It goes straight to video without Neeson in it, but it wasn't terrible.

The man. The myth. The legend.

I'm not feeling the hate for Taken either.

Classic uptight movie snobbery.   Was it stupid, implausible and cliche-ridden? Duh.  It's a revenge action popcorn flick.  Neeson was such a ridiculous badass, it defied any logic whatsoever.  And guess what - that's the point.

The sequels were money-grabs but hell I even enjoyed those too.

Taken tries to be Bourne Identity minus all the cool conspiracy shtein.

I mean I enjoyed them exactly for what they were... I did go through with watching 2, 3, and taken on a plane after all. But they're hilarious like the newest die hard where they drive a truck off a heliclpter in mid-air.

1 was OK, 2 was rushed. Haven't seen 3 yet

Where do you people find the time to waste on these trashy movies?  Not a shred of art to them.  Even when I didn't have kids...there are books to read, women to farg.  Why for god's sake you would inflict this crap on yourselves, I cannot fathom.

Cast from Super Troopers wants to make a sequel...so they posted s video and asked for donations. Their goal was $2 million...in two days they've eclipsed $2.6 million.

The worst thing about Liam Neeson: Action Hero is it led to someone thinking Sean Penn: Action Hero might be a good idea.
I love two anti gun actors in a shoot em up movie.  Penn was good in Mystic River, that movie was Taken before Taken.

mystic river and taken really have no similarities except a father/daugher relationship
