A father's race to save his children has no frills but lots of thrills

Liam Neeson plays a father trying to protect his children from a bomb threat in Retribution , with its memorable threat and its violently determined father, was a breakout hit and became a legend of badass movie-quote history. Itwith its speedy cutaways, twitchy close-ups of the protagonist’s face, and high-octane car chases through the streets of Berlin.

The story, too, is familiar to the point of being rote: Matt Turner works for a successful financial firm and has a wife and two children, Zach and the young Emily . He is driving the kids to school when he learns, via a mysterious and twisted phone call, that there are powerful explosives wired into his car, and pressure plates in the seats, meaning that any attempt by him and his children to escape will lead to catastrophe.

Among the best in a series of exciting sequences is one excellent nail-biter where the bomber uncovers a secret account belonging to Turner’s CEO boss and demands the money in it, later arranging a meet-up where he demands that Matt shoot and kill his boss in exchange for the lives of his children. When Matt refuses, all hell breaks loose, with gunfire and shrapnel launching across the screen in a moment of genuine throat-clutching peril.
