Season 1 Review:
Procedurals subsist on personalities, and for now, Taken has none: Mills is a vacuum with fists and a dead sister to avenge, while the character of Hart amounts to “serious politics woman with occasional glasses.” The rest of their team could be recast with different actors for every episode without anyone noticing.

Season 1 Review:
This version of Taken is rather more showily cynical than the films, with CIA bosses sitting around listening as hidden microphones relay the approach of armed-to-the-fang drug hitmen who plan to torture and kill Mills. "Shouldn't we, like, warn him?" wonders one: "Don't we have a moral duty?" Retorts Jennifer Beals, the Flashdance babe now graduated to a role as hardboiled spook-in-chief: "Okay, now you're boring me." No duh.

Season 1 Review:
The initial spike of recognition that comes from calling a show Taken rather than, say, Sister-Missing Tough Guy doesn't make up for the irritation that will come from viewers seeing how little of the big-screen Taken's DNA is actually in NBC's drama, and how little of substance has been added to take its place.
