Things I learned from Taken 3


I enjoyed this movie, it was less ridiculous then Taken 2.
But it was an inevitable target for our famous list of incredible things that happen in movies... :-)

1/ When you are a good detective, you eat the evidence instead of securing it (bagels)
2/ If you have surveillance on a funeral, make sure it is in an inconspicuous car and not one that light up like a Christmas tree.
3/ When you are a bad guy trying to get in a safe, make sure you grab the clerk in the neck; that way he will do anything you say.
4/ If you want to make your framed opponent suspicious, go tell him he must keep away from his ex-wife. (your wife)
5/ If you are a wanted criminal, true or not, go to the mortuary, they wont expect you there.
6/ If your prisoner is very dangerous, only trust handcuffs, while making bragging jokes about it.
7/ If you are stuck as a detective, play with the knight chess piece, or with an elastic wire around your wrist.
8/ If you are attacked, just a tap of your flat hand on his back makes your enemy unconsciousness.
9/ If you throw a grenade to a car, more than 200 meters away, it will land exactly in the hole in the front window of the car.
10/ If you are asked who you work for, put a gun in your mouth and pull the trigger.
11/ If you are in front of a bunch of high tech surveillance stuff, you have never seen before, you know exactly which key to press.
12/ If you are a bad guy, hired as a guard, and you don't know what's happening, just empty your machinegun in every direction.
13/ Entangled in a heavy fight, you barely survive, you will be able to fire your rifle multiple times.
14/ When you are under heavy machinegun fire, just keep your hand in front of your face, it will stop the bullets.
15/ Fighting in your underpants wont help you, even if your opponent is distracted by that.
16/ If you lose your earpiece in a heavy fight, do not worry,
you will be called and you will find it in a second.

30. If you're escaping a very hot police pursuit on a freeway... in a police car... with a police officer at the wheel... and you jump the concrete divider into the oncoming lanes... and get T-boned and spun around not once, not twice, but THREE times, you will be able to drive away with ZERO visible damage... because police cars are made in a different factory than the identical civilian model... :rolleyes:
