Entertaining fluff

Rating: 9/10 (3 February 2009)

A well-done shoot-em-up starring a great actor. Neeson projects the quiet competence/confidence of a professional agent/spy/thug very ably.
The movie had a plot hole or two but they weren't outrageous. My biggest gripe is how the good guys with pistols somehow manage to kill/take out the baddie with a machine pistol. Near the end of the movie Neeson should have been shot dead in the back but miraculously escapes harm from a spread of bullets. (Does this qualify as a spoiler?)
Tough subject matter and one wonders how true it is these days. Sexual enslavement of Eastern Bloc women has been going on for a decade or two but are tourists being targeted as depicted? Scary!
In any case, this is a good film with some well-deserved brutal justice handed out.
