Taken

Rating: Null/10 (22 March 2014)

Pierre Morel Film " Taken " is a 2008 action movie , Starring Liam Nesson as the main character . At the beginning of the movie , Bryan Mills , Liam Nesson , a former CIA refused to let Kim ,his 17 year old daughter, travel to Paris with her friend , Amanda .Lenore ,his Ex-wife , convinced him to let Kim go , if he wanted to gain her love . He then approved to her , and what he didn't know was that she was planning a Europe tour .
At the first scene of the film I felt uninterested by the intro , as for me I think it's the most important part of any film . It also does not highlights more on Amanda's personality , although she was a crucial part of the plot . As Kim and Amanda were kidnapped by groups who uses women for sexual pleasure and slavery , the film started to gain my attention and had me in suspense and eager to find out what will happen next .
What I liked most about the movie was its moral theme , people should risk and go beyond the limits for their beloved one's . It teaches us to always be there for our close people , and help them when they are in danger with whatever it takes from risks or limits we go above from .
A negative point of the movie plot was when Bryan went into the building of the gangs as a French Ambassador , and then he speaks in the English language with them instead of French . Also , Lenore showed no signs of worry to her daughter , and did not insist in traveling with the father to look for her kidnapped child instead of sitting home waiting .
I recommend these to movie goers whom like fast action and incredible fighting scenes with a hint of unrealistic action that will not cease to keep you amazed . Also , I recommend " Man on Fire " directed by Tony Scott and " Speed " directed by Jan De Bont if you liked this movie
