In the context of the movie "Taken," the title uses "taken" as the past participle of the verb "take." The film revolves around a father whose daughter is abducted, and he must use his skills to rescue her. While "took" is the simple past tense of "take," "taken" is used to indicate an action that has been completed. Therefore, "taken" is the correct term in this context, highlighting the daughter's abduction.

"Taken" is an action-thriller film released in 2008, directed by Pierre Morel and starring Liam Neeson as Bryan Mills, a former CIA operative. The plot follows Mills as he races against time to rescue his daughter, Kim, who is kidnapped by human traffickers while traveling in Europe. Known for its intense action sequences and memorable one-liners, particularly the iconic "I will find you, and I will kill you," "Taken" has become a cultural phenomenon and spawned two sequels. Availability on Netflix may vary by region.

The "Taken" TV series, which premiered in 2017 and served as a prequel to the film franchise, was canceled after two seasons due to low ratings and a decline in viewership. Despite a strong fan base for the original movies starring Liam Neeson, the series struggled to capture the same audience, leading to its cancellation in 2018. The decision reflected the challenges of adapting popular film franchises into successful television formats.

In the movie "Taken," Liam Neeson's character, Bryan Mills, delivers the iconic line: "I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for a ransom, I can tell you I don’t have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my daughter go now, that’ll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don’t, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you."
