Back when I was in high school, some buddies of mine invited me to go to the movies one night. I asked what movie they wanted to watch and they replied the new Liam Neeson action movie. At the time, I’d never pegged Neeson as an action star, but I was open to the idea.
The movie we went to see was Taken and it was actually great. It jumpstarted the second wave of Neeson’s career as an action hero. He then made movies like The A Team, The Grey, Non Stop, The Commuter and two more Taken movies. Not only that, it also kind of picked up on the idea of memes before memes were a thing. Even now, the “I will find you and I will kill you” line is popular with memes.
It is with that in mind that comes Cold Pursuit, Neeson’s latest revenge thriller that sees him kicking major ass while harming some really bad people. It’s first trailer that headlines the six trailers you should watch this weekend.
Cold Pursuit
“What makes you think you can kill a man?”
That’s the question the first trailer Liam Neeson’s action thriller Cold Pursuit asks and the answer turns out to be very black and white: when somebody kills your son. That’s when Nels (Neeson) goes on a rampage in a winter snow wonder seeking bloody retribution.
Bird Box
