Apparently, Liam Neeson's salary was almost half the budget, and frankly I don't see any other reason to make this other than the money. He seems rather bored, and how couldn't he be when both the plot and the action are so formulaic? Forest Whitaker is pretty good, and the little character detail with the rubber band was a nice touch. Drinking game suggestion: take a shot whenever Mills saves himself or his daughter by doing something that in the real world would have endangered them even more.

Acting is sub par. I feel like I don’t want to watch a Liam Neeson movie ever again. Soundtrack is poorly timed and often unnecessary. It just sucks

Wow...The first 45 minutes or so is actually kind of ok with setting things up. It seems like it's another The Fugitive/Hitchcock wrong man accused plot for better or for worse. Not sure why it's called "Taken" though. You can still have a sequel without the 3. But regardless....nothing prepares you for the next hour of just incoherent, insanely fast, convuluted beyond belief plot involving Russians, betrayals of friends we've seen and never seen before but the film acts like we know all these people and that's only from the parts I could decipher.I'm sure there is a triple cross in there somewhere too because I had genuinely no idea what in the right mind was going on. And I swear I paid attention the whole way. It just bombards you with tons of action, shotouts, car chases, and than plot expose twists moments for minor repreives before going back to the nonsense. The editing is terrible, horrific pacing, generic music, and subpar cinematography and direction. It just isn't clear at all what is happening in the second half. The acting is alright I guess just watching Nesson kill dudes and beat them up but it's stronger in the first half when there's actual attempts at normal human interactions. The whole ppregnancy thing is completely pointless too. Shame they killed Famke because she is probably the best thing like in the pervious. Skip This. Terrible end to the trilogy. Completely unneeded and worst one by two miles at least.

Taken 3 tries to bring a fresh angle to the franchise, shifting from the usual "rescue mission" to a fugitive-style thriller, but it doesn’t quite hit the mark. The plot feels weaker compared to the first two, relying on predictable twists and a lack of real tension. The script struggles to connect the story in a meaningful way, making it feel more like an unnecessary sequel rather than a proper conclusion. The directing leans heavily on fast cuts and shaky action sequences, which at times make the movie feel more chaotic than intense. Some moments work, but others feel like they’re just going through the motions. Liam Neeson still delivers a solid performance, carrying the movie with his usual presence, but the supporting cast doesn’t add much to elevate the film. The cinematography is serviceable but doesn’t stand out, with action scenes suffering from over-editing that makes it hard to follow. The score is decent but doesn’t bring anything memorable to the experience. While there are some enjoyable moments, the movie lacks the tight execution of the first Taken and ends up feeling like a forgettable entry in the trilogy. Watchable, but nothing special.

Liam doesn't have the particular set of skills to save this movie.

O último da trilogia, a mesma receita de bolo dos anteriores, porém desprovido da parte dramática do primeiro, embora caprichem na trilha sonora para tetar nos emocionar, mas não funcionou tão bem quanto nos anteriores, mas como os padrões anteriores, roteiro inteligente, boas cenas de ação e perseguição, trama bem amarradinha, merece o sucesso que obteve… Ação, perseguição, emoção, bom filme...

Decent MMA skills, but Liam Neeson was clearly lacking in grappling technique. From experience, I can tell that the kidnapping scene was very unrealistic. By the way, I did not watch the movie.

Es buena pero sin duda decae mucho, está entretenida pero aburrida, me gustó que al final era Stuart la mente detrás de todo.

Personally, I felt like this was the best out of Taken trilogy. It was the most fun, but it could have benefited from not having to adhere to the rules of being PG-13.

It was quite better than Taken 2, I liked it 👍

- Chaotic story - Ageing lead - Stroke inducing editing Overall a good movie to watch on 2x speed

Great film better than the second one worse than the first one big plot twist 🤯

Don't listen to the critics!! This film is suspenseful and action packed! Action packed till the end. Always wondered how he was going to get out of it. Much was in some ways predictable, it was the details that made it exciting. Ending was sweet.

Liam Neeson rocks. Another typical Taken movie......with lots of action, good effects, and revenge killing.

Taken 3 has taken everything the first two movies did and turned it into a pizza left out in the sun for three days. There are so many things wrong with this movie. The plot was crummy, the editing was atrocious, the acting felt off, the pacing was longer than needed, the CGI was laughable, and the cinematography was too bright, to the point where my eyes began to suffer.

IMO - the best of the three Takens - overall good action

I wanted to like this more. Calling this a thriler is ballsey. They rfeally didn't need to make a third. The sad thing is if Liam lives long enough they will probably do a 4th in a few years...

The very poorly-edited Taken 3 squanders the potential of the franchise, abandoning its original premise in favour of a contrived and convoluted plot, leading to a disjointed and unsatisfying narrative that fails to deliver the thrilling action and emotional depth that made the first film a standout in the genre.

What gets "taken" in this movie? A life? His freedom? How about the time I took to watch it. Ever seen The Fugitive? If so… You've already seen a much better version of Taken 3 so don't bother with this one.

the first two are better films…..
