Taken 2 (2012)

Like its predecessor, Taken 2 is a repudiation of Hollywood's Total Action Film concept, which punctuates action with cartoonish humour.

In this Totally Serious Action flick, Liam Neeson kicks ass once again as once again, someone in his family is kidnapped. The gimmick? It's him.

I thought despite being a retread, the sequel had enough differences from the original to justify the price of a movie ticket.
