Taken Download Movies-----------------------------------------DOWNLOAD: http://urllio.com/r1hby -----------------------------------------Seventeen year-old Kim is the pride and joy of her father Bryan Mills. Bryan is a retired agent who left the Central Intelligence Agency to be near Kim in California. Kim lives with her mother Lenore and her wealthy stepfather Stuart. Kim manages to convince her reluctant father to allow her to travel to Paris with her friend Amanda. When the girls arrive in Paris they share a cab with a stranger named Peter, and Amanda lets it slip that they are alone in Paris. Using this information an Albanian gang of human traffickers kidnaps the girls. Kim barely has time to call her father and give him information. Her father gets to speak briefly to one of the kidnappers and he promises to kill the kidnappers if they do not let his daughter go free. The kidnapper wishes him "good luck," so Bryan Mills travels to Paris to search for his daughter and her friend.Former CIA agent Bryan Mills reluctantly agrees to let his 17 year old daughter Kim go to Paris on a trip. His ex-wife Lenore and her new husband Stuart are all for it and Kim sets off with a friend. On arrival in Paris however, Kim and her friend are kidnapped by mobsters running a slavery-prostitution ring. Bryan's only lead is a short snippet of a conversation from when Kim phoned him in a panic. With that, he's able to identify the origin of the speaker and which criminal gang he's with. Once in Paris, he quickly shows everyone connected with the case that he will stop at nothing to get his daughter back.Liam Neeson stars as an ex CIA operative that is forced to come out of retirement in order to find his daughter after she is kidnapped in Paris. I was excited by the previews and was hoping for a good action film that I could also relate to. I found it in this movie. I like to get personally involved and it didn't hurt that I was about the same age as the daughter when I saw the movie.
The first part of the movie, which I'm sure if you are watching because you want action, would probably be boring for the action junkie. I, however, liked it. It allowed me time to get to know the characters and the dynamics between the characters. For me, this makes the movie much more enjoyable. And for those action junkies, it didn't last long before the action started.
Liam plays the part of Brian Mills whose main goal is to rekindle his relationship with his teenage daughter. He was a workaholic who neglected his family and ruined his marriage but is determined to keep that one connection with his daughter Kim, played by Maggie Grace. I didn't feel she was the perfect fit for this role. She was too old to be playing a 17 year old girl. But, while an important role, it was still a small part in the film so it worked OK.
Kim wanted to spend the summer in Europe with her 19 year old friend. Liam (Brian) is not happy with the idea but was just beginning to develop a relationship with his daughter and didn't want to ruin it before it flourished, so he agreed. The first day in Paris they were kidnapped. The directors were excellent in the construction of the abduction scene. It was intense. The whole scene was set from the the daughter's perspective while she was on the phone with her dad. It really builds the suspense and sense of dread. The directors did an excellent job with setting up several of the scenes in this movie and it is their ingenuity as well as Liam's acting skills that make this movie great.
The abduction is where the action starts and it doesn't let up throughout the entire movie. Liam Neeson is perfectly cast in this role and proceeds to blaze a trail of blood, bodies and even a little torture in the process of finding his daughter. I also feel that Liam is a great talent and is underused by Hollywood.
The action scenes are staged well and highly entertaining. It also had good lighting. I hate watching movies when you are somewhat guessing at what is happening because the lighting is too dark. I pay good money to watch someone else's imagination at work. I don't want to have to use mine.
After talking to a few friends about their opinion on the movie, the only thing we agreed on is that Liam Neeson is great and that there is enough action to keep you entertained. One person felt it was morally questionable with all Europeans and middle easterners as bad and only Americans as good. Another person felt that it put women in a poor light without any control over their own lives i.e. kidnapped by men and saved by men. I felt it was a well-constructed action film where the directors used their imagination to make the scenes unique and suspenseful. I would see it again. In fact I already have.This review you're reading is the best summary/review a film can hope for.
'Just Go and see the Film'
Any more discussions about whether its this or that would spoil the experience. This IMDb minimum of 10 lines is forcing people to spoil the film, people who visit IMDb, is normally just people who wants to know whether a movie is worth watching. So all I'm saying here, is 'God damn it, stop reading this review and go watch it.
For those who are still reading, I registered with IMDb just so that I can write a review of this film. its Fan Fcuking Tastic. Emotion Gripping Edge of your seat. I found myself clinching my teeth in some moment. :)Taken's subject matter is too serious for an escapist chop-socky movie, and the sleazy, exploitative tone undercuts the thrills.Retired CIA operative Bryan Mills (Liam Neeson) reluctantly allows his 17-year-old daughter Kim (Maggie Grace) to fly to Paris with her girlfriend Amanda (Katie Cassidy). Not more than a few hours after landing in Paris, Kim and Amanda are kidnapped by Albanian sex-traders. Bryan immediately hops on a flight to Paris in order to track down his daughter, vowing to stop at nothing to get her back. Taken is an original script by French film-maker Luc Besson and American screenwriter Robert Mark Kamen. Two sequels followed: Taken 2 (2012) (2012) and Taken 3 (2014) (2015). When Marko (Arben Bajraktaraj) is being interrogated by Bryan, he says that Kim was a virgin and that they don't deal with virgins, so they sold her to a man named Patrice Saint-Clair because virgins fetch a very high price. St. Clair's client turns out to be a sheik (Nabil Massad) who has a penchant for deflowering young girls. Bryan reaches the quay just as the boat carrying his daughter leaves the dock. He steals a car and drives along the quay until he passes the boat, stops his car on a bridge, and jumps on deck as the boat passes under it. After fighting his way past almost a dozen guards and getting himself shot in the leg, he makes his way to a bedroom suite where he finds a fat sheik holding a knife to Kim's neck. The sheik starts to negotiate, but Bryan shoots him between the eyes. Kim starts to cry and rushes into her father's arms. In the next scene, Bryan and Kim are arriving at the Los Angeles Airport. They are greeted by a tearful Lenore (Famke Janssen) and her rich husband Stuart (Xander Berkeley). Lenore hugs Bryan in thanks, and Stuart offers him a ride with them, but Bryan decides to take a cab. In the final scene, Bryan takes Kim on a surprise visit to the house of pop singer Sheerah (Holly Valance), who invites Kim inside so that she can hear Kim sing and "see what [she] got." By the time anyone would have spoken up, if ever, Bryan was likely on his private jet winging his way back to Los Angeles. Once back in the States, the U.S. government isn't about to hand over one of their CIA operatives.Taken is most often compared to Commando (1985) (1985), in which a retired army commando will stop at nothing to find his kidnapped daughter, and to Man on Fire (2004) (2004), in which the ex-CIA operative bodyguard of a young girl searches relentlessly for her when she is kidnapped. If you're into South Korean cinema, you could check out Ajeossi (2010) (The Man from Nowhere) (2010), which is very similar to Taken in many aspects. There are three versions. The first is the international cut, released as an "Extended Cut" (unrated) on home media in the US, and as an "Extended Harder Cut" (with an "18" classification) on home media in the UK. The second is the UK cut, which is nearly identical to the international cut, with the sole exception of the torture scene (the clamps are attached to the chair in the UK cut; in the international cut, they're attached to spikes which are stabbed into the man's legs), which was cut to secure a "15" classification. This cut was shown in theaters in the UK. Finally, the third version is the US cut, edited by 2 or 3 minutes to receive a PG-13 rating in the US. This cut was shown in theaters in the US. There are three DVD releases in Region 1—(1) the Single-Disc Rental Exclusive, (2) the Single-Disc Extended Cut, and (3) the Two-Disc Digital Copy—and the Blu-ray release in Region A. In Region 2 / Region B, there are (1) the Extended Harder Cut DVD and (2) the Blu-ray disc. a5c7b9f00b https://www.causes.com/posts/4947314 https://www.causes.com/posts/4947315 https://www.causes.com/posts/4947316 http://www.gyvunupaieska.lt/en/news/view/id/275150 https://pastebin.com/2qgikKav http://cheekygirls.guildwork.com/forum/threads/5ba0da5e002aa82e15ab4f06-astro-movie-download-in-hd http://baipenslanssiti.simplesite.com/433978985/6627796/posting/full-contact-movie-in-hindi-dubbed-download http://hylywhitt.yolasite.com/resources/Forbidden-Planet-in-hindi-download.pdf https://www.causes.com/posts/4947313 http://www.www.new.animalfinder.lt/en/news/view/id/275147
