The first one would probably have been a forgettable film if it had someone like Colin Farrell or something in it. It was formulaic, predictable and the story was simple. However having Liam Neeson kicking the st out of everybody he sees in very efficient, realistic looking fight scenes really made the film and I loved it. The most important thing was that it had pace and was entertaining. If a film has those two qualities, that is all it needs as far as I'm concerned.

Agreed, it was a surprise to see Neeson in an out-and-out action role.

In fact, the original films success was a surprise to Neeson himself - fast forward to 1m 15s: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vtWnlnvRm-k
