Editorial Review: Studio: Tcfhe Release Date: 05/12/2009 Run time: 90 minutes Taken (Two-Disc Extended Edition) Reviews: Taken  2009-10-28 - I really enjoyed this movie. The only problem was some of the filming. At times you could not determine in which car the main character was located, especially since the chase vehicles looked identical. I think that every parent should see this movie, especially parents of girls. Despite the intense action, there are relatively few profane words. That is a real plus for me. I guess I would see more movies if they were not profane. Liam Neeson did not disappoint in this movie. I have enjoyed watching him in the past in "Star Wars, The Phantom Menace".
TAKEN  2009-10-24 - I like action movies and this one is exceptional planned and the actor, Liam Neeson is great.
If you like action movies, this is one to see over and over because every parent would do whatever it takes to keep their children safe.
Taken  2009-09-14 - Great service and DVD.I still haven't loaded my digital copy as yet due to some of my technical issues, but we've watched regular copy multiple times and never a flaw.Thanks Rickey
Quite "Taken"  2009-09-12 - My thoughts on "Taken" are if you love a quick pace action movie look no further. Liam Neeson in a role as retired agent, who is trying to mend his relationship with his daughter. The story is direct and so is the action. This is one of the best movies I've seen this year.
Can a man, a good man, a worthy man, regain the respect of his ex-wife by killing dozens of Arabs and Slav thugs in Paris...?  2009-08-28 - "Taken" poses a number of fascinating questions, but provides few answers to discerning viewers. The many issues raised by this provocative film are:
1. Will a gang of eastern European thugs and white slaving kidnappers, living in Paris, accept a middle aged, former American CIA agent with a thick Irish accent as a Paris policeman, just because he shows them a French Police ID that he stole with a French name on it?
2. Can an American just arrived at Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris involve himself in a violent manic foot chase and wild fight with another man all over the arrival area of the airport, resulting in the death of the man being chased, and then suddenly appear in central Paris without much interest from the French police?
3. Can the distance between two nearly adjacent bridges in Paris be stretched enough to allow for a lengthy car chase that is really unnecessary because the hero could have walked to the next bridge in less time than the car chase takes?
4. Can an American, former CIA agent, with a thick Irish accent, pretending to be a Paris policeman, leap from the Pont des Artes onto a passing yacht and NOT have the yacht be filled with evil, Arab mobsters?
5. Can a movie involving a good but hard to get along with American former CIA agent, with a thick Irish accent, with a gorgeous ex-wife who has left him for a rich guy, possibly get to the end of the movie without the ex-wife admitting that her rejected former husband is a worthy man, a good man, a man she should have treated better and appreciated more?
6. Can the daughter of an American former CIA agent be kidnapped in Paris and turned into a drugged out, white slave whore for Arab mobsters and forced into prostitution, then saved by Dad in a bloodbath on the Seine, quickly get back to life as usual when Dad drops her off at the now appreciative ex-wife's house in Beverly Hills; will Mom & the American, former CIA agent with a thick Irish accent, reconcile?
These issue are profound, and frankly the answers are hard to come by from the film itself. It's worth thinking about, seriously...
