Olivier Megaton directs Liam Neeson, Maggie Grace and Famke Janssen in this action sequel where this time around Bryan Mills and his ex are the one’s kidnapped in Istanbul by the family of the white slaver he judo chopped to death last time around.

Everything that was wrong and forgivable about the sleeper hit is rehashed. The sequence where Maggie Grace lobs grenades off the rooftops of Istanbul has certain demented charm. Hits a spot.
