It's my first time to join Tuesday Couch Potato meme hosted by Kikamz. Thanks for the invitation sis. Since I discovered blogging, I seldom watch movies but I couldn't forget "TAKEN" which my hubby and I agreed that it's the best action movie we've seen so far.We couldn't let go of its jaw-dropping action sequences.
It's a story about a former spy that relies on his old skills to save his estranged daughter, who has been forced into the sex-slave trade. I assure you, I like the ending and the daughter wasn't "touched". The actor of this movie, Liam Neeson, isn't that famous like the actors in James Bond and Jason Bourne but the taste of his handy work around ten minutes of the thriller impressed me much. My mom watched this and she didn't get sleepy and 93 minutes passed swiftly without noticing it. My bro who appreciates action movie once in a blue moon couldn't help applauding after the film...LOL! Neeson was great, and I can't wait to see the movie many more times. It's worth the money to see this in the big screen. One commenter said, "Neeson is the vodka of James Bond's martini". I agree with him.
I couldn't forget this scenario when Neeson was talking on the phone after his daughter was kidnapped , he said "I don't know who you are, but if you don't let my daughter go, I will find you, I will kill you (in a composed voice)" and then the kidnapper replied "Good luck". He recorded this conversation and HE INDEED FIND THIS MAN!
Have you seen this movie? Better watch it for yourself and tell me what you think. Happy viewing.

is this a new film ba? di ko pa napapanood to, so this will go in my to-watch-list too! neeson, for me, is one of the finest actors in hollywood. he can portray a role very effectively and i will definitely look for this one in video stores.

ReplyDeleteHave a fun Wednesday!Hugs & kisses to Hyzyd!Good morning Gene!:)
This was a great movie with a moral.. one the parents should always agree on the behalf of the well being of their children, secondly- young girls should watch because they walk around in this world thinking everything and everyone is safe. They are NOT... there are bad people every where and you never know the evil intent in their hearts!
ReplyDeleteAnother good one is My sister's Keeper... I did not care for the profanity in the movie, but the story line, was great!

ReplyDeletePareho pala tayong Jenny ha & I'm glad pareho din tayo ng paboritong libro.Have you heared that Sydney Sheldon's had been passed away in year 2007?Kaya pala wala na syang bagong novel ngayon.I have all his books walang pinlagpas talaga hehe & ofcourse I already read The Master Of The Game ang ganda ng story 'though lahat ng story ay magaganda talaga.
Have a lovely Friday to you & your family.Hugs & kisses to Hyzyd!:)
