Liam Neeson, another gun-control loving liberal-hypocrite… nothing new here…

3 Comments

I don’t understand Hollywood. There are too many action stars who are totally anti-gun, yet, they star in a bunch of movies with them holding guns. Anti-gun stars such as George Clooney, Sean Penn, Sly Stallone, Arnold, Kevin Bacon and the list goes on.

Now you can add Liam Neeson to the growing anti-gun hypocrite list.

These guys are totally against guns yet they get paid millions to star in movies holding guns and running around with them???

All these actors maybe talented people but if they are against guns, then they shouldn’t star in movies with guns. Yes, I know real-life and fiction are separate but still it makes them look like hypocrites.

Jim Carrey may have been on the anti-gun bandwagon but at least he had the balls to apologize to gun owners in America. At least Jim Carrey never starred in movies with guns. Jim Carrey maybe 100% anti-gun but at least he doesn’t make himself look like a hypocrite. I haven’t seen a single movie with Carrey with a gun in his hand from what I remember, correct me if I’m wrong. So Jim still gets my respect, I guess.

Report: Liam Neeson hints at a “Taken” sequel…

Leave a comment

Actor, Liam Neeson, is the first to drop the big news that there are plans for a “Taken” sequel. “Taken” is a James Bond/Jason Bourne like action flick which is about a father out to rescue his kidnapped daughter from gangs himself. The film was written by Luc Besson and directed by Pierre Morel. Liam says to MTV that he is in talks with Luc Besson to discuss ideas and the plot for a possible sequel.

More on it here:

While I did love the movie, “Taken”, it was a very entertaining film, I hope the next one will be longer. The first “Taken” was too short. I wanted more. Liam Neeson makes a badass action hero. I kind of had a feeling there is going to be a sequel to this film ever since the first one came out.

Who will get kidnapped in the second movie? I hope they don’t do a kidnapped girl again ’cause that would be boring. I think it would be an interesting plot if Bryan Mills (Liam’s character) gets kidnapped himself and he has to find out a way to escape from the badguys. It would be the same gangs from the first one out to seek revenge on him. Start right off from the last one. Anyhow, can’t wait to see what the real plot will be! I hope it’ll be something different!

Liam Neeson’s “Taken” out on DVD/Blu Ray NOW!!!

Leave a comment

Liam Neeson’s excellent action flick, “Taken” is out on DVD/Blu Ray today. I think I’m going to go grab a copy of the DVD from Kmart after work tonight. This is a really good action movie and I would suggest you buy or rent this movie too.

Over mother’s day weekend, I picked up a brand new home theater system, a Samsung brand, which sounds really amazing. I officially have my own home theater. Flat screen 32″ LCD TV, and a home theater surround sound. It almost makes me never want to go to the theaters at the mall and just wait for all the movies to come out on DVD now, I don’t know yet.

The home theater surround sound is much louder than the movie theaters at the malls. When you watch action movies, it makes the gun shots and explosion scenes so loud, you can feel the floor vibrate, it’s fuckin’ awesome!

I can’t wait to watch “Taken” on my new surround sound system.

Why didn’t I start a Blu Ray collection yet? I don’t think I ever will. I think I’m going to stick with DVD. There really is no difference between the two anyway. Blu Ray just makes the sound and picture a little bit better, that’s all. I’ll start a Blu Ray collection when the prices go down and when DVD stops selling in the market for good which this won’t happen for a really long while.

Report: Liam Neeson’s “Taken” destroys box office Friday opening day…

Leave a comment

As expected, Liam Neeson’s “Taken” is so far ahead in the box office opening, scoring a whopping 9.5 million. It’s no surprise. Liam Neeson is a legendary veteran actor who barely ever stars in leading roles. Most of his roles are supporting roles or small roles. I expect this film to make a little over 30 million tomorrow. The movie will be a hit. It’s a badass film. It’s great, check it out if you haven’t yet. You’ll have fun.

Film Review: Taken

Leave a comment

 

Starring: Liam Neeson, Famke Janssen

Directed by: Pierre Moral

So I just got back from seeing the movie “Taken” this afternoon and here is my review.

Plot/synopsis: Liam Neeson stars as a single father and divorced man named Bryan Mills, he is also a retired government operative. The movie begins as a happy family film where Bryan goes to his daughter’s Kim’s birthday party to celebrate her 17th birthday. She wanted to become a famous singer which is her dream, so Bryan does his best to help make her dream come true by getting help from a famous pop star who Bryan becomes friends with.

Kim and Bryan’s ex-wife reveals to him that Kim wants to take a vacation to Paris, France. Bryan later learns that Kim is not just going to Paris, she is travelling all over Europe so she can follow the European tour of her favorite band U2. When Bryan finally allows her to go to Paris, Kim is kidnapped by gangsters as soon as she arrives there.

This angers Bryan so much that he can’t help himself but go out and find his daughter himself and kill the men who took her. Bryan is all about revenge in this movie.

Jason Bourne. James Bond. MOVE OVER!!!! We have a new action hero on the way. He is Liam Neeson. You love movies with intense violence and non stop action all the way through? Go see this! This movie will seriously kick your ass!!! Liam Neeson is not much of an action movie man because he mostly done dramas and serious films over the years. Liam is fuckin’ bad ass in this film!!

Lots of brutal fist fight scenes and incredible car chases that will take you at the edge of your seat the entire time!!! Liam’s acting in this film is so awesome in this film. I wish the film could be longer. I felt the film went by too quick and was a short movie, 90 minutes full of violence and thrills.

The writing was good, cinematography was good, scoring of the music was good, stunts were good, etc. Just a great movie all around. I think it’s one of the best new action movies in a long time. Honestly though, I can definitely see Sly Stallone starring in a movie like this, it would have been a perfect film for Sly. Liam still did a great job though.

Go see this, if you like edge of your seat action flicks, this film will send chills down your spine, trust me!!!

Score for “Taken” = **** (4 stars as in “Excellent”)

I will see the movie “Taken” next…

Leave a comment

I will see the action thriller “Taken” that stars Liam Neeson, a film about a former government operative who goes out to find his kidnapped daughter himself and seek revenge on her kidnapper. It looks like a pretty sweet flick, very short movie, it’s only an hour and a half long but I’m sure the flick will be entertaining. I like Liam Neeson and this guy don’t star in leading roles that much. I plan to see this movie tomorrow afternoon and will review it tomorrow evening. I hope it’s good and doesn’t dissapoint.
