Liam is getting $20 million.

Here's hoping it's better than Taken 2.

I always thought the title was referring to the audience.

Taken was awesome.

Looks like they're taking his freedom.

I hope there's a line where he says I DIDN'T KILL MY WIFE and the cop says I DONT CARE.

I eagerly await the franchise shot from the villains' POV, I hear it'll be called Given.

Miles better than Taken 2, but still not Taken.

This is The Fugitive except the fugitive is a major badass and has spec ops friends.

Forest Whitaker is the cop trying to catch Liam. His character is great. I could see them doing movies based on him. He's even got two gimmicks that the camera makes sure you see.

FAR less killing than the previous movies because most of this movie is Liam versus cops.

A thought I kept having while watching this film: "Dougray Scott was thisclose to being Wolverine."

Two criticisms though:
1. The ending is fucking ridiculous. Perhaps the most ridiculous ending in movie history. You don't get to do everything Liam did in the movie and then get that ending.
2. Maggie Grace needs a new agent. Someone explain to me why Famke Janssen keeps getting billed over Maggie. Maggie's roles have been MUCH bigger, yet she's not a "featured" performer?

I had a third criticism, but I can't remember it.

I will say there are two moments where Liam makes incredible escapes that will make you say "Oh fuck that."

It's worth seeing once on Netflix.
