Taken 2 - a capsule review by Camilo Arenivar

This loses some of its originality considering we kind of know the kind of guy Liam Neeson is after what he did when they kidnapped his daughter. The story is kind of predictable, re-hashed and formulaic. While an overall entertaining film, in contrast with the other movies out right now, it's entertainment value and score is more or less diminished. Not a bad movie at all, there is just better out there. If you liked the first one, you will like this one. It just doesn't really stand out.
