User Reviews

A movie everyone should watch, action packed and great storyline

This movie has to be in the top 10/top 20 greatest action movies ever made.

A dramatic representation of every parent’s fantasy when they say they would do anything to protect their kid. Liam is great. Kid runs weird

Eve of your seat action the entire way through. Liam Neeson really paints this character like no other.

Good action movie. Violent and very dark.

Taken offers a glimpse into the dark world of human trafficking, as well as the surprisingly menacing threat of "some girl's dad."
