I can't wait for this movie. All Luc Besson movies have been da' ****!!! La Femme Nikkita-Cool, The Professional-rocked! The Fifth Element-Spectacularly Awesome!!! The Messenger:The Story of Joan of Arc - Pretty good...but those films he directed, as a Producer, Kiss of the Dragon was awesome, The Transporter was cool, Taxi was okay, Wasabi was funny, I just have plain faith in his films...This one will become a major hit!!!

The trailer looks great! Good dialog, realistic action, and Liam being the kind of bad ass he should have been in Star Wars. Not, your fault Liam. Lucas just doesn't know what to do with actors. American Graffiti is still the best movie he ever made.

I like Liam Neeson a lot. I just wish they'd give him a decent film to be in. This ain't it!
