He knows that crime syndicates can't flourish without the involvement of corrupt law enforcement, politicians, & government officials. Always a network from highest to lowest. He knows that predators and human traffickers are going to surveille airports & bus stations, etc. for potential victims. He knows their habits, methods, thinking, channels & modes of operation. And he obviously knew that French Official & his family, & worked with him before. And he knew by his indifference & refusal to help him, that he was corrupt. So while the rest of the world sees adventure opportunities, & positive potential in the people & the world around them, he is very cognizant, of the workings of it's underbelly all around him, as opposed to just being "paranoid". And he knows how girls think, how immature & incredibly naive they are. Obviously he understands how men think, how predators think, & how men of other races, especially eastern cultures, target women in general, but especially value virgin girls. Amanda in this, was a "party girl", & probably not a virgin. She told the guy that they had the place to themselves, because she thought she wanted him. Wanted to party with him. Wanted to hook up with him. And she wanted to string Kim along, & introduce her to that, free & easy, party lifestyle. To drag her all the way to France, free of chaperones & parental influence, to pull her out of her shell. On the one hand, she was not so innocent & kind of knew what she was doing, being deceitful; but on the other hand, she was also still very naive herself, so she was much more of a walking contradiction than Kim was. And unfortunately she paid dearly for it. I think this movie is very good at opening people in general's eyes to societies underbelly, & educating them, but especially girls & young women.

@@benjamindorough6129 u r absolutely right to have that kind of mindset, because there are some people in the world that are horrible and as a species in general human beings are capable of a lot of truly horrid crap. It happens wayyyy more often than people are willing to admit acknowledge. That's why people like this character being ultra paranoid shouldn't regarded as crazy or unreasonable because that way of thinking is pretty much the safest way to live. Preparation is absolutely critical to ensuring a person's safety no matter what situation you find youself in. The sad part about this sort of scenario is that the vast majority of people will get grabbed because their mindset is somewhat docile in nature which makes a hell of a lot easier for people like that to kidnap. Because only people like intelligence agents or even the average soldier can spot suspicious things like that. If folks like sex traffikers are around, then unless you have that sort of mindset from the very beginning, ur chances of avoiding capture are sadly incredibly low. society pushes the idea that having such skills are unnecessary, but everyday someone is kidnapped or forced into slavery that idea is made more and more foolish naive.

I like the fact that Neeson's character and his daughter actually have a healthy father-daughter relationship *before* the movie starts. They aren't estranged, she' isn't overly rebellious, and she doesn't act like she hates him. They're a just a dad and his little girl. Even when she calls him when they get to the apartment, she genuinely feels bad that her friends relatives aren't there even though she thought they would be and she doesn't lie about it. They have a perfectly healthy relationship and get along just fine. The only time she even gets upset with him is when he's against her going on the trip and he gets upset that she didn't tell him they were following this band on tour. Not perfect, but normal.

I have weird nostalgia with Taken. This came out when I was starting college and half a dozen people (myself included) who had randomly shared classes but didn't know each other super well, formed a group of friends. All just out of being bored one night and as a group deciding to just go see what the cinema was playing down the road. After that every week we'd get back together, go out to eat, introduce our friends and partners to each other, etc, for years. All out of an action flick centered on Liam Neeson throat-punching people. 🤣

I remember when this movie came out, everyone criticised the casting of Liam Neeson (before seeing the actual film), saying he was too old to play the believable action hero. Since this film however, he’s pretty much been cast in nothing but action films, so now it’s Liam Neeson saying, “I’m getting older now. At some point it has to stop.” The two sequels Taken has are well worth seeing, though admittedly not quite as good as this one in my opinion. Can I request you add Lethal Weapon series to your movie polls too? I’m almost certain you’ll both love them.

This movie probably opened the gateway for older action stars to still be desirable, such as John Wick and the Equalizer. You've seen John Wick, but definitely can recommend both Equalizer movies as well with Denzel Washington. If you want more Liam Neeson: - Schindler's List (very heavy topic, but movie based on a true story and very well acted/written/shot) - Batman Begins (not the main character in it, that's of course Bruce Wayne played by Christian Bale, but played it well) - Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace (not my favorite movie but Liam Neeson is probably the best part of that movie) - The Grey (Liam Neeson against wolves... I mean... do I have to say more?)

Liam Neeson. A Irishman who was an ex-boxer, who went on to become helluva actor and also an Oscar nominee (Best Actor in Schindler's List, 1993). But 20 years plus into his career, this gem of a film made him the new thinking man's action hero. That phone call scene is unforgettable. The selling point of the movie and it's first trailer. Many more movies like this he's done and it's fun to watch Neeson take it to the bad guys. As for the Taken franchise, part 2 is great. Part 3 is decisive for not being a good finale. There was a tv series, a prequel set years before the first film (ran for 2 seasons).

At least not these two teenage girls. Not saying there aren't 17 and 19 year olds that would make way wiser choices here, but oof.

Ofcourse the action and brutality is well performed, but it's this bitter aftertaste, like you know this is happening all around the world, millions of people (kids!) are suffering in human trafficking matter, drugged, ready to die, etc. Taken right off the street. (In some mid-east countries you might be even abused and raped when you're a woman (tourist) and thrown into jail afterwards for unproper behaviour!!) Just thinking about someone you care for ending in such scenario gives you goosebumps. Everytime you watch a movie or a documentary about this matter, you realise how sick the world is... and all these Marvel kid movies where they trying to save the world from some pity aliens seem even more ridiculous. Great reaction as always, really enjoyed it! Similar theme might be 8mm with Nicolas Cage (I don't remember/know if you've watched it already, if no, go and watch it)

Before this movie came, it was almost a direct to dvd movie and it was not hyped at all, just a regular action movie. As i thought before first time watching it. When i was done, i sat in couch for a couple of minutes and thinking " damn this is one of the best action movies i ever saw" And i didn't saw it coming, wonderful feeling when you not expecting it

For the record Liam Nieson was around 56 years old at the time he made the movie in 2008, and he is still making action movies at 69 years old (he turned 70 in June); 2022's "Blacklight" being the latest.

Liam Neeson was already a veteran actor at the height of _Taken_ or _Star Wars_ , you should add to your watchlist Liam Neeson's _Michael Collins, Rob Roy,_ and _Schindler's List_ .

When they say "edge of your seat" they are talking about movies like this. The last 40minutes I was literally on the edge of my seat in the theater, the tension was so intense. For more dark thrillers I would also love to recommend: Stir of Echoes, Edge of Darkness, Gothika, Collateral, and Copycat 😉

Great choice, hope you guys will react to the sequels too and when you like this revenge stuff I recommend the movie "Law Abiding Citizen" (2009) with Jamie Fox and Gerard Butler in his best role for my opinion.

That was ironic that you jokingly mentioned brain swelling in the intro. That was how Liam Neeson's wife Natasha Richardson tragically died in 2009, after an apparently minor fall while skiing, where she bumped her head.

Man they showed a teaser on tv using the scene of Kimmy and Amanda being taken. And man that part of the monologue. The warning. That’s what hooked me in to see this movie. Both the warming & the “good luck” hooked me. I was like “I gotta see this. This looks to be good and boy it didn’t disappoint. 2 more followed. The second was pretty good. The third was ok

Great movie. Other great movies like that are Equalizer with Denzel Washington and the first Bourne Identity movie. Other great Liam Nisson movies are Rob Roy 1995 and Darkman 1990 which is an original superhero movie Sam Ramie made before he got the rights to do the Spiderman movies. Another great movie like this is the first Jack Reacher (Which has a great Amazon series named Reacher)

Thank you. I'm ambivalent about the first sequel. It screams "sequel" loudly, but it actually gives the wife and daughter something to do. The second sequel has a whole different plotline, and the twist is very depressing. Similar roles Neeson has done include "Unknown," "Non-Stop," "A Walk Among the Tombstones," and "Run All Night." Plus several others that I haven't seen and can't recommend good or bad. Also check out Mel Gibson's "Edge of Darkness."

This film (along with Batman Begins around the same time) kickstarted Liam Neeson's career as an action star. It's been nice to have such a wave of older action heroes in the past 10 years, and not just that Expendables stuff. People like Dave Bautista, Michael Rooker, Keanu Reeves, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Bob freaking Odenkirk...

That the thing about Brian Mills. On one hand, he's a lovely father and an all-round nice guy who's mostly likely go out his way to protect people like the singer despite the fact that she disrespect him. But on the other hand, he can be a ruthless killer who wouldn't hesitate to kill anybody who either gets in his way, sees as a threat or piss him off. In both all three movies and the Taken TV series, Brian Mill have proven that he's the type of guy you don't want to mess with

Your child being at risk is the one thing that will bring out the darkest side to anyone no matter how good they try to be in life. Feeling as though my kids where in danger was the first time I accepted that I would kill someone to keep them safe. It reminds me of an episode of Castle. If you’ve ever seen it then you know that Castle is a jokester that can find humor even while in danger, it was when his daughter was kidnapped we see a side of him that was dark. He found a man who knew information and the man refused to talk to the cops so he asked for a moment alone with him. He begged the man to just tell him what he needed to know but when he refused the scene changes to the man screaming behind the closed door. We never know what he did to him, only that he got what he needed. It’s chilling and sadly relatable. What don’t know what we’re capable of doing to someone else until that moment.
