... If you liked the first one, which I did, you will be a bit disappointed in the sequel. Liam Neeson still kicks a lot of butt, but the film suffers from a thin plot line. In 2, the father and relatives of the men he killed in number 1 are out to get him and... well there isn't much more to it. He and his wife get captured and he shows the daughter how to help him escape, etc. The rest is pure mindless action, and lots of it. I liked number 1 enough to purchase, but I decided to rent the sequel rather than make a blind buy, and I was glad I did.

Hi All,
I'm a long time lurker, very much into quality music reproduction and HT, and was once a DIY speaker builder (in high school!). My reason for this post is the tremendous knowledge base (or is that bass
) found here and that no commercially available product appears to fit the...

Anyone seen it yet? I saw it Wed night and thought it was pretty good. Very entertaining and a good "prequel" to the old Bond movies. It's an interesting dynamic for the prequel to come after the others in linear movie time (i.e. they don't try to make it look old, they keep with the present...
