![]() But Taken 3 is bad enough that it may just end it. Have we found a name for this genre yet, this revival of movies where aging badasses with very particular sets of skills go on kill-fests to protect their loved ones? “Dadsploitation”? “Father Kills Best”? I think I like my friend Matt Prigge’s description: “Peppy Fogey Fighting Romp.” Anyway, 2008’s Taken, with Liam Neeson as an ex-CIA black-ops guy trying to save his daughter from Albanian sex traffickers, could be said to have started it (or restarted it).
