Because she was dead.

This just falls under the category that the audience doesn't have to be shown every single conceivable little detail but can just assume it happens off screen.
I know people have to pee, defecate and baththey didn't show anyone ever do it, how did everyone go 3 days without peeing? We just assume it happens off screen.
Obviously at the end, the pop star's house we can assume some time has passed since her rescue. We can assume she's gone through a lot of emotions and grief and needed lots of therapy in that time..trauma, fear, depression, the loss of her friend. Why must we be shown every conversation, every tear, every nightmare to assume it happened? So since we weren't shown her meeting the pop star and then bursting into tears and screaming AMANDA!!!!!! AMANDA!!!!! NOOOOOOOO!!!!!! on the star's front porch why does that have to mean she never grieved on those months or dealt with her emotions?
Not EVERYTHING has to happen on screen.

His attitude might have been that it was Amanda that got Kim into trouble in the first place going to paris and all that ergo he did not care for her.

He never cared about Amanda. Remember that when Bryan traced those guys through the phone the first time, he told them if they release his daughter he would let the matter drop, but otherwise he would find them. He never mentioned Amanda and so presumably they could keep her?

If he cared about all the girls in the world in an environment with INSANELY intelligent/violent men, he'd be shot dead or take so much time that Kim would have disappeared in the world of forced prostitution.

He takes burned phones and calls the local version of 911 at each location, dropping the phone there to be tracked. It's not shown because you shouldn't be watching this movie for filler-character closure. That's more of an issue for your butthurt-curing therapist to engage in. Try to keep up with the storyline, not the whole world in a movie that was intended to be a S2DVD, according to Liam Neeson.

And yeah, she was dead.

He didn't really care about anything but saving his daughter, as the scene at his friends place suggests. He shoots his wife to get him to help him. Brutal, yes, but effective nonetheless.

what you have to understand is that Bryan might still kind of be pissed at Amanda. after all, she's the one that started this whole problem, and had it not been for her, Kim would be safe and sound. i'm not saying Bryan was glad she's dead, but his anger at her and his grief for her probably balanced out, and thus, he felt neutral about the whole thing.

Amanda was a devious, lying little slut.

Of course it's an exaggeration. A girl doesn't even need to have sex to be labelled a slut now. Misogynistic bs. The previous poster almost seems to believe she got what she deserved. Why? She was a young, excited girl having fun in Paris. She made a big mistake, but that's what people do. Wanting a holiday fling does not make a woman a slut and I bet no one would use that word if we were discussing a male character.
Agreed, Amanda was a normal free-spirited teen girl.

No, 'Devious, lying little slut' is not exaggeration at all, I guess. She was delighted to think about sleeping with some Peter.

From what little we saw of Amanda, she was just an ordinary young girl making decisions from a position of inexperience. Her intent was never to cause her friend any harm, and like most people raised in relative wealth and security simply failed to consider the consequences of her actions, which were at the most extreme end of the list of possibilities anyway.
'Devious, lying little slut' is awfully exaggerated, don't you think?

Face it, Amanda was a devious, lying little slut. Aside from the fact that she was dead, her antics were what dragged Kim into this maelstrom of horror and filth in the first place. I'm sure Kim had enough time to start holding a serious grudge and as for Papa Bryan, he probably figured his ex-wife could hold Amanda's parents handsif she wanted to. They should have instilled some basic decency into their daughter when they had the chance. She arrived in Paris wanting to get laid, and she did. End of (her) story.

She was dead, OD'd, choked to death on her own sick.

Why call the cops if 1) They're paid off by the Albanians, and 2) They would already be on their way there anyway due to all the shots fired? Calling them would've been a waste of what little time he had.
The movie isn't about Amanda and Kim, it's about Bryan rescuing Kim, I highly doubt they wanted to spend money filming a five minute scene where they're in the hospital and Bryan tells Kim that Amanda is dead. Some things are better left off screen than on screen.
Wait a secondwhat the hell do you mean by "Make a hard decision to let the other woman die."? Amanda was already dead, there was absolutely nothing Bryan could've done for her, and the other girls would've been treated by the ambulances that got called in after the cops showed up, I mean hell what are they gonna do? Go in and put a bullet between each girls eyes and say they were like that when they got there? Odds are it's not the entire police force there that are corrupt, someone would notice that they're digging department issued slugs out of their skulls.

"That's one of the few problems I had with the movie. It appears that Bryan leaves the other women to their fate in the brothel. Maybe the cops eventually show up, but it would have been nice for Bryan to make an anonymous call to the cops."
Call the cops? The same cops that were being paid off by Albanians? Great idea.

Maybe he didnt want to risk the albanians shutting down operations and going into hiding, thus ruining his chances of ever finding his daughter.

That's one of the few problems I had with the movie. It appears that Bryan leaves the other women to their fate in the brothel. Maybe the cops eventually show up, but it would have been nice for Bryan to make an anonymous call to the cops.
And it would have been nice for his daughter to have had some reaction to her friend Amanda dying.
Maybe those parts were filmed and left on the cutting room floor. Maybe Besson wanted the audience to believe Bryan was a tough parent willing to make the hard decision to let the other women die to complete his mission and save the daughter he love. Who knows?

Try paying attention to the movie before posting these clueless threads.
