Somewhat predictable but extremely entertaining! Go see it!

Rating: 8/10 (26 March 2009)

"Taken" is a movie that you can go to and just escape for an hour and a half. In the fast paced style of "24" Liam Neeson plays an ex government agent who knows how to get results!
The film took the time to engage us with the characters and especially the relationship between the father and daughter.It made the pursuit a personal rescue mission rather than just a vendetta.
Although the plot was somewhat predictable (who couldn't see the kidnapping coming when the daughter lied about her proposed Museum trips in Europe?) it was still very entertaining. The Pop singer touch was nice too.
Go see it and enjoy!
