Now's not the time for dick measuring, Stuart!

Rating: 8/10 (7 March 2009)

On thing that is a sure as the sun coming up tomorrow is that a film written by Luc Besson will be thrilling. There's Taxi 1-4, Transporter 1-3, Leon, the Professional, and many more. This is just another one of Besson's magical films that will thrill you from start to finish.
Darkman himself, Liam Neeson, is magnificent as a father that will do anything for his daughter Kim (Maggie Grace). When she is taken for the sex trade, he springs into action that keeps you on the edge of your seat until the end.
I have seen some very good films about the sex trade. Mira Sorvino in Human Trafficking, and Kevin Kline in Trade; but, Neeson is at the top of the game in tracking though the muck of this business to get to the top. We see all levels of the business on the way, and we glimpse the dregs of humanity in the process.
Realistic car chases, plenty of scum left on the floor, and some very satisfying justice makes this the most incredible 93 minutes you can experience.
