I’m an action guy and there is no dearth of action film these days. Every male actor seems to want to try their hand at a James Bond, super-operator, gun wielding, bad ass. Taken follows the mold with few detours. Liam Neeson is adequate as the ex-CIA operative who has 96 hours to find his daughter before she is lost in the underground world of white-slavery. His character is perhaps more brutally efficient than some and he is certainly not afraid of ‘wet work’ as he turns beautiful Paris upside down in his search. The stunts are nothing new. Lots of quick Wing-chun, Aikido and Krav maga style close quarter combatives. I can’t say it was a bad movie, but it wasn’t very interesting either. It was mildly entertaining. If you like action and Liam Neeson, you could do worse.
