Taken (2008) #39 of 50

Show Notes This week we watched Liam Neeson pick up his mantle of action hero in 2008s Taken. It’s surprisingly paced and full of short effective fights that make up a satisfying action movie. Maggie Grace is a believable, if too resilient teen, and Famke Jansen is a terrible co-parent, rounding out a typical American family facing a sex-trafficking threat. Good thing he’s honed those skills.   Recommendations: A Christmas Carol (the Muppets one on Disney + [and go the the special features to watch the full heartbreaking version] and the George C. Scott one on Paramount =); Rankin Bass Christmas specials which you should just by on physical media.   Next up: Devil (2010)     Email us at [email protected] Find Amity @ www.amityarmstrong.com Our Facebook group is here for those who consent: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1754020081574479/
