Liam Neeson Kicks More Ass in First RUN ALL NIGHT Trailer

From all accounts, Taken 3 is a terrible movie. I'm refusing to see it because I absolutely hated the second one so much, and I think director Olivier Megaton is one of the worst directors working today. I've written before about how I'd like to see Liam Neeson branch out from his action niche and try something different, but if he's going to keep making films in which he's the grizzled badass, at least they won't all be directed by Megaton.

Neeson reunited with his Unknown and Non-Stop director Jaume Collet-Serra for Run All Night, a new action film that pits Neeson against a mob boss played by Ed Harris. There are shades of Lucky Number Slevin in here (an underrated film I love), and the trailer indicates that the addition of Joel Kinnaman as Neeson's character's son will provide a bit of variation in the action formula this time around. Watch the first trailer below, and check out some new photos from the movie if you're interested.

Run All Night hits theaters on April 17th.
