'Taken'

[ApexJimi]

A great brain-oot romp

There's no PC-crap - he does whatever it takes.

A good film you can just watch again and again for a bit of "good" violence (means to an end). Bit of a modern day "Commando" kinda film in the way you watch it

I like the bit where he wires the chap up to the light socket

great film, you wouldnt want to mess with him. I remember seeing standing at a hotel bar in London a while back he must have been good 6 inches taller than everyone else. You could see a mass of people then this head towering over everyone.

I thought the bit were he shot the French guys wife in the arm was very reasonable As was the nails in the thighs of that Carlo?? was it?

The TV series? I noticed one channel was showing it the other night, but as I'd missed the first one I didn't bother with it.

Thank you!

I watched the original on a whim the other night so did a search to see what people thought.

I enjoyed it, so I watched 2, which was less good but still worth a watch so I've ordered 3.

Got round to watching it,held my attention so will give it a go.

Series on 5 USA is actually quite good in my opinion.

Oh, I might have a look at it then. Probably wait until they start again at the beginning. Does he do the speech? That's one of the best bits.
