i was positively bursting for a pee but it was either bathroom or phone...the phone won and i wet myself. no regrets.
I've been there! If they had a sign saying which color ticket was at which end of the tables it would be better.
I ran out just before the end, ran back in again as I forgot my coat, got downstairs and got the phone in a minute luckily
preferred locations Shepherds Bush, Westfield, Notting Hill, Central London, Wimbledon, Islington, Wandsworth thanks

As chaotic as it was, it didn't take us longer than 5 or 7 minutes tops to get our phones back.

f**k this movie and f**k Luc Besson. Should have just called it Taken 2: Your money, suckers.
http://londonfilmfanatiq.com/2012/09/23/taken-2/102 Different free films seen in 2010 plus 2 repeat viewings and a few tv show screenings... not too shabby. Thanks to everyone for their contributions here.

I've just realised that IMDB gave this film an 8.7. What the f......????
How exactly do they score films? By their making, Taken 2 is better than Aliens, The Green Mile, & level with Forrest Gump & Se7en.

Taken 2 is not released yet, people are voting without having seen the film; this reflect how anticipated the film is; that should fall deeply when Taken 2 opens.
Rotten Tomatoes is actually more interesting in this regard as it has both score and anticipation score

Didn't see the preview. Based on comments, disappointed to know it's no way as good as the original. Will probably wait for the DVD then :)

I don't know what the fuss is all about... in terms of it being awful etc. I actually quite enjoyed it. I left my brain at the door and even found myself squirming a little bit at some of those oh so tense moments that you knew the outcome of anyway before it happened.
It was very predictable but none the less I did enjoy it and Liam Neeson can re-teach me how to drive any day!
