My Response: After watching the trailer for this one, everyone should know two things: (1) don't f*ck with Liam Neeson or any fictional daughters he may have, and (2) see this movie so you know why you should not take any chances. Taken looks to be the best movie released since all the Oscar-contenders a while ago, so don't miss it.

My Response: Want to see Jason Statham kick some bad guy butt without much plot or character development? If yes, then this is the movie for you! And make that a double yes if you want a movie directed by the guy who may just be Optimus Prime's biggest enemy....I'm just sayin'. And look at the posters for the 3 Transporter movies:


If they couldn't even change the poster, how much different do you think the movie is?? Skip it.
