I am a big fan of the first taken movie, it not only had professional cinematography but great action, suspense and originality. Now this sequel i am ashamed to say was a money grab by the producers. Now Luc Besson and Robert wrote the original script without being pressured by their superiors to be limited to a marketable plot, unfortunately thats what has happened to Taken 2.
Was an ok movie. Not in the same level as the first one. Everything happened rather fast. No sense of urgency as in the first one. I wanted to see more out of Famke Jansen. She was

Didn't like the movie (but was actually better than what my expectations were). Was the director different for this one? It really stood out to me how slow the choreographed fights were. The camera moved all over trying to make it look fast, but if you watched the actual action, it was step by step and slow.

its entirely possible about the daughters bf, but i do believe taken 2 is it
I'm willing to believe that Taken 2 isn't as bad as critics are making it out to be, but I'm still gonna have to wait a while to find out for myself.
I've read a couple different places, though, that Taken 3 will be happening. (Cuz this has already killed at the box office.) click. And it's supposed to “go in another direction."

yeah, it had the top spot(U.S) two weeks in a row. They are not letting that cow go dry anytime soon.
Saw this for cheap tonight. It wasn't bad. I can see why it didn't get great reviews, but it's about what I expected from a Taken sequel. The choppy editing was a little overdone at times, and there wasn't the same sense of urgency like there was in the original, but it was definitely entertaining. I look forward to seeing what the "new direction" will be like for part 3.
