Review: Watching “Honest Thief,” I felt like the child in the back seat repeatedly asking, “Are we there yet?” Not because the film was particularly slow or inept, I was just excited to get to the point in the film where Liam Neeson gets to run around punching people.

Once upon a time Neeson wasn’t an action star. 2008’s “Taken” changed all of that. Now, a year doesn’t pass without a Neeson action film. I’ve watched them all. The stories are similar. Some are better than others.
