Just watched the bluray (came out in Europe last year) rip of this and it's good. Not tremendously heavy on the plot, but well above average action. I don't remember Liam Neeson ever being as big a bad ass in any flick. Highly enjoyable.

He was the biggest badass I've seen on film in a while and I just watched Gran Torino, too.

He was a pretty bad man in Batman Begins, oh, and in The Phantom Menace up until Darth Maul butchered him.

Phantom Menace was crap, but Darth Maul is a fucking badass. I wonder how many pussies he stuck those horns in.

That belongs in the random thought thread.

Darth Maul should've been around until Episode II.

Just saw this, I echo the comments about the plot (the previews are it), but it was a fun action movie.

I was pretty impressed with both the movie, and the fact that I could watch it on Grabboid. Neeson was pretty great, and the movie moved along briskly.
I did want to beat the shit out of his wife though.

yeah, i actually saw the previews tonight. i've seen them before, it just wasn't coming to me. so yeah, looks good.

I was kinda thinking that Liam Neeson would be perfect as the Judge if/when Blood Meridian makes it to the big screen.

I loved this movie. Loved it. It was exactly what I expected. These revenge genre type movies are right up my ally. Anyone know of any other good ones?
