Reviewer notes
Not recommendedTaken 3 tries to bring a fresh angle to the franchise, shifting from the usual "rescue mission" to a fugitive-style thriller, but it doesn’t quite hit the mark. The plot feels weaker compared to the first two, relying on predictable twists and a lack of real tension. The script struggles to connect the story in a meaningful way, making it feel more like an unnecessary sequel rather than a proper conclusion.…
Not recommendedI can handle the 47 cuts and shakey cam poorly trying to hide the fact that Liam Neeson can't run. I can handle the inevitability of "More money means more explosions!" in franchises like these. I can even contort myself to handle the right-out-the-gate fridging of one of my favourite actresses that _Taken 3_ copped so much flak for.…
RecommendedI was looking forward to this movie and I have to say that I was a wee bit disappointed. It is a decent enough action movie but the script leaves somewhat to be desired. A good chunk of the movie is quite good, actually it is very good, but there are some crucial scenes that, in my opinion, really drags it down to a rather mediocre level.…
RecommendedThe rugged and feisty Liam Neeson (as on-screen alter ego ex-CIA operative Bryan Mills) is back in fighting form for a third and supposedly final go-around in ‘Taken 3′. This tired and tepid action-packed crime thriller is directed by French filmmaker Olivier Megaton (‘Taken 2’, ‘Transporter 3’) with screenwriting credits attributed to ‘Taken’ producer Luc Besson and Robert Mark Kamen.…
RecommendedTrusted family reviewers> Independently a fine movie rather being associated with TAKEN. Actually, it was not a bad movie, I really enjoyed it. But associated with 'Taken' and being the third film in the series was the setback. Because unlike the first two films, this one was somewhat detached from the original theme. Except the cast from the previous two, the story takes place in a completely different platform.…
