Review: Memory Film (2022) Starring Liam Neeson Which Airs This April

Image
Liam Neeson is not a bad actor. He is much more than that. If you watch his films, you will know that this actor has more than just talent for playing on the big screen. But if the question were changed to whether Liam Neeson's recent choice of roles was too boring, the answer would probably be "yes". Although Neeson plays well in various types of genres, but since Taken, this one actor is too comfortable to play as a hitman or martial artist with few problems to make his film different from other cheap action films. Sometimes relationship issues, sometimes alcoholic. And what keeps these films from being made (and watched) is the fact that Liam Neeson plays this so effortlessly, the audience easily gets into his world. In Memory, the latest film directed by Martin Campbell, which yesterday also released The Protégé, Liam Neeson plays Alex Lewis. He is an assassin who is very good at his job. He has no moral compass, all work is work. The only taboo for him was killing sm...
