    Apparently a shirt hanging in a closet is enough to conceal a grown woman when playing hide and seek.

      haha, yes! i too thought that was beyond ridiculous. maggie grace is also really tall (5'9-5'10) so it's not like she'd be easy to hideand it's not like that closet was some massive walk-in.

        And no one in Istanbul seemed to care about kidnapping, car chasing, grenade explosion. because they took these as simple as sneezes?

          I thought of that scene too. How fun would that be to be those stuntmen.

            1. if you are a murderous thug and you think someone walked on a narrow ledge to another room, don't break down the door to the next room. Instead walk on the ledge and risk falling.
            2. if you know someone is one the other side of a wall, fire hundreds of rounds through the wall at chest level. That way you are guaranteed to ridddle their torso with bullets, unless they are crouching or lying down, in which case you will miss them.
            3. if you suspect someone is hiding in a closet, you can assume the person would not try to hide behind hanging clothes so don't bother to look behind them.

              Qui-Gon Jin wasnt killed in The Phantom Menace, as Liam killed the antagonist with nothing but the force at the end.
              28. A 50 cal bullet can be stopped by a Merc taxi's glass.

                1. When your enemy leaves a gun in front of you and then he turns his back on you, EXPECT that the gun isn't loaded.
                2. Don't trust the word of an Albanian.
                3. When you want to sleep with a girl, first do a thorough reasearch about her father. (Or he might does one for you.)

                  1. When Albanians bury their victims in the graveyard, ENGLISH is the spoken language there.
                  2. You can easily break into American embassy and then call your buddy asking him to tell them you are the good guy and five minutes later you can go out and search for your wife, no hurt feelings.
                  3. Just like in France, you can roam around in Turkey killing the bad guys in the streets and then return to your county and celebrate with your family, again no hurt feelings.

                      It's still a plothole. They could have put subtitles or did they expect the viewers of this film can't read.

                        Judging from the rating this film got from 200,000+ people I think the viewers might be illiterate. 😉

                          33a. While having driven maniacally through the embassy checkpoint and smashing to smithereens their check-booth and surviving a fusillade of 50ca bullets, and
                          then
                          calling your buddies on the golf course, you will have all kinds of time to small talk with your daughter because no one will approach the car and dare interrupt your conversation by attempting to kill or subdue you.
                          Democracy is the pathetic belief in the collective wisdom of individual ignorance. H.L. Mencken

                            1. When you randomly shoot and kill a detective in Turkey, even if he is a bit corrupt, you walk away scott free. No questions asked.
                            2. When your brother has been murdered and your elderly father goes out to seek revenge with 20 other well armed men, you two younger brothers decide to wait at home.
                            3. Liam Neeson would rather talk about 'baseabll' in an awkward manner than discuss the possibility of getting back with his ex wife.
                            4. People in California routinely decide to go to China as a family to try figure things out.
                            5. Famke Jensen hasn't aged well.
                            6. When there is a massacre in a hotel the Turkish police don't seal off the whole building or at least the room next to where some dead bodies have been found, despite clearly being there for some time.

                                She was 47 when she filmed the movie (and the original Taken was filmed when she was about 42)I'm guessing you haven't seen many women in real life, but at 47 they certainly don't look as good as that. I thought she looked beautiful.

                                Agree, My wife said, and I quote, "I wish I looked that good when I'm 50" and to be honest so do I.

                                  I didn't realise she was that old. Actually thought was early40's. I stand corrected
