Summary: Coleman's brave role as "HEAD HONCHO HELD HOSTAGE" wins big
Review: Dabney Coleman is so believeable in his lead role in TAKEN that you almost forget he is acting. Dabney Coleman in the fashion industry? He is quietly compelling and honest in his role as company "Head Honcho Held Hostage". This DVD offers a rarely-seen warmer Dabney Coleman forced into a desperate and dark world of harsh betrayal and the violation of all sense of security in his life. Kidnapped and broken, Dabney Coleman maintains a stark realism that carries flawlessly and carefully through this entire film. He makes you wonder if you would have the strength to survive if faced with the same circumstances. TAKEN relies on the "less is more" theme in movie making. What it lacks in soundtrack music and glossy visuals, it more than completes in raw emotion and flawless acting by the charismatic and compelling Dabney Coleman. TAKEN in DVD format is sharp and clear and the editing is flawless.

Summary: This is NOT the Speilberg / SciFi channel mini-series!
Review: I noticed that a couple of reviewers had mistaken this 1999 movie starring Dabney Coleman for the 'Taken' mini-series that aired in 2002 on the SciFi Channel. It is NOT.

That mini-series in not yet available as I write (March 2003), but should be released later this year.

Just thought you should know.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Taken
Review: I really enjoyed this movie. Dabney Coleman was excellent in this film, and I was so impressed with his acting. I only remember seeing him in comedy. I highly recommend this movie. The movie reminds us all that sometimes people in our own family are hiding secrets that would astound us. Good movie.
