Review of Taken (2008) by Domo — 16 Feb 2009
I like Liam Neeson. I like Luc Besson. I even like Pierre Morel and thought his District B13 was great fun. But this? No, not so much. "I'll tear down the Eiffel Tower if I have to" and such dialogue was worse than any fingernails on the chalkboard and the ignorant xenophobia that's framed as paternal love is so ridiculous it hurt.
Had they played up the camp aspect of all this crap it might have been more enjoyable.
