Review: ‘Taken 2’ tries too hard

Jonathan Garcia / Staff writer “Taken 2” is the sequel to 2009’s “Taken,” starring Liam Neeson, Maggie Grace, Famke Janssen, and Rade Sherbediga. The film is directed by Olivier Megaton, and written by the writers of the first movie – Luc Besson and Robert Mark Kamen. The first movie was a fan favorite and propelled Liam Neeson to action star status.
