I will find you? I WILL KILL YOU. - Rainbow & Star

?I don?t know who you are. I don?t know what you want. But if you don?t let my daughter go. I WILL FIND YOU. I WILL KILL YOU.?

That was may favorite line from the movie TAKEN.?:127:?Yesterday, I watched this movie with boyfriend.?:image13:?He, doesn?t go to work because he is sick.?:72:?He actually watched this movie but he want me to watch this.

The movie is about the undying love of the father (Liam Neeson)?to her daughter. They have a broken family. His wife already married to another man. But the good thing is, he can still see/bond with her daughter.?As the movie opens, the hero of the story, a divorced ex-CIA operative named Bryan Mills (Liam Neeson), is already paranoid about his 17-year old daughter, Kim (Maggie Grace) traveling to Paris for the first time with only one other friend, Amanda (Katie Cassidy ? Gossip Girl star & also starred in Monte Carlo). After initially refusing to sign consent for her to travel as a minor without parental supervision, he reluctantly agrees thinking that this may be his chance to bond with his estranged daughter since he has moved closer to her in L.A. although she has told more than a few lies to be able to slide past Bryan?s seemingly overbearing paranoid assumptions. Then, when she arrives in Paris and while on the phone with her, he overhears her being taken away by some group of men.

The initial introductions of Bryan attempting to reconnect with his daughter and his ex-wife, Lenore (Famke Janssen), who is now married to Stuart (Xander Berkeley) but still mad at him for sacrificing his family for his covert job are no doubt a little bit hokey. But the movie quickly shows that it means business once Neeson?s Bryan gives his ultimatum to a kidnapper on the phone he overhears, assuredly warning them that he will find and kill them with all the skills he has acquired. As he quickly hears from a spy analyst friend, Sam (Leland Orser) that the kidnapper is part of a sex trade trafficking mob, he finds he has only 96 hours to find his daughter or else she will likely never be found.

This movie is really a wonderful testament to just how good of an actor Liam Neeson is, I truly believe he is one of the best in Hollywood. ?Versatile, great character play, and just ultimately believable in most any role that he plays.

Even though I know that this is a movie that is meant to be fast paced, action-packed, and one heck of a thrilling ride, I also see the great underlying theme and motivation of the movie. ?In this case, it really is about a father?s love for his daughter. ?A story about how great that love can be, that bond between father and daughter, that it can border on simple focus and anger towards anyone who dares to hurt his daughter. ?I just have a soft spot for it.

This is, in my opinion one of the best action packed film I?ve ever seen for the last years. I also love Liam Neeson. I totally recommend this to parents who has teenager kids, especially high school to college students as well. Most of the time, we neglect some of the important reminders our parents is giving to us. Like ?Don?t talk to strangers.? ?Don?t go home late..? and more.
