"Taken 2" is a 2012 sequel to the 2008 action-thriller "Taken." The film is directed by Olivier Megaton and once again stars Liam Neeson as Bryan Mills. Here's a brief summary of the movie:
The story of "Taken 2" continues the life of Bryan Mills, a retired CIA operative. After the events of the first film, Bryan is trying to mend his relationships with his daughter, Kim, and her mother, Lenore. Kim is now dating a young man named Jamie, and Lenore's marriage is going through a rough patch.
To reconcile with his ex-wife, Bryan invites Lenore and Kim to join him in Istanbul, Turkey, where he is working as a private security consultant. Bryan is hoping to rekindle his relationship with Lenore. However, the family's reunion takes a dark turn when the relatives of the Albanian criminals Bryan killed in the first film seek revenge.
The leader of the vengeful Albanians, Murad Krasniqi, vows to bring Bryan and his family to justice. While in Istanbul, Bryan and Lenore are kidnapped, leaving Kim to evade capture. The film shifts its focus to Bryan's resourcefulness as he uses his skills to escape captivity and protect Lenore.
Bryan instructs Kim to assist him in their rescue by providing her with guidance on his whereabouts and his plan. The movie features a series of intense action sequences as Bryan outsmarts and defeats Murad's henchmen to save his family.
"Taken 2" builds upon the same themes of action and a father's unwavering determination to protect his loved ones, which were central to the first film. It continues to showcase Liam Neeson as a formidable and resourceful character. The film explores themes of family, revenge, and the consequences of Bryan's past actions, all set against the backdrop of the vibrant city of Istanbul.
