Viewing Notes

Stoked to finally see Taken. Lives up to the hype despite not being a “great” film. Lots of intensity and good action; completely unbelievable but earnest attempt to make it seem like it could happen. Still wondering how Liam Neeson’s character is able to kill so many dudes and apparently return to the US so easily. Still entertaining. Shocked that they sat on this for so long.
