Maggie Grace arrives in Paris for a holiday when, unluckily, she is kidnapped by Albanians to be sold to the highest bidder. Luckily her father, Liam Neeson, happens to be an ex-spy who quickly arrives in France seeking vengeance. Violence and death quickly follow.
This is a story (co-written by Luc Besson) so simplistic it lacks even a love interest for Liam Neeson, which is good. It is the basic, no thought, excuse for pain and bloodshed you expect to see from Steven Seagal or Jean Claude van Damme, not an actor the calibre of Neeson. It’s not a bad film, it’s just that Neeson is too good for it.
