It was not just 10 episodes, but was 10 days of my life that went in love, wonder, enthusiasm, excitement and thinking about it and its subject.
Technically, it was close to perfect. Good direction, nice acting, speedy and lovable script and very nice cinematography. But not just technically, the movie also wins heavy points in everything it was. Let's start with the story first. It is about three generations of three families entangled in some secret mission of aliens and a quest to find what that mission was. They were Crawford's, Keys and Clarke's. Clarke's were associated with aliens. They were the breed of it. Keys were 'Taken' by the aliens. And, Crawford's wanted to solve the mystery. They wanted the answers. But, answers are never simple; neither is the way of finding them. Answers are not always good too. Many of the times when we get them, we regret the moment we asked the question. But, nevertheless, we ask them, because, and so was said by Allie in the movie too, questions drive us. They make us go forward, and they make us move on. But, even though these questions are so much important to us, getting the final truth not just destroy us, but also ruin many thing around us. Some answers are not possible to get, some answers cannot be comprehended. And, so, we should know when to let it go. One more thing, which is very important, is to understand that in our quest of knowing the truth, we should not forget the difference between right and wrong. Because, that's what make us different, and that is what makes us special.
Movies have always been a source of knowledge to me. I have learned and have been inspired from a lot of movie. The same is the case with this Mini TV series. It made me learn things, and understand them. The best part, after its story, was the cast. It's not natural for me to love almost all the casts and characters of a movie. But, it's the case with Taken. Everyone was brilliant in their role. I especially very much liked whole of the 'Keys' family, and John, and Own Crawford, and Doctor Chet, and finally, our sweetest Allie. Dakota Fanning, who played the part of Allie, was not just cute and charming, but also brave, and real in that role. It wouldn't be wrong to say that I was waiting for her from the very first episode. The characters that I didn't like were that of Lisa Crawford and The General. I hated that Bastard when he tried to show off his morality in the end, after obviously ruining himself. Lisa was a bitch. I wanted her to die, but, well, she too lived.
I didn't like the end of the movie. I wanted it to end on a happy note. Yeah, it made logic and sense, but still, I expected something else. Again, if that were to happen, then what was the point to wait for so long? It could have occurred a long time before. All the hard work that Lisa, Charlie and Tom did somehow went into Futile.
But, apart from that, I loved it all along. And, this one, I will add into the list of my All Time favorite TV series.
