Sixteen years after “Taken” made him the most improbable action star on the planet, Liam Neeson has finally announced that he’ll soon be retiring from the genre that made him famous all over again — a career move he plans to implement by the end of 2025. To judge by the…
davidehrlichNov 6, 2024came to watch Liam Neeson take out punks, got Liam Neeson having nightmares about fishing with his dad when he’s not walking around mumbling to himself; irrevocably dull, even in its approximately three minutes of throat punching action
Justin LaLibertyNov 2, 2024It would be very easy to write Absolution off as just another generic Liam Neeson action movie but you'd be wrong. This is a solid crime thriller, a mix of Neeson's excellent In the Land of Saints and Sinners and Micheal Keaton's Knox Goes Away from earlier this year. A…

I have a weird feeling if my grandpa had to pick between me and liam neeson I'm not getting picked
DevonApr 21, 2025■ Summary ⭐️⭐️: ❌️ In an action and crime film where I don’t have much to say, Liam Neeson is no longer the young star of his past films. Here, there are fewer action scenes than in his previous works, with a whole hour devoid of any fight sequences. He’s begun to forget…
Islam AlbhloliDec 17, 2024Absolution is yet another film in the category of "these actors from my youth are now old enough to play geezers with dementia and I'm not happy about it". Between this one (Liam Neeson), Knox Goes Away (Michael Keaton), and Sleeping Dogs (Russell Crowe) I think the…

It's everything you'd expect out of a late career Liam Neesons movie. 🤷
J. K.Apr 3, 2025Liam Neeson likes to Retribute, Whenever he's in Cold Pursuit. In the Land of Sinners, Some can be winners, But none quite as Absolute.
JBirdNov 2, 2024“Absolution” is the three D’s: Dark, Dull and Depressing! Liam Neeson, why did you do this to me, you Know I am a fan! LOL! This is what really got me, Neeson turns down his star wattage to almost nothing! He looks so worn out as a man on the cusp of death; he really…

Movies with Liam are always good
Andrew Allred dislikedAbsolutionSuch an overstuffed movie that somehow makes every plot-line seem cynical. Liam Neeson tries a Boston accent like 30 percent of the time. Definition of bleh.
Jen is "meh" onAbsolutionI’m normally a fan of all his movies but this one was just so slow I couldn’t get into it.
- Collin Moran dislikedAbsolution

2 hours of your time that you will never get back
LJLaFever JohnSpecial kind of film about dementia, from a career criminal's point of view.
GCGrace CabunocJust ok. Husband liked it. Movie has a slow start, on the boring side; then it picks up with more action. Just ok.

It would be blasphemous to produce another “Neeson-as-old-but-badass-motherfuck*r flick” after this one.

Yes, it feels as if we’ve seen this movie before — but thanks to the suitably gritty and grainy, New England-set direction by Hans Petter Moland, the still-resonant star power of Neeson and a terrific supporting cast, “Absolution” delivers a punch with a sting all its own.

The film’s various elements do not quite meld, and despite a few strong performances, none of the characters feel fully three-dimensional.
