' baddies. I was dismayed to imagine that young people traveling abroad are in danger of being abducted and no one seems to be doing anything about it. I hope that's not true. I like a fast-paced movie and this certainly fit the bill. Good father/daughter scenes. Would watch this movie again - probably several times. I am a true Liam Neeson fan and wish he made more movies. "Michael Collins" is my favorite, along with "Rob Roy" (in which Tim Roth - now of Lie To Me fame - plays the best and most evil guy ever), and coming soon "The Red Circle" with Orlando Bloom. I give this movie 9 out of 10 - for action, suspense and generally good acting. Famke Janssen is great as the ex-wife, and Olivier Rabourdin is great as the hapless French ex-spy, desk sitter, Jean-Claude. Only criticism: Car chases and fights were too obscure. Better car chases in "Ronin".
