What to Know

Critics Consensus

Hampered by toothless PG-13 action sequences, incoherent direction, and a hackneyed plot, Taken 3 serves as a clear signal that it's well past time to retire this franchise.

Ben Sachs Chicago Reader Jan 16, 2015
Forest Whitaker turns in one of his sleepiest performances; no one else seems to be trying very hard either, yet director Olivier Megaton delivers some good chases, fist fights, and shots of Neeson looking glum. Go to Full Review Wesley Morris Grantland Jan 16, 2015
A movie that thinks the way to earn our knuckle-biting is to be as dull as hell for 35 minutes, then send a giant shipping container hurtling along the interstate. But you yawn through that, too. Go to Full Review Philippa Hawker The Age (Australia) Jan 16, 2015
2/5
There's something sluggishly formulaic about the rollout of smackdowns, chase scenes and general mayhem involving wrecked cars. And a plot point involving warm bagels is downright ludicrous. Go to Full Review Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies Aug 25, 2022
2.5/5
The good news is “Taken 3” is better than the last film, but not by a wide margin. Go to Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review Jul 13, 2022

The movie spends more time on silly and predictable plot twists than relishing the minor joy of watching this actor kick butt. Go to Full Review Richard Crouse Richard Crouse Feb 2, 2021

We don't go to the Taken movies to see great art, we go to have a good time at the movies. Unfortunately, this time around, that pleasure has been "taken" from us. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Robbie Rob May 18, 2024 Liam Neeson rocks. Another typical Taken movie......with lots of action, good effects, and revenge killing. See more Michelle'sMovieMoment!

Es una hazaña verdaderamente remarcable lo que se logró con la trilogía de "Taken". Partiendo de una primera entrega concebida como una historia sumamente autoconclusiva y redonda, la franquicia consiguió expandirse en dos secuelas que, lejos de sentirse forzadas o artificiales, encontraron la manera de construir historias orgánicas, concisas y ridículamente entretenidas. El talón de Aquiles de la saga —y de esta tercera entrega en particular— vuelve a ser la realización de las escenas de acción: esa edición hiperactiva, repleta de cortes bruscos y cámara rápida, le resta dinamismo visual a los combates y puede resultar aburrida o caótica de contemplar. Sin embargo, el ritmo inmejorable y la construcción de un suspenso formidable compensan con creces esas falencias técnicas.

The editing could have use more work and story isn't very original seeing how rather similar it was to the fugitive. Still, I enjoyed it mainly because we see more interaction with Bryan's Friends and his daughter. Action still cool despite some editing problems, acting still great from everyone, and the story while unoriginal, was still enjoyable enough to kept me watching. See more Read all reviews
