TAKEN

by. Jina



Hi, have you ever seen the movie “TAKEN”? It is an action movie. It has a two volume. Taken 1 and Taken 2. Taken 2 was released at October 5th. Many people expected the movie, because the Taken 1 was really good action movie. However, contrary to expectation, Taken2 was not so good as much as taken 1. I watched taken1 when I was in Korea, and a few weeks ago I watched taken 2 in America. Also, I disappointed at this movie a little.

Let me introduce this movie. Taken1 was released in 2008. The director is Pierre Morel, and the leading actor is Liam Neeson, who acts a father (Brian) and Maggie Grace, who acts a daughter (kim). The storyline is that the family goes to Paris for vacation trip, but, in there, the daughter kidnapped by some guy and her father save her daughter from danger, because Brian was a former CIA agent, he uses various actions.

Taken2 has almost same storyline. However, the director is different. The director of Taken2 is Olivier Megaton. In this movie, Kim was very weak daughter in taken1, but in Taken2, she is very strong, so she could help her father to save her family from danger.

Although, Taken2 is not as much interesting as Taken1, I recommend this movie to watch. Maybe some of you have already seen this movie. Moreover, you can not understand the whole contents in English, though, it is very nice experience for you to watch a English movie without subtitle in the theater.

  3. Though I haven’t watched any movie recently,I am interested in the movie TAKEN after reading your introduction.I googled it in order to find more details about these two movies.In my opinion,the movie which was released later often as not good as the former one in a serious storyline of movies because an audience may show higher expectation when he considered that the former one was good.
