Review of Taken 3 (2014) by Michael1208 — 10 Jan 2015
While Fast and Furious franchise is successful in expanding into a larger scope and at the same time to maintain its original theme, it seems that Taken has been trying its best to follow the same path but ended up with incoherent direction and almost diverting entirely from its basic.
It's always great to see Liam Neeson back in action, but this slightly skewed towards family violence drama than the action sequences of race against time in the first episode seems to be less exciting.
It has some memorable score (A Stutter feat. Arnor Dan by Ólafur Arnalds), it still presents the same kind of lifeless actions with some unintentionally hilarious moments which shall manage to attract the attention of the crowd, otherwise it just changes the previous mediocre Taken 2 into Taken which the taken target this time is actually the audiences rather than the characters themselves.
