Liam calls it in.
I've just watched one of the worst films I've seen in years. I probably shouldn't even admit that I would waste several hours watching anything is worthless as Taken 3, but I did. The good news is when you're watching poorly-directed trash like this, you can muse about other things. Like: Would Liam Neeson ever land high-salaried drek like this if, at 63, he hadn't kept a full head of hair. Or: How do directors as mediocre as Olivier Megaton get to helm million dollar projects like this, even if they are crap? Or does it even make sense that a man, to find the killer of his wife. will endanger hundreds of people on the L.A. Freeway, destroy several buildings, create a panic at a college that could have left students trampled, destroy lots of private property, beat the hell out of cops just doing their job, demolish a two million dollar aircraft and possibly killing the pilots, and never face any kind of arrest at the end? Or: When did all the mediocre directors get together and decide that you have to change the screen image at a headache-causing every three seconds to keep up the momentum which was never there in the first place? What's the point of bitching about it. Rotten serials like Taken 3 will be made again and again, and probably rake in lots money from willing morons or moviegoers like me who actually liked the first Taken. What I found most amusing about the entire experience is that at the end of the film, the first credit to be seen was: Directed by Olivier Megaton. So I guess he didn't realize that this piece of shit was something to be embarrassed about. On the other hand Megaton sounds like a pseudonym, so maybe he did.
