After Taken became a surprise blockbuster, Taken 2 played it safe. Taken 2 is a pointless, derivative sequel without any of its predecessor’s grit. Taken pushed the boundaries of its PG-13 rating with brutal violence and nail-biting tension, but Taken 2 fits comfortably within those boundaries. By attempting to appeal to the broadest possible audie...
With a 59% score on Rotten Tomatoes, Taken wasn’t exactly universally praised by critics, but it was met with much more positive reviews than its sequels. Audiences received it more favorably, with a 7.8 rating on IMDb. The first Taken movie sees Mills’ daughter getting abducted by sex traffickers while vacationing in Paris. It wastes no time getti...
