Irish actor Liam Neeson returns to the big screen in Pierre Morel’s brutal, adrenaline-pumping action thriller, based on a script by Luc Besson and Robert Mark Kamen, who previously collaborated on The Transporter and its sequel.
Retired CIA agent Bryan Mills (Neeson) has always smothered his 17-year-old daughter Kim (Maggie Grace), hoping to protect her from the ills of the world.
When he eventually bows to pressure from ex-wife Lenore (Famke Janssen) and grants his daughter permission to visit Paris with best friend Amanda (Katie Cassidy), all of Bryan’s worst fears are confirmed.
Albanian thugs break into the girls’ city centre apartment midway through a telephone call to Kim and the doting father listens in horror as his little girl is dragged away to her doom.
‘I will look for you, I will find you and I will kill you!’ Bryan promises one of the abductors, who picks up Kim’s ‘phone.
‘Good luck,’ replies the man menacingly.
