Don't mess with Liam Neeson

Rating: 10/10 (13 January 2009)

Very surprised at how much I enjoyed this film. I thought it was terrific. It doesn't try to do too much or try and trick the viewer. It is a very well crafted story of Liam Neeson kicking some ass. Good plot, good action, good casting. A+ in my book. Hope you all go to see it. This is the first time I can recall seeing Liam in an action movie actually DOING the majority of the action (he didn't really fight much in Batman Begins), and I thought he performed brilliantly. Famke Janssen (and I know I am probably butchering the spelling of these names) also plays a great role. Any normal parent can consider the Mother she plays as just a horrible mom; letting your kids do whatever/whenever. Needless to say, by the end of the movie, I think she learned her lesson.
I even liked the smaller roles the other ex-'preventers' played. Their appearances were brief, yet powerful and very well done. Hope you all feel the same way I did after seeing this. It could be a surprise box office smash.
