It really didn't make sense that he would tell his daughter to crash the US Marines checkpoint. He knew they would open

Haha, not to mention him having the time to make a phone call to his buddy while a couple of soldiers are just standing at the top of the steps looking on even after that same car just took out the guard's booth of the US Embassy. Oh, and he's out and about looking for his wife half an hour after all that? Something tells me that the Embassy wouldn't be so accommodating.
They had four years between the last movie and this, yet this one feels so rushed. Just nowhere near the original. -

I feel like when they come up with this stuff, somebody in the room with the drawing board will speak up and say, why would he be driving through the US Embassy? And why doesn't anyone from the Embassy have any type of reaction?
And those guys probably hear back, "Stop at the checkpoint? But wouldn't it be cooler if they just drove straight through the checkpoint instead?"
So much of the movie was like that Kim throwing grenades willy nilly all over Istanbul with absolutely ZERO attention paid to her. Ridiculous.
My favorite part was when Kim, who could barely drive an automatic back home, can suddenly whip around crowded streets in a standard. She would have stalled, they would have died, we could have gone home 45 minutes sooner. -

If she was driving an automatic it'd have been more believable, driving stick shift is much harder when you learn in an automatic, and in the US all driver's ed classes are in automatic shift. Yes, she hit everything, but she knew EXACTLY when to put the clutch in and out when turning, the car never stalled, it never even looked like she struggled with the gears!
For someone who drives stick shift, out of EVERYTHING else, this was the least believable thing.WHAT THE FVCK IS A BIEBER????

In Turkey most of our cabs aren't Mercedes. And our drivers don't like auto shift cars, generally women use them here. Also we used those police cars in 70s, not any more, even the police amblem were wrong. As much as I like Liam Neeson, I can't help but say that I hate most the fact that almost no women were shown in the film, like our women don't go outside; and about the ones we saw well, very few women wear the black robes of cover nowadays in Turkey. However all of the women we saw in the movie were wearing them. In this age, are you (generally European and American people) still confusing us with the Arabic people? Yes we are Muslim and I even wear a headscarf but not like them. 'Extra info:The imam on the funeral at the beginning wasn't Albanian, he was definetely Turkish. And one more thing; why do these Albanian people speak English among themselves? Also the soccer play on Tv was in Turkish while the people watching it were speaking something I don't understand.

She could drive. That wasn't the problem, the problem was she couldn't parallel park which was said - but yes the fact that she couldn't do that but could whip around those tight street corners at high speeds was ridiculous.
