Movie Review :Taken 2

Share

Bryan Mills, the retired CIA agent, stopped at nothing to save his daughter Kim from Albanian kidnappers. The father of one of the kidnappers has sworn revenge and takes Bryan and his wife hostage during their family vacation in Istanbul. Bryan enlists his daughter to help them escape

PROS

  • Very intense action scenes .
  • Great acting by the whole cast especially Liam Neeson

CONS

  • The story was predictable .
  • The shaky camera technique was used frequently, and it was distracting . Understandably the shaky cam technique is used to try to make the fights seem more intense, but it in turn makes  it hard to follow the flow of combat.

FAVORITE QUOTE

Bryan Mills: Can you shoot?
Kim: No.
Bryan Mills: Then drive!
Bryan Mills: Listen to me very carefully Kim your mother and I are going to be taken and the people are going to come for you too.

CONCLUSION

Being a huge fan of the first Taken movie i was excited for this one ,although a bit skeptical whether it would be as good as it predecessor.  The basis of the plot was the same as the first movie ,but this one comes with a heavy dose of revenge and blood lust.Fans of action movies will love it.

Taken 2 is a great continuation of the story from the first film. This is Taken through and through and the gang is all here. Loads of suspense and while it may be predictable, if it’s not broken don’t fix it. Hopefully there will be a Taken 3 as i feel the story is not yet over.

RATING

4 out of 5
