Fast moving thriller about a father finding his daughter that was sold into the sex trade.
Suspenseful, with a happy ending, though less happy than one would expect.
It takes a special man to shoot a man’s wife in front of him to make his point.

Seventeen year-old Kim is the pride and joy of her father Bryan Mills. Bryan is a retired agent who left the Secret Service to be near Kim in California. Kim lives with her mother Lenore and her wealthy stepfather Stuart. Kim manages to convince her reluctant father to allow her to travel to Paris with her friend Amanda. When the girls arrive in Paris they share a cab with a stranger named Peter, and Amanda lets it slip that they are alone in Paris. Using this information an Albanese gang of human traffickers kidnaps the girls. Kim barely has time to call her father and give him information. Her father gets to speak briefly to one of the kidnappers and he promises to kill the kidnappers if they do not let his daughter go free. The kidnapper wishes him “good luck,” so Bryan Mills travels to Paris to search for his daughter and her friend.
This overly long sequel was beautiful in HD. The scenery was amazing. The fight scenes were interesting to watch. But the story felt uneven. Some portions flew by and other parts drug. The length of the film could probably have been cut by about half an hour with some good editing.
The animals and effects seemed to have been kicked up a notch in this sequel. They appeared more natural than the last. I particularly enjoyed the mice and the badger.
If only the acting of the 4 children had been improved at all.
An ok film. Wouldn’t seek it out again.
Our cat Thundercleese did give it 2 paws up. He really likes films where cats are gods. Not sure what that is about or if we should be worried.

We saw the first couple Batman films in the theatre and then just stopped going. This would have been great to see in the theatre. I like Christian Bale as Bruce Wayne. Could have used less Katie Holmes.
