SYNOPSIS 'You can run, but you can't hide' Liam Neeson, stars as Bryan, a man with a hidden past(he's an ex CIA Agent)whose seventeen year daughter Grace goes on vacation with her friend Amanda, to visit Amanda's cousin in Paris. Shortly after she arrives there, she and Amanda are kidnapped by slave masters. Neeson hears the kidnapping whilst he's on the telephone to her and begins to talk her through it until she's snatched. He tells the kidnappers that he has a particular set of skills that will prove to be a nightmare for the abductors and that he will hunt them down by whatever means possible and kill them.
Cast: Liam Neeson, Maggie Grace, Famke Janssen, Xander Berkeley, Katie Cassidy, Olivier Rabourdin, Leland Orser, Jon Gries, David Warshofsky, Holly Valance, Nathan Rippy, Camille Japy, Nicolas Giraud. Director: Pierre Morel Running Time: 94 mins Certificate 15 Just got back from seeing this film (had free tix for a preview screening) and OMG I loved it! I thought it would be good, and I was right. Set in America and Paris but predominantly Paris, it's pretty much non-stop action and *lots* of violence ;D Can't see it appealing to everyone - chick flick lovers may wanna give it a miss LOL ;D - but it was most deffo my sort of film! Fantastic! Highly recommended if you like that sort of thing.

I've got to see this movie. I don't think I've seen or read a bad review.
I've heard some of the killings are quite ingenious and blood thirsty ;D

its a very intense film, edge of your seat , never lets up type of film i wouldn't say its ingenious in its killings BUT its brutal in parts. but the film builds and builds you want it to be brutal / unforgiving not in a sadistic way but given the subject matter and the build up, you don't feel any sympathy for the "Bad Guys" however they get it , you want them to get it! enough action to keep action fans happy BUT enough plot to keep thriller fans happy....
