They say Taken Part 2 is gonna happen
Unknown is essentially Taken2, but i'd love to see an actual sequel. Got to love seeing Neeson punching people on the neck.

no it isn't a sequal but Unknown is the age of case of Hollywood trying to bank of the success of Taken essentially using the same formula for a different flick. Sure Liam Neeson is playing a different character and there is a different "plot" but in the end its him drop kicken dudes until the credits roll.

Am I the only one who thinks the first one was not really that amazing?

I thought it was fairly hollow and the climax was the antithesis of a climax, that being the film equivalent of a poorly faked orgasm. Plus Liam Neeson is such a boring person to watch nowadays
First off, Unknown is NOT another Taken. I was very disappointed by the false advertising (trailer pegging the film as an action film), even though I expected it.
Secondly, Taken is easily one of the purest action films in the last five years and it's a film you either love or hate. It all depends on your taste for action films.

Taken was awesome.
Now with that said... No matter how much we want a sequel... It was good as is, and in my eyes it was an action formula that I think Hollywood, forgot how to shoot...
Taken is the Die Hard, Leathal Weapon for a new millennia... Without the pt. 2-stop it...
Thank you...

Taken was a decent film. I'm surprised they're doing a sequel, though. I'll check it out though.

The movie was decent and I enjoyed it enough for a single viewing, but I certainly didn't find it "amazing" and likely won't ever watch it again.

I'd ask why? But then I've seen trailers for Fast and Furious Five and Scream 4...
