Imagine a nation with only 3 FBI agents and a city with only 1 cop. You'd think there would be worse crime there than this script, but you'd be wrong.

The ridiculous stretches made in this screenplay suck all of the fun that could possibly be had in this predictable yet stupid outing.

@saint-pauly To be honest I think you've seen too many of the traditional movies, where somebody gets shot or something happens and there are 4 police cars after 20 seconds... This is more realistic than those movies from this aspect.

@arcelivez Possible... Try this: Google 'police on the scene' and let me know if your image search shows as many cop cars as mine does. I live in a city and, if there's an emergency, I **definitely** see more than one cruiser speeding past. :person_shrugging_tone2:

@saint-pauly good for you. But the point was that they are not there in 20 seconds. Clearly with luck that can happen if there was somebody going by, but it's random. Plus as you say, it also depends on the crime level in the city how much police is cruising randomly around or whether they are deployed on other things, etc.<br /> <br /> But in most movies you see that the police is instantly there if something happens and that is clearly more unrealistic than what we've seen here.

@arcelivez Good for you (?) Look, if you want to look on this movie as a documentary, that's your right, but in my 57 years, after living in 2 countries and 11 US States, this movie doesn't reflect my experiences and no amount of insistence on your part will make me believe I haven't what I have seen with my own eyes.

If you love Arsene Lupin, there is a chance that you enjoy this another timekiller movie. . There are a few gaps in the scenario but it is ok, just watch and pass without expecting any robbery scenes or exaggerated action moments. Liam is Liam as always, nothing more nothing less. 6/10

Liam Neeson is 68 years old. And just got out of the military 9 years ago in this movie? And fell out of a second story. And I have already seen this movie. If it were titled _Reverse Taken_.

It's a mindless action film. Nothing overly bad to warrant not watching it, but nothing really stands out to warrant watching it.

Typical Liam Neeson movie.

Decent afternoon watch if it's your thing.

If you miss it you won't be missing much

I don't think it was bad, but just not very good either. Liam's romance seemed a bit forced, and I preferred his Dad role in Taken. The storyline of agents-gone-rogue (chasing $) as the bad guys hunting our 'good guys' has been done many times before. It just wasn't that interesting to see, and so I stopped watching before halfway. You might like it more however. That probably depends on how big of a Liam Neeson fan you are, or how many agents-gone-rogue TV/movies you've seen already.

Wow! I have a fault that I need to see a movie till the end if I started it. But this is just so terrible that I had to stop. Liam is as expected, but most other actors do a terrible job. If it's the script or their fault doesn't matter in the end to me. Terrible terrible movie.

There was 0 chemistry between any of the characters, and it felt like each person was talking at the other characters, not to them. Not horrible for a mindless action film if there were only more action.

Pro: One more movie with Liam Neeson as "the action hero"

Con: One more movie with Liam Neeson as "the action hero". And it's a late one, with a silly plot.

A pretty generic if slightly lazy action-revenge piece. It's got some good tension. It flows well. You watch a lot of cheap movies that look terrible. This at least looks good. There's a clear narrative. This is an excellent no-think option for movie night or not changing the channel while you're cleaning the house. It's basically everything you expect and surprisingly PG-13. It didn't feel like they tried hard to keep it PG-13 like Sony's Venom movies.

Really? You just gonna say "Your partner gave that tape to me" to a maniac? Anyone in their right mind would know, that maniac would immediately try to kill his partner after hearing that.

For giving you solid evidence, i can't believe Tom snitched on Anthony like that!

That's the one thing that bothered me. Other than that, it's a fairly good one. Intense movie.

@bonebag yeah, that also bothered me, thanks for the comment! At least Tom wasn't aware of John's second gun but nonetheless he shouldn't have snitched on Anthony. And I also minded that not even Anthony had a bulletproof vest. He knew what his partner was capable of...<br /> <br /> Anyway, I guess it doesn't make sense to analyze this movie in the first place but that part was too annoying without even really thinking about it.

Having given the plot some thought, I still think that trying to come clean when no one knows who the in and out robber is makes no sense whatsoever.
Tom is just too good to be true!

Typical Liam Neeson movie, bad. Maybe a 5/10 if I'm being generous. Should've known though.

Liam Neeson just stole 90 minutes of my life! This is average at best, and a waste of his talents.

I was expecting the typical Neeson actioner. Forgettable but enjoyable. But this is by far the weakest Neeson actioner ever, with a scenario only an idiot who has never seen an action movie would greenlit. Complete waste of time, don;t bother, even if you like Neeson actioners

This man is going down hill.
Not too picky what movies he's in anymore. Going the way of Stevie Segal and John Wick. First couple movies great. Now suck maximus. In for the money only I guess. Quality no longer a factor.

A bit to cliche and not enough true to life. But it's Liam Needing so it was good anyway. Really the casting was the best part of the film.

Yet again, Liam Neeson is definitely not Brian Mills, in definitely not another Taken retread.
