Very good to watch. Some plot holes but everything can be explained with the glorious "Of course, he learned that with his past job"

Rating: 7/10 (20 February 2012)

I really liked this movie. I must say I wasn't expecting too much of it. Yes, Liam Neeson is trademark for good acting but the topic seemed too much "cliché": pretty-naive-girl being kidnapped -- angry almighty father going through everyone-everywhere to rescue her. Now I am really pleased to note how wrong I was.
Even though the aforesaid is the main engine of the film, it is framed in the context of trafficking in women, a very interesting and sad topic to watch. These kind of "business" is re-arising nowadays, specially in Europe, and this movie is a good way to involve those who are not aware of its reality. Everyone of us have either a daughter, a sister, a cousin -- unfortunately we have not Neeson's abilities, otherwise everything would be easier.
The movie is easy to watch, and has a constant thrilling atmosphere that keeps you with both eyes on the screen. It has some plot holes, I must say, but nothing so important, and nothing that can't be explained with the "of course, he learned that while working as a spy/preventor" argument.
Please, go see it, and if you don't like it contact me. I will reimburse your money :)
