Here's what's first up for me in Jan 2015. The thing is, no one gets 'taken' in this movie and the plot sounds more like The Fugitive.
First one was good. Second was MWAH...barely passable.
Spoiler:
His wife gets killed. Murder-Revenge flick.

They have an interesting marketing campaign. If you win, Liam Neeson will endorse you on LinkedIn. http://www.businessweek.com/articles/2014-12-17/linkedins-new-promotional-stunt-features-liam-neeson

The trailer alone is better than the entire second film. Still can't believe there's a 3rd film though.

It took quite some convincing to get Liam to do a 3rd. However, it makes Taken a trilogy all the same.

I must say Liam neeson is a great actor and he did a great job in this movie. You know Taken 3 has been included in the top 10 liam neeson movies list.

I look forward to TAKEN 4, where Liam Neeson must get his dog back.

Dude...if Bond can have 24 movies under his belt, surely Liam can have a trilogy.
Remember, the story line in this one is a departure from the other 2.

I'm aware of that, but I'm watching TAKEN 2 at the moment, and two things stand out in my mind - first, that Neeson's escape is perhaps the most imaginative that I have see on film; and second, that the direction is completely flat. There are sequences that should be exciting, edge-of-your-seat stuff, and yet they're boring.

I thought the first one was OK ... not great, but not bad. Didn't bother with the second, mostly because they went for a 12A/PG-13 rating and this one's done the same. Hate it when action franchises do that.

I didn't find her particularly annoying. And even if she was annoying, the problem is in the direction, not the acting.

It was pretty good, I liked it. Might go again as my daughter wants to see it.
