Taken alright... title is accurate

Rating: 2/10 (23 July 2009)

You would think that if they were going to put out such a stinker that they would have at least changed the title of this movie.
I have no problem with the premise or the violence, but I thought for one the acting on everyone's part was horrible and so phony. It's certainly changed my opinion of Liam Neesom and I'm so confused why he chose to do this.
Almost from the moment the movie started I was uncomfortable with the dialog. It was forced and totally unrealistic.
When things really went south for me was when Liam was the bodyguard at the pop concert, and the barriers were broken down and all the fans starting rushing the star. Liam whisked her away, but... what's this? Someone.. already backstage is hiding in the curtains and jumps out and pulls a knife! What the? Where on earth did that come from? Niam slaps the guy around and boom that little plot line is toast. Totally unbelievable.
Trust me... this movie is pure garbage. Don't be fooled by the ratings here. Notice how there's almost no reviews with 5 or 6 stars? It's either 9 or 10 or 1 or 2. Trust the 1's and 2's!
