It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

This movie does not offer any surprises. The plot is linear, no turns in sight; it's as if the original film has been remade. Lots of shooting, car chases, people dropping dead; it's the usual fare. Neeson looks good, sounds good, and shoots good. He is like the unkillable hulk, just like the first movie. The other actors don't have much to do. They are either running, shooting, or fainting. Unlike the first movie, this does not have any memorable dialogues, not for me. If you just want to see an action flick, or if you haven't seen the first movie, you can go for this one, but don't expect too much. If you have seen the first one, maybe you can leave this one out.

After reviewing other reviews I am left thinking what do I see and enjoy on this movie, Taken 2 that is the first of the series I have seen. I thought it was great and like any movie the location is never spot on, and that's what makes it even more enjoyable and fun to watch.I thought Liam Neeson and Kim did a fantastic job. Well done. Now I want to see taken 1 and hope there might be further movies.I'm not sure what others see to say it was nothing but a comical movie filled with laughter.I also think the goofs adds to the movie and it makes it much better for a first time viewer.It's a movie I would highly recommend for many. And I know many who don't have their drivers license that would drive automatic, who hop right in and know how to drive a stick shift more than anything.Love the ending where their having Sundaes and Jamie joins them. It was a movie filled with lots of action; heck when it gains my attention as people try to text and chat with me on facebook it must be good.When's the next one coming out?

OK, it's a sequel. But uniquely, it's actually rather good.OK, there are one or two clichés with that Romancing the ex-wife thing, but even so this is excellently written, and makes use of superb locations.It takes about 20 mins to really get going, and then you are on the edge of your seat. All the essential elements are there from any decent thriller, but you never find the movie formulaic.You probably know the good guys are going to win - they always do! - but even so the masterful direction manages to build suspense, and the ingenuity of our Hero when faced with his predicament is both novel and entertaining. A refreshing and fully engaging movie from a talented team of writer, director and cast.

The first film of Taken saga was interesting and not complicated by a contorted plot. This movie doesn't' have a really plot and also the action scene aren't really fresh. In the first episode there was only a simple motivation that carry you into the entire movie. In this movie the motivation is forced and weak and doesn't thrill me. Acting is unnecessary and also Liam Neeson is tired. Scene actions are not realistic and Istanbul don't create a real appeal like Paris. Maggie Grace is not a child anymore and Famke Janssen is had difficulty with acting. Everyone in this time made a sequel but it is not a rule! I hop e Luc Besson understand this and will not realize an entire saga with 4 or more episode
