A action packed movie that is fast paced through the whole entire movie. "I will find you and I will kill you".
| 10/10 | jonathanw2010@ - 7 reviews 26.2.2011 - age: 13-17 |
I was so into the movie. This is incredible. 1st time in years I was so excited by a movie. The end is predictable, but not the journey. Full of action, and revenge is always a good theme!

Liam Neeson is a major reason Taken, a riveting, revenge thriller gets high marks. It's a Neeson driven story and he doesn't disappoint for anyone who likes him or a good adventure/thriller.
| 8/10 | karen_lett@ - 361 reviews 24.7.2010 - age: 36-49 |
It had a pretty simple plot with descent acting and I would say it had pretty good action. Overall a pretty good thriller.
| 7/10 | jonathanb1933@ - 101 reviews 21.5.2010 - age: 13-17 |
This is a great movie to see lots of action parts in it and good to see with the family and your other half.

One of my all-time favorite movies, Liam Nesson at his best!

Du suspense qui se maintient tout au long du film avec la phrase que j'ai adoré (... I will find you and I will kill you... Good luck)
| 10/10 | lpdevils3@ - 2 reviews 19.8.2009 - age: 36-49 |
Non-stop action thriller. While you have to suspend disbelief frequently, you don't mind as the emotional impact of a father kicking serious butt in his desperate search for his daughter hits home. Definitely every father should sit down and watch this with his teenage daughter - especially since most don't have a fraction of the skills that Liam Neeson's character does.
| 8/10 | craig_k@ - 31 reviews 17.8.2009 - age: 26-35 |
Good action movie. But, couldn't they find a more beautiful daughter? She did not look 17.
| 9/10 | casej1954@ - first review 19.7.2009 - age: 18-25 |
A fairly taut, fairly gritty, fairly noir, familiar tale of a father who communicates better with actions than with words.
| 7/10 | spoxox@ - 30 reviews 18.7.2009 - age: 36-49 |
Great dialogue, great acting in most scenes, but seemed a little too easy to for Neeson to find his daughter. Still a good movie, well worth watching.
| 8/10 | sweatjocky@ - 33 reviews 13.7.2009 - age: 26-35 |
Very badd[...]. For a 61 year old man, Liam Neeson is very fit and the film is what a good action film needs to deliver. It's short and straight to the point and once again, badd[...].
| 9/10 | gaiderdraco@ - 14 reviews 5.7.2009 - age: 26-35 |
Taken is a awesome movie, keeps you on the edge of your seat. Non stop action.
| 9/10 | jo_annmac@ - first review 29.6.2009 - age: 50+ |
Amazing amazing amazing! You must see it. Your life will not be complete without it.
| 10/10 | ittybittyleah@ - first review 22.6.2009 - age: 13-17 |
An amazing action packed exciting thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat glued to the tv.
| 9/10 | landen_ames10@ - first review 31.5.2009 - age: 18-25 |
Suspense and the action here is a definite sock knocker:) I really enjoyed this ride!
| 10/10 | borasca0107@ - 33 reviews 31.5.2009 - age: 36-49 |
This movie seemed to have a lot of hype. Perhaps thats why I wasn't that thrilled. Good... but not amazing. I did think Liam Neeson rocked but he always does :)
| 7/10 | steenmachine@ - 48 reviews 23.5.2009 - age: 18-25 |
It's a great movie must see it , it was worth it. Suspence is good and the ending is good too.
| 8/10 | bebe.yohan@ - 2 reviews 23.5.2009 - age: 26-35 |
Great movie!!! Very suspicious at areas and some areas were so obvious but that was a thriller! PS: watch the movie in the theater much better than at home!!!
| 8/10 | lankan.ang29@ - first review 18.5.2009 - age: 13-17 |
This film is a typical "rock em sock um" action movie with great action scenes and little plot depth or character development. Stereotypical heros and vilains battle it out in their white hats and black hats and with the bad guys spilling enough blood and guts to satisfy. I laughed out loud at some points (as did a few others) although I am certain this was not the reaction intended. None the less, I enjoyed it enough but I recomend waiting for the DVD.
| 6/10 | bwp33@ - 60 reviews 10.5.2009 - age: 50+ |
This movie grabbed my attention immediately as it had the feeling right from the beginnning that something terrible was going to happen. Liam Neeson was flawlessly cast and filled the screen with testosterone, action and compassion. It was over the top but that's what the bad guys deserved. Paris scenery was pleasing but really could have been shot anywhere. If you're critical and want a nonfiction Jane Austin you won't like it. If you want entertainment and action this movie will keep you on the edge of your seat. And yes, it was very hard to sympathize with the spoiled overindulged daughter and the manipulating devious exwife.
| 8/10 | ssmidt@ - first review 10.5.2009 - age: 50+ |
Best movie ever with an excellent message not only to teenagers but to everyone. In these times "TRUST NO-ONE"! Even knowing the outcome, I would watch this one again. MUST SEE.
| 10/10 | mopsyz@ - 7 reviews 9.5.2009 |
Taken was amazing non stop action all the way through I love the story line. Its definitely a movie you want to see in the theatre because it wouldnt be as good on a smaller screen. The acting is good and it keeps you on the end of your seat. You know everything will make it in the end and things will work out but the movie makes you second guess yourself.
| 10/10 | casuperfital@ - 22 reviews 5.5.2009 - age: 13-17 |
Great movie, action all the way through. Good story.
| 9/10 | aquadrag47@ - 3 reviews 2.5.2009 - age: 26-35 |
Pretty decent action movie. There's not much to the plot and it honestly doesn't really differ from a Steven Seagal revenge movie except for acting and production quality. Hard to feel sympathy for the spoiled daughter though.

Great show. Liam is a great actor. The bad guys get it good.
| 9/10 | john.jarrett@ - first review 28.4.2009 - age: 36-49 |
Lives up to the great reviews given by others on here. Edge of your seat thriller, with a James Bond meets Jason Bourne feel. Really enjoyed the storyline as well as all the action.
| 9/10 | casserly5@ - 136 reviews 26.4.2009 - age: 36-49 |
Brutal in almost every respect. Writing is cliched. Plot is implausible and contrived on pretty nearly every level. And the acting is atrocious save and except Liam Neeson -- BUT he plays a middle-aged guy who makes Bruce Lee look like a wuss (i.e., gimme a break) Only two types of people should watch: those who like movies that are so bad, they can enjoy the groans. And those who want to see a little Paris scenery.
| 2/10 | rite60@ - 2 reviews 25.4.2009 - age: 36-49 |
I really like the movie. Its full of suspense, I preferred the beginning, and the begin part in Paris.
| 10/10 | jymumu@ - first review 23.4.2009 - age: 18-25 |
This movie is quite predictable. I didn't like the message of playing into the fear of parents letting their children grow up. I also am quite tired of American sterotypes of evil people (of course they are not American)
| 5/10 | laureenas@ - first review 23.4.2009 - age: 36-49 |
A wonderful movie! The acting was fascinating. It was one of the best movie's I saw this month.
| 10/10 | christeensedarous@ - 5 reviews 21.4.2009 - age: 13-17 |
Very well acted; great actor in Neeson. Whole story is captivating.
| 9/10 | jackielarmour@ - first review 18.4.2009 - age: 36-49 |
The root of the plot behind Taken was, to me, very disturbing but put it also put a more human face on a tragic and unnecessary evil that some if us, myself included, don't think about that often. The darkness of the theme aside, 'Taken' was great entertainment. The plot was a great pace and the characters, for the most part, were typical and believable. There was enough onscreen to keep you engaged. However, watching Maggie Grace act in the role of an "awkward teenager" was itself awkward, after seeing her in Lost on TV. Better than most movies in early 2009, and not too disappointing.
| 7/10 | ottawa.moviguy@ - first review 18.4.2009 - age: 36-49 |
Liam does an American accent (o dear - the drone) James Bond without the gadgets. Good cinematography. I enjoyed the cold-bloodedness of it. All in all, it was lame and I was sorry I spent the money.
| 2/10 | basilpie@ - 10 reviews 13.4.2009 |
Great movie, a real thriller. This is a breathtaking movie, not out of rage, realistic, you can only enjoy as the plot thickens.
| 9/10 | renelle.roy@ - first review 13.4.2009 - age: 36-49 |
Enjoyed action adventure and would see it again. The story is simple and well told. The editting of the action sequences is excellent, creating a fast paced adrenalin pumping story. There are enough coincidences to make the plot development questionable, but this is easy to overlook with the pace of the film. Cinematography was average. Overall: good action adventure.
| 8/10 | czinkota@ - 35 reviews 11.4.2009 - age: 50+ |
Excellent movie, good suspense-thriller. Liam is a great actor, although this does not really make you want to go to Paris...
| 9/10 | felix_thiel@ - first review 9.4.2009 - age: 26-35 |
I saw it last night and it was a very good movie. A must see.
| 9/10 | amaliaquintanilla@ - first review 9.4.2009 - age: 18-25 |
Taken, was one of the best movie I've ever watched. It's thrilling from beginning to the end. A must see!

I loved it... I know that moms usually tell you stuff like this can happen, but it never occurred to me just how easy and awful it could be. I thought that Liam was a little over the top, kind of unbelievable that he could kill all the bad guys and rescue the girl... but it's the movies right! If your daughter was taken this is what you would want to happen, it's what I would want to happen.
| 9/10 | raeralston@ - first review 7.4.2009 - age: 26-35 |
Very good action movie. I absolutely loved it! The action just never seems to end, never a dull moment.

| 9/10 | italianbella_12@ - 8 reviews 4.4.2009 - age: 18-25 |
This was the best action movie I've seen in a long time. I liked the story very much. The character of the biological father was well played by Liam Neeson. I loved how he fought to get his daughter back when she was kidnapped. Other characters did not convince me at all their acting was too fake in my opinion. But it is an excellent movie I would recommend for parents, young adult and any adult to watch.
| 9/10 | ahomkababaa@ - first review 31.3.2009 - age: 36-49 |
The story was really excellent. If is a very good action movie I liked the father. He was excellent because Liam Necson was a fantastic father I didn't like mother stepfather daughter or the ending.
