Also disappointing to read this... hope it doesn't take away from the action.
I quite enjoyed Taken 1 and thought the action was quite good.

Looking at the BBFC site with regards to rating, its strange how one of the trailers is actually rated 15. Does this contain one of the cut scenes..

Trailers can be rated higher due to the shorter time-span they have, Lady In The Water's trailer was a 12a because in a shorter duration they also heightened the intensity of a moment with editing. Similarly, Taken 2 has that.

Weirdy, all you need to know is that Liam Neeson kills anyone who stands in his way. Quote: "I will find you and I will kill you." And well, he does.
Haha, fair enough, I'll bear that in mind.

Interesting that Taken 2 is only a 12a certificate. I'm sure the first one was an 18.

Will be there tonight :)

Do you have a VR headset? If so, maybe we can play a physical sports game or even be sports/fitness partners, hit me up if you keen.
