Wow. I need to see this.

Liam Nesson is chilling those kidnappers should be scared!

Taken is an awesome action movie with a stellar performance from Neeson. It stretches the boundaries of believability, but it's extremely entertaining nonetheless.

And I second Neil's statement above about supporting the movie when it finally hits theaters. Even the folks who picked the DVD up in Chinatown, watched it, enjoyed it, and maybe even wrote a review on it for FSR should and will see it again on the big screen.

Liam Nesson = badass Irishmen.

MrDeath · 10 months ago

So true. He and Daniel Day-Lewis could create a black hole of Irish badassness if they ever happened to be in a movie together.

As for the clip, it is awesome. Though that girl couln't even listen to simple instructions. Come on!

more people need to be aware of sex trafficking. It's one of the most shameful hidden secrets in the modern Western world today. The movie looks great.

Rob_Hunter · 10 months ago

I agree, but this is not the movie destined to do that... it's too much fun. Have you seen the recent movie Trade with Kevin Kline? It's incredibly good, suspenseful, and a much more sobering look at the whole disgusting affair. Which unfortunately means it's destined for obscurity.

Trade was quite good and really opened my eyes to the horrors of sex trafficking. I had no idea it was still so abundant in today's world it's a must see for people that are blind to this horrible reality.

The movie was to my surprise pretty decent. I think they should have went with a harder rating, and pushed the limits on the movie to be honest. Certain scenes could have been that much more devastating. I never knew there were so many uses for nails. Certain plot elements seemed a little too convenient, but over all Neeson is fun to watch.

There's an "Extended Harder Cut" coming out on DVD in the UK on Feb 9th. I'm expecting that to be even more enjoyable.

I have always been a Nesson fan since his days back as Darkman, Lus Besson has been hit or miss with me but this looks very worthwhile.

Yeah the pirated aspect may hinder the opening weekend but it's an amazing film so it should built up great word of mouth....Fox lost out on a lot of money by waiting this long to release it...

everyone should go see this in theaters and take as many friends you can along with you...it's the best action movie I've seen in a long time...I felt the Bourne films were missing a few elements which Taken has

One reason the film has been heavily pirated is because it came out months ago all across Europe. This is the problem now with their being gaps between releases, usually it's the US that gets it months before the rest of the world, but either way, it just means that whatever country gets the film last (in this case, the US) gets to suffer at the box office because half of the country has already seen it. In this age of information, movies would benefit a lot better with simultaneous releases (even the Dark Knight had a weeks break between UK and US release and that movie was leaked after only a day and a half). I know studios don't always have full control over this, especially if they sell international distribution rights to other companies, but it is something they should work on more.

I will be seeing this and will have a few friends go with me as well.

I personally don't like watching ripped copies, they are normally not complete.

i saw this a while back, online streaming video, and i would have to say i am going to see it again in theatres. Very entertaining, he totally is like a unbeatable badass, but its totally plausible and i dont think anything he does makes me think "ya effin right no way he could do that"

its like a jason bourne movie without the shakey cam and if he got old haha

see this movie!
