Taken for A Positive Vehicle Here ***

Rating: 8/10 (5 December 2009)

Interesting film dealing with an over-protective combat veteran father who doesn't like the idea that his 17 year old daughter, spoiled by her mother and her wealthy second husband, plans to spend the summer in Paris with a friend.
Naturally, the girl and her friend are kidnapped by an Albanian group of thieves looking for extortion or selling the girls into slavery.
Neeson, looking fit, turns in a wonderful performance as the father. He literally turns into a Rambo in dealing with the kidnappers of his daughter.
The film has plenty of action and is well paced in the tradition of the James Bond films.
