This is exactly what you call pushing your luck too far. Agreed, TAKEN was a big surprise hit and featured a bad ass Liam Neeson. But frankly, they should have left it at that. But no...producer Luc Besson has other ideas, which is nothing...but make (what many would consider) an unnecessary sequel.
The plot features the kidnapping of Bryan Mills (Liam Neeson) and his wife (Janssen), which means the daughter (Maggie Grace) is now taking the challenge of returning the favour by saving her parents. The villain for the sequel shall be Murad, the father of the baddie that Mills killed in the original film.
Obviously it looks strange that Neeson shall be playing a hostage as all would be expecting to see the same kick ass character that we saw the first time around. But if they are going to relegate him to the back seat, we know that this would have 'disaster' written all over it.
