LIAM NEESON IS A ‘THUG’

It appears that Liam Neeson is sticking with this genre of movie indefinitely.  Another action/thriller in the pipeline, this one called Thug.

The story revolves around an ageing San Pedro gangster (Neeson) who wants to quit the old life and reconnect with his children.  However, the criminal underworld has other ideas and pulls him back in.  Tony Gayton wrote this one while Warren Goz, Eric Gold, Roger Birnbaum, Michael Besman and James Masciello are producing.

The film is directed by Cold Pursuit helmer Hans Petter Moland.  Is it fair to say though that Neeson’s career is taking on water?  He’s making a lot of these movies recently, but a lot of them have also been kind of shit.

Well, we shall see…
