Liam Neeson is such a wonderful actor but his talent is always overpowered by karate chops and guns blazing. It seems like his roles are reminiscent of 007 in every movie... except this one. In this movie, it was refreshing to see a talented man perform without special effects as a distraction. It was nice to see him in such an articulate role filled with emotion, and strife, and indecisiveness. Neeson surely can act!
***Spoiler***: I was a little confused from the beginning until the last few minutes, because the characters were supposedly in different countries but they kept walking past one another, driving past one another, and entering the same rooms. It all came together in the end with a revelation that I should have figured out sooner; but in hindsight, I guess I just wanted every scenario to be real.
But overall this is an excellent movie that will stimulate the mind. It is truly a masterpiece and I recommend it to all those who are looking for a legitimate drama without the accompaniment of boredom.
