Mr E

Saw the trailer before The X-Files last night.
Knew nothing about it, but I really want to see it now - looks excellent.

Looked like Neeson was channelling his old Darkman persona too..... (great movie if you haven't seen it)

PullMyFinger!

3 mixed reviews on RT. There's some, erm, previews doing the rounds apparently. Ive just realised Maggie Grace of Lost is in this so I'll probably watch it regardless!

I hope you're a film reviewer or in the industry in some way and thats a legal screener young man?

Edit: Holly Valance is in this too! And Xander Berkeley of 24 fame. And Famke Janssen.

Mr E

Not a bad video, just remember to mute your laptop or turn off your speakers.

Excellent film and I would recommend it to all. Wasn't really a fan of Liam Neeson kinda thought of him as a bit of a drippy actor but he is fantastic in this. Edge of your seat stuff and action all the way.

Been looking forward to seeing it for awhile. I have it here but I'm holding off to see it in the cinema. The trailer is really good the the use of Ghinzu is inspired, somone reallys hould have them score a film.

MisterAnarchy

Saw it the other night and enjoyed it.
The plot is a bit basic and Neeson is very wooden but its a good adrenalin pumping 90 minutes.
I like that it wasnt toned down like most of the garbage action films prevalent nowadays.
It had balls.

PullMyFinger!

Ooooh its good. Its very, very good. Hopefully this will get the promotion it deserves and wont get lost like some of these smaller action films can.

Takes its cue from Bourne and dare I say I enjoyed it more than the Bourne Ultimatum. As said above the action scenes just go for it and the

shots to the head

look real for once Its Neeson's film as the rest are bit-players and he does an excellent job. Whoever said above that he's wooden needs to go back and look at the bit where

his daughter is under the bed and he knows she's going to be taken and he talks he through what she has to do, and the bit that follows with him talking to the perp.

A very solid 8/10.

that youtube link posted a french version of the clip

The Freeman

watched it yesterday, 4stars, its like bourne in retirement, good action and neeson is on form in this one, the version i got off the cousins in the states wasn't the best for the action sequences but ver watchable

Vic Vinegar

Good film this! Liam Nesson was on form, good action scenes.

Did anyone else think Maggie Grace seemed really really young in this film?

Deliverance XXV

I really really enjoyed this movie. I definitely recommend it.
Liam Neeson, I didn't think could really fulfill a role like the one in the movie but f*ck does he pull it off.

Definitely my favourite movie of the year so far.

Mehh

Just watched it and it's a good flick. Liam Neeson's character is a serious bad ass If you're looking for a bit of mindless violence to help you unwind for an evening, then this'll hit the spot

Creature

Not exactly the most original film ever but very entertaining nonetheless. It was strange seeing Liam Neeson as the invincible Bond type action hero but he pulled it off well. Especially in the scene where he had the guy tied to the chair, he came off as someone who was willing to do absolutely anything.

Yep, kept me nicely entertained for 90 minutes.
I'd definitely recommend it, just don't expect anything mindblowing!

Went to see this on Saturday and it was quality. Good story line. Thought Neeson was excellent in a toned down bad ass kinda way. The action was believable unlike other **** that has been released lately (I'm looking at you 'Wanted').

Well worth seeing.

Saw the trailer last night and it does look like a very good thriller alright - very tightly edited and atmospheric trailer anyway. Looking forward to it.
