Taken


Taken is a 2008 English action, crime and thriller film about a retired CIA agent who travels across Europe and relies on his old skills to save and track down his separated daughter from him, who has been kidnapped by human traffickers for sexual slavery while on a trip to Paris.


Seventeen year-old Kim is the pride and joy of her father Bryan Mills. Kim manages to convince her reluctant father to allow her to travel to Paris with her friend Amanda. When the girls arrive in Paris they share a cab with a stranger named Peter, and Amanda unknowingly let him know that they are alone in Paris. Using this information an Albanian gang of human traffickers kidnaps the girls. Kim barely has time to call her father and give him information. Her father gets to speak briefly to one of the kidnappers and he promises to kill the kidnappers if they do not let his daughter go free. The kidnapper wishes him "good luck," so Bryan travels to Paris to search for his daughter and her friend. Will he be able to save his daughter and her friend?
This is a fast pace moving film that will stay in your memory forever. Besides the action scenes there are also some scenes that are quite sensitive and touching. This film will not disappoint you and is highly recommended for all viewers.
