Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Neeson, despite having turned 60 in June, looks spritely enough in the role, and more than capable of another go-round should Taken 2 match its predecessor's success.

rotten:
So lazily put together that it relies on flashbacks from its predecessor for the majority of its character development.

rotten:
Taken 2 is more of the same, except a little bigger, a little dumber, and a little less invigorating.
– James Berardinelli,

rotten:
A meta-American movie, a Godardian spoof of the whole genre, an attempt to see how stupid and insulting a motion picture can be and still be a big hit.

rotten:
A sloppy, lazy, unintentionally laughable sequel.
