This is an incredibly talented cast running with an incredibly ordinary script resulting in something that should be intolerable turned into something that is entertaining. The movie would have been more enjoyable focusing on the back stories of its characters rather than the unlikely situation of a crime boss taking vengeance.

I never buy Liam Neeson as an action hero. I look at his work in these roles as similarly unbelievable as Travolta or Cage in these roles.

Well, they are certainly trying to force Liam Neeson as THE action leading man.

I don't doubt he was a tough guy growing up and he is pretty big. However, he is 63 and never looked like he had the kind of speed to be an action guy, like we have seen.

You know it's a man's world when 63 year old males can take the lead in action movies and 40 year old women are reduced to playing mother in laws.
