Taken was a tough act to follow. Unfortunately, Taken 2 fell short on most of the basics of a movie. The story is dry, very predictable, and short. Within a few scenes, Liam Neeson is back into some action. Not so much that its too soon, but with what story they gave you, the entire movie felt just like a chase and lots of frays. Thankfully Taken 3 takes care of all of those mishaps, but that's another review to be written.

I went to see this with so much excitement. I LOVED the first one. But this garbage....no creativity no originality. it's Taken...AGAIN. "Hey guess what we took a different member of your family. Time to do the exact same stuff in this movie except in a different city and with the time frame of an afternoon instead of a couple of days so no room to tell any story at all!" Disappointing.

The acting is not as good as in the prequel. Main character seems more terminator like. In the 1st movie you can actually feel his desperation to find his little girl. In this one he lacks emotion. Also, the plot is lame. For the bad guy, it is sad when they give a good actor a poorly developed role with a lame script. Overall good actors in an under cooked script. Still somewhat entertaining. Good to rent, bad to see in the theater.
