Taken

This movie knows how to hit a father in the nuts. I can't think of another movie that makes me wish more pain be leveled on the enemy.

MoF was good but the hatekill trigger is much stronger in Taken.

I haven't heard of it but read the wiki after reading your question. I'm 3-4 years behind in watching movies.

I just watched it about 3 or 4 months ago. Real intense. Real good but real intense.

Ukrainians are civilized people, Albanians...not so much.

I watched MoF last night uninterrupted, start to finish. I realized that as many times as I'd watched that move, it was the first time I'd done so in one straight shot. Taken is still a mind fuck, but I now have to agree, Man on Fire is the better movie overall.

Taken was really good.
