1. Why leave the plane that offered shelter, food, and plenty of stuff to burn/turn into weapons? "Hey, let's walk into those woods instead!" Further, it was out in the open and more likely to spot than 7 dudes trudging through the woods. Which brings me to point 2...

They wolves were picking them off in the camp. The plane was ripped to shreds and wasn't really protecting them from the below freezing temps or the wolves. It's not like it had a door you could open and close. Not to mention they needed a fire to keep warm, which you couldn't light up inside the remainder of the plane.

2. We're supposed to believe no one would look for them cause they're rufneks? Huh? OK, what about the pilots, stewardess and airline's multi-million $ plane not to mention all their families. Movie really lost me here. Again, the "we're on our own out here" theme was ridiculous in this day and age.

They never confirmed this. The roughnecks were purely speculating that they were "nobodies". I think their inability to get rescued stemmed from their exact location being hard to track down. They knew that their was a possibility they wouldn't be found, so they had to take matters into their own hands.

3. After seeing the previews, it was obvious that Liam would be left to fight a last battle on his own. So the plot boils down to a tedious wait to see who'll get eaten next.

Who else were they going to show on the previews? Neeson was the only recognizable actor in the film. I couldn't even tell you the details of the previews.

Your silly nitpicking can easily be questioned. You can say this type of shite about any movie. Not sure what you were expecting from this.

I'm sure you have a nice breakdown of "Taken" as well?
