I don't want to keep using the word "badass" to describe everything from Pierre Morel's new movie From Paris with Love, but there is no better word to use! This is his follow-up to Taken that is already ready to go and being released next February. We've seen one poster already and a badass trailer (there's that damn word again) and now we have two more official posters thanks...

I've been a fan of Pierre Morrel ever since his French parkour action film District B13 floored me back in 2005. The film was certainly imperfect, but looking at it purely as an action film you could tell that Morrel was someone to watch out for in the future. Several years later, he reminded us that Liam Neeson can still kick ass in Taken, and he's currently putting the finishing touches on...

Since his career resurrection in 1994, John Travolta’s hits have dried up a great deal. He’s still A-list, but he’s coasting on past successes. Could Luc Besson and Pierre Morel be providing him with a new hit? From Paris With Love , judging from the excellent trailer, looks set to give Travolta a needed boost. Even the poster looks great! Travolta (with shaved head and goatee) teams...

I've never been able to rave enough about District B13, the French action film that introduced the world to Taken director Pierre Morel and used parkour better than pretty much any other movie has since. It's not really the kind of movie that begs for a sequel, being that it's a short and sweet 80 minutes long and ties everything up at the end. But now that a sequel exists, I'm not going...

Almost exactly a year after Taken stormed American theaters, director Pierre Morel will return with From Paris With Love , a great title for a movie that is about the exact opposite. Oh sure, it's Paris, but love is probably the wrong emotion. The film stars John Travolta and Jonathan Rhys Meyers as Eddie Murphy and Nick Nolte or Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan or Mel Gibson and Danny Glover....
