Taken

What's a father to do when his virginal teen daughter (Maggie Grace) is kidnapped in Paris and sold off to a white slavery market? If the father in question is Liam Neeson as CIA agent Bryan Mills he becomes a one-man killing machine, going medieval on the ass of every fool who stands in the way of his personal rescue mission. It's fun for about 15 minutes seeing Neeson do James Bond as Daddy Dangerous. But the surprise wears off quickly. I suspect this guilty pleasure, directed at whiplash speed by Pierre Morel, will go down much easier on DVD with a few beers and a slice of pizza with extra cheese.
