First Thoughts: Liam Neeson is becoming the king of the first quarter actioner, but this one doesn’t really interest me like the previous two.

She sets out to bring in a guy that jumped bail that also happens to be the guy that seduced and dumped her back in high school. This could make for a big payday.
