Brilliant
A real action film with a believable story which made the difference; you felt for all those concerned.
Liam Neeson was great and was born for the part; from the moment it started, your pulse quickened getting faster until the climax.
Not just a blokey film, as there were many couples in the cinema who also thought it great.
You can tell when a film is good by the reaction of the audience afterwards, and everyone was excitedly talking about it.
RECOMMENDED-
A must see!!
You will be disappointed if you wait till it comes out on dvd the big screen makes the difference i think.
even the wife enjoyed it
Confirmed i have better taste than her in doors.
