Great entertainment

Rating: 9/10 (19 January 2009)

Just enough information about the characters and their relationship with each other is given to us before a this fast action packed story has you glued to the screen. Liam Neeson's character for me is a cross between Jason Bourne and Frank Castle. He manages to make the roll more believable and human which gives more of a sense of what a parent/special agent will do for their kid who's life's in danger and the paybacks also catches you buy surprise when your expecting a little mercy towards the BG's. Neeson pulls off the fight scene's with ease and comes across as one super bad ass which isn't hard to imagine if you have scene Batman Begins, Michael Collins or Rob Roy. This film for me play's out like a joint of Rob Hoods style of minimal techno - Unique, no BS and straight to the point...
