Liam Neeson in his new movie, A Walk Among the Tombstones, is seen to have one of his most important gadgets that he always depends on in his every movie - his cellphone.
The action star Neeson plays a former cop who is in pursuit of a couple of kidnappers and spend 8.5 minutes, which is roughly 7 percent of the movie talking in his cellphone - arranging deals, demand to know if the girl is still alive, etc.
It is actually remarkable that this actually helps Neeson in his trademark for palying his role as a good guy who saves the day - and the girl. The actor played the role of an ex-government spy who had his daughter kidnapped in the movie, Taken. One of the best secens in that movie is when Neeson picked up his daughter's phone and talked to the kidnappers giving them the speech of his "skills" and he will find and kill them.
In the second movie, Taken 2, Neeson also spent some quality time on the phone helping her daughter find him. He spends aroughly 10 percent of the movie on his phone.
In Non-stop, Neeson plays the part of an air marshall who was being blackmailed while he is on the plane. The story was built again on a phone where Neeson communicates with the hackers who are trying to blackmail and frame him.
