I watched the movie called “Taken” last-night at the cinema. Before i watch this film, I knew about the plot briefly as people already told me about it beforehand. So I expected this film to be just thriller and action type exciting movie as well as the all the other movies, which contains the plot where their kids get kidnapped. Guess my expectation was right! But it has something important matter that i want to discuss about. First of all I want to say that i really liked the film and i actually enjoy the movie more than i thought. The movie taken is directed by a french director. The main character Brian was the former secret Agent worker and now lives separately with her daughter due to the divorce with his wife. He’s daughter Kim was on a trip to Paris with her friend and during the phone call with Brian, she gets kidnapped by strangers. There were no reasons or clues why she got kidnapped and where she was taken to. As Brian was the brilliant former Secret Agent specialty worker, he flew over to Paris and through the risks and ventures, he saves his girl finally.
In the movie the MOBILEPHONE plays the major role that which has connected and led Brian to his daughter Kim.
As technologies have improved we have lots and lots of functions contained just in our mobile phone. I mean mobile phone does more than just making phone calls but we can take pictures and now even has a memory stick (chip) where you can store all your information and you can call and keep the contact with people even outside the country. As Brian has roamed Kim’s phone where they can call easily each other even if Kim was in France and Brian was in California. In the film, Brian records the voice of her daughter at the moment when she got kidnapped and actually finds out who took her, as he analyses the photo album which was contained in her phone. Her mobile phone was the most important evidence which led Brian to find and save her daughter. It was interesting that the fact where technologies and media like mobile phones has took a big part in our lives. The possible real life problem that could happen in our life, mixed and matched with modern technology and media mobile phone was put together in the film and they were well harmonized I guess. Therefore I realized the great usefulness of our mobile phones and it’s capacity in our daily life and I recommend you to watch this film if you haven’t watched it.
