Screenwriters Luc Besson (Bandidas) and Robert Mark Kamen (The Karate Kid) stylishly reprised the role that seems to have propelled Liam Neeson in to the legitimate realm, as a hardened action hero. With flawless and seemingly effortless execution, Neeson delivers exactly the performance that’s required of him as would-be retired CIA agent Bryan Mills, once again. Furthermore, it seems as though Director Olivier Megaton (Colombiana) took it a bit further this time around and creatively gave the role a gritty feel of even more brutality and mortal combat than the previous film. It is without a doubt, the close-quarters-combat is uncompromisingly nonstop and extremely exhilarating, in this follow up story. This is with the exception of a few backdrop sequences with Neeson’s character trying incessantly to be there as a father, for his “Kimmie,” (Maggie Grace – The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1). With a touch of ‘MacGyverism’ on display, professional badass Bryan Mills is kicking butt and taking names. He is primal in his convictions and dispatches tons of bad guys with any tool necessary. You will believe he can kill vampires with a broken wine glass, without pulling out any of his arsenal or weaponry.  READ FULL REVIEW
