Taken

I saw this last night and liked it. Not an amazing movie, and predicable, but action packed and satisfying to watch.

I'm not the first one to make a comparison to Man on Fire with Denzel Washington, but I feel it's a bit different than that movie. The premise is very similar. Girl gets kidnapped, man carves out a swath of death and destruction to find her at all costs. However I found Liam Neeson's character to use more intelligence gathering tricks, subterfuge, and clever tactics than Denzel's character, which lends a slightly different feel to his rampage and it's less over the top. More guile, less guns.
