What makes it different from others?

Please don't spend money on this.

It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

After my love of the previous 2 I'm afraid to say that i wasn't a big a fan of taken 3. I mean there were a few cool action driving scenes but apart from that it was quite dull. I thought the killing off one of the main characters was done very poorly. Brian showed little to no emotion over the death of his wife, which for me was very disappointing. Liam Neeson gives another awesome performance as Mills but for me i could tell he kind of looked bored throughout the movie. He didn't really give much else to Brian that he has already done; which for me was disappointing.Personally this film wasn't bad its just i would have liked to see more emotion towards the death of Lorrie. However the rest of the cast did a superb job for the roles they had.

If you thought Taken 2 was bad, try this one.The movie literally opens with the murder of a guy WE DON'T KNOW, committed by a guy WE DON'T KNOW. After that some shots of Mills settling into life, then stuff happens, and it's all really confusing.The real problem with this is the director has taken it too far. Some things are only good in small doses and Taken is one of them. How many times can you seriously do this? The only good part is Liam Neeson and even he looks tired of this. The reveal that the new boyfriend is the murderer seems forced, and the sniper guy doesn't even make sense, and his character seems forced and is completely pointless. You could have written him out of the story and it wouldn't make a difference. It's horrid.

OK, so I've read many of the reviews of this movie and wanted to put my view forward, as I feel it has taken (no pun intended) something of a bashing ! Basically, I found it to be a good, enjoyable action movie – so there were no Albanians, and no-one was taken – so what ??? Why are people so hung up on these points ? The return of most of the original characters was a big plus, a familiarity, and a new plot which was plausible, lots of action and Neeson doing what he does best, with the involvement and interaction of his special group. As for a poor sequel – go back through 50 years of the industry – what sequels are even as good as the original – Jaws, Star Wars, Rocky, First Blood, Die Hard to name but a few. Yet I still think we are left with an entertaining action movie, and if you are prepared to sit back and enjoy the fantasy, as all movies are, rather than sit there with a pen and paper trying to find any holes and irregularities, that you could find with any movie, then this is what it is all about. Maybe not a typical Taken movie in the same sense that the first 2 were, but none-the-less, entertainment, action, and for me, it hit the right note.

you're getting the point of view here from someone who have not seen the previous two movies, but just by the family guy spoof realized some of the trademark bits has been repeated. some of the camera work, for example when they were in the diner, made it appear as if they were under surveillance. but not just a third movie action piece, some really thoughtful and some moving family moments and intense dialogue between the two guys. the violence almost reminds of a video game and its kind of scary finding yourself grown quite used to it as it has increased in movies through the decades. the role reminds a bit of the classic dark passage.
