Reviews

There is no mythology, no irony, no real soul--just a Charles Bronson simplicity about the whole affair.

If there are any "24" fans who have wondered what the TV series might be like if Liam Neeson replaced Kiefer Sutherland, Taken provides an opportunity to have that question answered.

Taken shows Mills as a one-man rescue squad, a master of every skill, a laser-eyed, sharpshooting, pursuit-driving, pocket-picking, impersonating, knife-fighting, torturing, karate-fighting killing machine who can cleverly turn over a petrol tank with one pass in his car and strategically ignite it with another.

Variety
Neeson growls his way through the functional dialogue as an unstoppable killing machine in impressive, cold-eyed style.

Propulsively outandish thriller.
