Well, he could probably kick last season's jack bauers butt for sure. | | | |

I liked the movie, but I wish I hadn't selected the "Unrated Version" when I rented it...and he kept judo chopping people to the neck! Made me cringe every time. | | | |

What's the difference in the Unrated Version? I saw it in the theater, my wife has not.. if the Unrated Version available for rent is much worse, it'd be nice to know before we try and watch it together... | | | |

The unrated was good, all the torture and stuff. But I would not go as far as saying he would kick Jack Bauer or Chuck Norris butt. Even Jack in a coma might be too powerful for Liam Neeson. But Liam neesons nightmare would prob be Danboard, just because even jack or chuck run the other way when danboard walks down the street....

Just a lot of violence, I didn't watch the rated version for comparison (only rented it for one night), but I'm sure that it would have been just a bit tamer for my tastes. It's just that they never left the violent stuff to your imagination (cut away from the action when he does something particularly gruesome) and showed you every bit.
Still a great movie, but if your not a fan of over the top (yet realistic) violence you probably want to watch the rated version. | | | |

It was pretty violent, but not gory violence.
I don't remember any nudity, but there might of been a some when Liam Neeson was going through that place where all the girls were drugged up and he was opening up all the curtains. | | | |

When my 2 year old daughter grows up and wants to go ANYWHERE without supervision, I am going to sit her down and make her watch this movie.
Then I am going to say, Daddy is an Accountant, not a Spy.

I like Liam Neeson as an actor but this was a pretty typical dumb movie, IMO.
Liam Neeson in Kinsey from a few years back, was more interesting. | | | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
