We all recall the grief-stricken father Liam Neeson,his name became more powerful after his super act in movies like Taken,Taken 2,The Grey and Batman Begins.
His extraordinary performance made us love him even more,he is among the most recognized movie icons,as we eagerly wait for his upcoming American action film "Non-stop" here Msongo lists Neeson's killer performances of all times.
10.Taken :A retired CIA agent travels across Europe and relies on his old skills
to save his estranged daughter, who has been kidnapped while on a trip
to Paris.This was in 2008 where we all saw Liam's badassery ..
9.Battleship:Most actions in this film were from Taylor Kitsch's ,but Neeson's performance in this film should never be underestimated,the movie is about a fleet of ships forced to do battle with an armada of unknown
origins in order to discover and thwart their destructive goals.
8.The Grey: He gave the wolves hard time,if we remember after their plane crashed in Alaska, six oil workers were led by a
skilled huntsman to survival, but a pack of merciless wolves haunts
their every step.Neeson after surviving an airplane crash in a blizzard, gets in to mono a mono fights with wolves and faces his mortality like a man.
7.Darkman: Liam Neeson is a scientist who has discovered a way to produce synthetic skin. This
could revolutionize skin grafting, except for one minor glitch; the
synthetic skin degrades after 100 minutes of exposure to light. When
gangsters attack Peyton, he is horrifically burnt, and assumed dead. In
his quest for revenge, Peyton, aka the Darkman, is able to take on the
appearance of anyone (using the synthetic skin,) but he's only got 100
minutes per disguise.
6.Taken II:Do you have the guts to save your family when they are kidnapped?Bryan Mills, a seemingly mild mannered dad invites her daughter and ex-wife to spend time with him in Istanbul ,Meanwhile, the patriarch of the community of the Albanian gang of human
trafficking, Murad Krasniqi, seeks revenge for the death of his son and
organizes another gang to kidnap Bryan and his family. Bryan and Lenore
are abducted by the Albanians, but Kim escapes and is the only hope that
Bryan has to escape and save Lenore.
5.Batman Begins:Liam played a perfect mentor in this,training a millionaire playboy Bruce Wayne who lost his parents.So they say becoming a badasss you have to be mentored by a badass..so Batman skills came from the legend himself Mr.Neeson..
4.Clash of the Titans:As Zeus, leader of the gods on Mount Olympus, Liam punished mere mortals
by knocking up their wives (whoopsies!), turning enemies into monsters
with lightning and literally unleashing the Kraken.
3.The A Team:Col. John Smith was nicknamed Hannibal, for one. Not after the cannibal,
but instead one of the greatest military leaders of all time,he leads a group of Iraq War veterans who look to clear their name with the U.S.
military, who suspect the four men of committing a crime for which they
were framed.
2. Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch & The Wardrobe:Aslan, the titular Great Lion, might be Narnia's substitute for Jesus
Christ figure, but he's hardly a pacifist. That's not what makes the
king of beasts, voiced by Liam, badass though: Aslan was killed. But
didn't die!
1.kingdom of Heaven;Neeson plays Baron Godfrey of Ibelin, a man with a big ass sword who
knows how to use it. Like, say against a family member (he kills his own
nephew, for one). Plus he knights people, which is just plain awesome.The movie is about Balian of Ibelin travels to Jerusalem during the crusades of the 12th
century, and there he finds himself as the defender of the city and its
people.
Liam Neeson trained Batman, Obi Wan, and Darth Vader. He is both Aslan and Zeus...and he punches wolves. Why would you kidnap his family?
