Taken away

I almost missed a good movie because of the name, because the translated name is too different. The plot has nothing to say, that is, "Daughter is kidnapped, and I still have to rely on my dad." The invincible dad has gone through all kinds of dangers and killed countless people. Finally, he rescued his daughter and everyone was overjoyed. What else are we looking at? 1. Fighting I think the fighting in this film is very good, clean, one move to control the enemy, no mercy (reminds me of the content of a special forces fighting technique I bought back then), the rhythm and style are very similar. "The Bourne", but the editing is not as dazzling as "The Bourne", it makes people see clearly and very comfortable. The sound effects are also great, and I was shocked to hear it. 2. Rhythm If the rhythm of the film can be faster, I will consider a five-star. 3. The last scene of chasing the ship. Driving at night with high beams is too unqualified. . . . . Let me talk about the title "Taken". Although it is just a word, it expresses a lot of things. The protagonist and his wife are divorced, and the daughter is taken with the mother; the daughter is kidnapped, taken; to save the daughter, this is to take the daughter back, taken; to take the daughter to the singer’s house to realize the dream, is to take the daughter back in life , Taken. It's terrible, I plan to watch it again and then revise this film review.

(However, seven years have passed, and I haven't changed it, except for this sentence.)

    The best part is the lynching of Brian and the wounding of all irrelevant characters. I like this selfish treatment, as long as I can save my daughter and kill the whole world. It would be perfect if there was a small reversal after the rescue.

    Father as a mountain! Knowing that she would be able to rescue her unharmed daughter in the end, she was still stunned in the second half, but personally felt that the rhythm of the violent neighborhood was more consistent and compact. Other feelings: Crows in the world are generally dark, law and order are generally chaotic, and police are generally FB; there are too many bad people, and one less person will run out in the future; the posture of my daughter running is so funny, I watched it dangling; the translation of the film is really shit. It was a disaster film and almost missed it.

Taken quotes

  • Bryan: [to Marko, while preparing him for torture] You know, we used to outsource this kind of thing. But what we found was the countries we outsourced to had unreliable power grids. Very Third World. You'd turn on a switch - power wouldn't come on, and then tempers would get short. People would resort to pulling fingernails. Acid drips on bare skin. The whole exercise would become counterproductive. But here, the power's stable. Here, there's a nice even flow. Here, you can flip a switch and the power stays on all day. Where is she?

  • Kim: Where are we?

    Bryan: I told you. It's a surprise.

    [Sheerah opens the door]

    Sheerah: Hi.

    Bryan: Hi.

    [Kim stares at Sheerah, stunned to meet her face to face]

    Bryan: [chuckles] When someone says 'hi,' it's usually polite to say 'hi' back.

    Kim: H-Hi.
