Liam Neeson Is "The Best" In New 'Taken 2' Trailer

Liam Neeson has threaten to come and find moviegoers if don’t sit through his new minute and a half Taken 2 movie trailer.

Taken 2 is the sequel to Neeson’s bada$$ 2009 action film Taken. In that film, Neeson’s character went to no lengths to rescue his teenage daughter after she was kidnapped by a sex slave operation. Sequels don’t always live up to the original, but if a person were to judge this film’s trailers, Taken 2 looks like it may foot the bill.

The official synopsis for Taken 2 read:

Neeson returns as Bryan Mills, the retired CIA agent with a particular set of skills who stopped at nothing to save his daughter Kim from Albanian kidnappers. When the father of one of the kidnappers swears revenge and takes Bryan and his wife hostage during their family vacation in Istanbul, Bryan enlists Kim to help them escape, and uses the same advanced level of special forces tactics to get his family to safety and systematically take out the kidnappers one by one.

Taken 2 is slated to hit theaters October 5. Below is the new Internet-only trailer that debuted late last night on Youtube. Watch it, along with an intense intro message from Neeson himself in his usually raspy voice:
