I will have to say that I thought "Taken" was a pretty good action flick. Once it get's going, just about 15-20 minutes into the film, the action becomes fast paced and non-stop all the way to the end.
Liam Neeson does a good job here playing the tough ex-operative. Almost everything is believable. Although, there are some minor points where plausibility is lost. Certain aspects of the film are almost too convenient as well as rushed. That's the worst I can say here.
All in all, the film keeps you on the edge of your seat and doesn't let you down for a second. That being said, there is some room for improvement, but a pretty good film over all.
I don't know if I would say that it tops the Bourne films. That's a gray area for me. What I can say is that most will enjoy it and will not be disappointed.
