Not just another 'Bourne' December 30, 2008 Steven Lowther (Manchester, UK) 17 out of 24 found this review helpful
I was lucky enough to catch this film on Blu Ray recently, and I have to say it is the best film I have seen for quite some time. Neeson, whilst not an obvious choice for this type of film, is outstanding and captures the character effortlessly.
br /
br /There will naturally be comparisons to the Bourne trilogy, but in my opinion, this film blows them away with it's excellent story line, great action scenes and some brilliant acting.
br /
br /I've pre-ordered this, and I suggest you do the same. This film is a 'keeper'!
Excellent movie with german audio! March 24, 2009 Andreas Eickenberg 9 out of 13 found this review helpful
I'm not gonna say anything about the plot - I guess everyone knows already.
br /
br /Although it's mentioned nowhere on the package or here at Amazon, this Blu-Ray includes german language 5.1 DTS (a lot of germans buy at amazon.co.uk recently because of the weak pound).
Best BD of 2009!!! January 26, 2009 Mr. Ian Cornally (Ireland) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is without a doubt the best action movie i've seen in quite a while.
br /Neeson is excellent and as others have said , plays the part faultlessly.
br /All you Van Damme, Segal fans can avoid this movie , as Neeson puts those pretty boys to shame.
br /All the fight scenes are believable and realistic and with that DTS HD-MA soundtrack you can feel them too.:).
br /PQ is fantastic , only very very fine grain.
br /I saw this exclusively on rental BD over the weekend and will definately be adding this to my Blu Ray collection when it comes out.
br /10/10 for me.
Filled With Action And Pulse Pounding Moments. January 26, 2009 Ms. J. F. Gilby (bexhill, uk) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I rented this title on Blu-Ray as it has a brilliant picture and excellent sound. I was a little worried that this movie would be a massive disappointment, I have seen so many action movies and qutie a few have been duds lately. Didn't realise that I'm gonna to like this film so much! The plot is quite simple, a overprotctive retired cop (Liam Neeson) is worried about letting his daughter (Maggie Grace) go to Paris with her best friend while her mother and his ex-wife (Framke Janssen) dosen't seem bothered about it. But suddenly, she gets kidapped by out of country men selling young virgins to different countries. After hearing unnevering news from his best friend, he has 96 hours to find her or lose her forever. It's pulse pounding, heart-stopping action that dosen't leave you until the final reel but it's still around me now. Never have I enjoyed such a film like this in a long while after Vantage Point but this is something different. Neeson is excellent, I'm glad they chose him for the role as nobody else could do it like him. Janessen and Grace protray their roles well too, the latter showing a different light from many teenagers of today. It's highly recommended to anyone who likes gut-wrenching action, brilliant pefomances and a ending that leaves a smile on your face. A excellent movie that shall be in my collection of Blu-Rays very soon.
