这部一共10集，一集80分钟左右的剧集，我断断续续的看了一个多月，没有时间一口气看下来真是遗憾。斯皮尔伯格制片，是他在《兄弟连》之后，《世界大战》前的作品，有着两者的影子。与BOB一样，Taken是部史诗般的作品，故事从二战结束一直到今天，片里的布景、服饰、音乐、汽车甚至广播电视都在向我们讲述美国50年来的变迁史。而和WOTW一样，Taken是部充满想象力的科幻片。
与其他讲述外星人的片子不同，Taken把大部分的精力没有放在外星人上，而是放在了外星人后裔的CLARKE家族、被外星人劫持的KEYS家族以及追踪外星人的CRAWFORD家族上面，三个家族的三代人，50年的恩恩怨怨，在这部并不以扣人心弦取胜而又让人看着津津有味的片子里展示的淋漓尽致。
一切都只为了一个人的出现，CLARKE和KEYS家族的结晶，八分之一外星人血统的ALLIE（由Dakota Fanning扮演）。一个九岁的little girl拥有外星人的意念和人类的感情，成为了人类和外星人共同追逐的对象。ALLIE无疑是这部片子里的核心。
episode01 Beyond the Sky，导演Tobe Hooper。由罗斯韦尔事件开始，三个家族的命运纠缠在了一起。
episode02 Jacob and Jesse，导演Breck Eisner。第二代人Jacob CLARKE和Jesse KEYS的故事由此开始。
episode03 High Hopes，导演Sergio Mimica-Gezzan。Jacob超人的意念和Jesse的被劫持，Owen CRAWFORD杀掉妻子。
episode04 Acid Tests，导演Bryan Spicer。这一集是一个悲剧，同是外星人后裔的双胞胎没能像Jacob那样好好的活下来，而是成了身边人们眼中的恶魔。Eric CRAWFORD看着自己的兄弟Sam跟那可怜的双胞胎一起葬身火海，又活活气死了自己的父亲Owen。
episode05 Maintenance，导演Félix Enríquez Alcalá。正如标题Maintenance一样，故事继续发展着，Eric从Owen手中接过了追踪外星人的事业，Jesse的儿子Charlie继承了被外星人劫持的命运。
episode06 Charlie and Lisa，导演Thomas J. Wright。Charlie KEYS和Lisa CLARKE从未谋面，却生下了他们的孩子ALLIE，漂亮的小姑娘（Little ALLIE由Dakota Fanning的妹妹扮演）。
episode07 God's Equation，导演Jeremy Paul Kagan。ALLIE的能力让所有人吃惊，Eric被女儿Mary杀死。
episode08 Dropping the Dishes，导演Jeff Woolnough。U.S.Army Vs. ALLIE。
episode09 John，导演John Fawcett。ALLIE逃脱，给她外星血统的曾祖父John归来。
episode10 Taken，导演Michael Katleman。ALLIE走了，还会回来。
片中最发人深思还是ALLIE的叙述，拿了一些放在下面：
ALLIE: Sometimes when you go someWhere far away and then come back, the part that bothers you most is not the things that have changed, but the way that other things have stayed the same, like you hadn't been anyWhere or done anything at all.
有时候当你从远方回来后，最困扰你的往往不是改变了的事物，而是其他事物维持原状，就像你哪里也没去，什么也没做一样。
ALLIE: There are times when it seems like the whole world is afraid, when the fear is something you have to live with day in and day out.
When people get scared, they do a lot of different things, they fight or they run, they destroy the thing they're afraid of, or they put a lot of distance between it and them. Make it something you can shoot at with a friction-action gun.
有些时候似乎整个世界都在害怕，你不得不天天面对恐惧。当人们害怕时，他们会做很多事情，他们斗争、逃离、摧毁他们害怕的东西，或者在他们之间拉开很长的距离，让它成为一种你可以用枪射击的东西。
ALLIE: My grandfather used to tell my mum that kids should never have to worry about anything more serious than baseball. Everything you need to know is there. It has success and failure, moments Where you come together and moments Where you stand alone.
And it has an ending, not a clock like in other sports, but an ending.
我的祖父曾告诉我的妈妈，小孩子不必担心比棒球更严肃的事情。你所需要知道的所有事情都在棒球里。那里有成功有失败，有时候一起上，有时一个人。而且会有结束，不像其它运动中的时间到，而是一个结束。
ALLIE: People like to examine the things that frighten them, to look at them and give those names. So saints look for God and scientists look for evidence. They're both just trying to take away the mystery, to take away the fear.
人们喜欢调查使他们害怕的东西，去了解他们，去给他们命名。所以圣人去找上帝，而科学家去找证据。他们都只是在试图揭开神秘，带走恐惧。
ALLIE: We all like to think that we have some control over the events in our lives. And a lot of the time we can fool ourselves into thinking that we really are in charge. But then something happens to remind us that the world runs by its own rules and not ours and that we're just along for the ride.
我们都会认为我们对于生活中发生的事情有所掌控，而且大多数时候我们可以欺骗自己我们真的可以控制。但是一些事情的发生提醒我们，世界根据它自己的规律运转，而不是我们的，我们只是搭便车而已。
ALLIE: You know in cartoons, the way someone can run off a cliff and they're fine. They don't fall until they look down? My mum always said that was the secret of life. Never look down. But it's more than that. It's not just about looking. It's about not ever realizing that you're in the middle of the air and you don't know how to fly.
你知道在卡通里，他们跑过悬崖却安然无恙，他们不往下看就不会下坠吗？妈妈总是告诉我那是生命的奥妙。不要往下看。更重要的是，不仅不要往下看，而且永远不要意识到自己在空中并且不会飞翔。
ALLIE: The world is made up of the big things that happen and the small ones. And the part that's so unfair is that we call them "big" and "small. “Because when something happens to you, when you lose something or someone that you really care about, that's all there is. The world may be blowing up around you, but you don't care about that. You don't care about that at all.
这个世界是由发生的大事小事组成的，以及我们把他们用“大”和“小”来区分是不公平的，因为有些事情在你身上发生，你失去你确实关心的人和物，那就是全部，即使世界在你周围爆炸，但是你并不在意，你根本不在意。
ALLIE: I have this idea about why people do the terrible things they do. Same reason little kids push each other on the schoolyard. If you're the one doing the pushing, then you're not going to be the one who gets pushed. If you're the monster, then nothing will be waiting in the shadows to jump out at you. It's pretty simple. Really. People do the terrible things they do because they're scared.
对于人们为什么做坏事，我有这样的想法，是跟小孩子在操场上你推我打一样的原因。如果你打别人，那么你就不会是那个被打的。如果你是怪兽，那么就不会有东西在阴影里等着跳出来吓唬你。这很简单，真的，人们做坏事是因为他们的恐惧。
ALLIE: We're all standing on the edge of a cliff. All the time, every day. A cliff we're all going over. Our choice isn't about that. Our choice is about whether we want to go kicking and screaming or whether we might want to open our eyes and our hearts to what happens once we start to fall.
我们都站在悬崖的边缘，每时每刻，一个我们都要越过的悬崖。我们的选择不是关于怎么越过，我们的选择是我们开始下坠时是要挣扎和尖叫还是敞开眼睛和心扉。
ALLIE: What makes us human? That we can think? That we can feel sorrow and pain? Maybe. That we can laugh? I hope so. We can hurt and we can laugh and we know a past and a present. And, in some ways. A future. Maybe what makes us human is that we know just enough to think we know Where we're going.
什么让我们成为人类？我们能思考？我们能感受伤心和痛苦？也许吧。我们会笑？我希望是。我们会伤心，我们会笑，我们知道过去和现在，还有，某种意义上，未来。或许，让我们成为人类的原因是我们知道我们要去哪里。
ALLIE: When you're a kid, anything can take you away-- soap bubbles or a hose spraying a rainbow up over a new-mowed lawn. I guess growing up means that it gets harder and harder to find your way back to that kind of place Where you can be taken. The one time I see grownups with that same sort of look on their faces is when they're just at first falling in love.
当你是个小孩的时候，所有东西都能把你吸引走——肥皂泡或者新修剪的草坪上喷出彩虹的水管。我想长大以为着越来越难找到你可以被带走的地方。唯一一次我看见大人脸上有这种表情是在他们刚刚坠入爱河的时候。
ALLIE: Some people spend their lives hoping for something to happen that will change everything. They look for power or love, or the answers to their biggest questions. I think really what they're looking for is another chance, some way to lead another life Where all the mistakes they've made would be erased, and they could just start over. Nothing bad has happened yet, and all their possibilities are still in front of them.
有些人用一生来期盼能改变一切的事情发生，他们寻找力量或者爱，或者能回答他们的大问题的答案。我想他们真正寻找的是另一个机会，能够过一种让他们所犯的所有错误消失的生活，并且可以重新开始。没有什么不好的事情发生，他们所有的可能性都放在他们面前。
ALLIE: People come home for a lot of reasons. They come home to remember. They come home because they've got no place else to go. They come home when they're beaten. They come home when they're proud. They come home looking for a door out into their past or a road out into their future. They come home for a lot of reasons, but they always come home to say good-bye.
人们回家有很多理由。他们回家为了记忆，他们回家因为他们无处可去，他们回家因为他们被打败，他们回家因为他们骄傲，他们回家因为寻找一向通往过去的门或者通向未来的路。他们因为很多的原因回家，但是最多的时候他们回家为了说再见。
ALLIE: Some people put a lot of work into their lawn, as if a patch of green grass was the most important thing in the world, as if they thought that as long as the lawn out front was green and mowed and beautiful. it wouldn't matter at all what was going on inside the house.
有些人在他们的草坪上下大工夫，好像世界上最重要的东西就是一片绿地，好像他们认为只要门前的草坪绿油油又修剪的漂亮，那么房子里怎样就无所谓了。
ALLIE: When everything in your life is right on track; it’s easy to believe that things happen for a reason. It's easy to have faith. But when things start to go wrong, then it's very hard to hold on to that faith. It's hard not to wonder whose reasons these things happen for.
当你生命中的每一件事都在正常的轨道上，就很容易相信事情发生都是有原因的，就很容易拥有信念。但是当事情出乱子时，就很难去保持这种信念，很难去想这些事情发生是为了什么。
ALLIE: People move through their lives sometimes without really thinking about Where they're going. Days pile up, and they get sadder and lonelier without really knowing why they're so sad or how they got so lonely. Then something happens--they meet someone who looks a certain way or has something in their smile. Maybe that's all that falling in love is-- finding someone who makes you feel a little less alone.
人们又是迁移时并不知道他们要去哪里。一天又一天，他们变得更加悲伤和孤独，而且并不知道他们为什么这样悲伤和孤独。然后一些事情发生了——他们遇见一些看起来很当然的或者在他们的笑容中有些什么的人，也许这就是坠入爱河的全部——找到让你感到不那么孤独的人。
ALLIE: People say that when we grow up, we kick at everything we've been told. We rebel against the world our parents have worked so hard to bring us into, that part of growing up is kicking at the ties that bind. But I don't think that's why we kick at all. I think we kick when we find out that our parents don't know much more about the world than we do. They don't have all the answers. We rebel when we find out that they've been lying to us all along, that there isn't any Santa Claus at all.
人们说当我们长大的时候，我们反对所有我们被告知的事情。我们反抗这个父母辛辛苦苦带我们进入的世界，成长一部分就是反对束缚。但我从不认为那是我们反对的原因。我想我们反对是因为我们发现对于这个世界父母们并不比我们知道的多。他们没有所有问题的答案。我们反抗因为我们发现他们一直在向我们撒谎，比如从来没有什么圣诞老人。
ALLIE: My mum told me once that when you're afraid of something, what you want more than anything else is to make it go away. You want your life back to the way it was before you found out there was something to be afraid of. You want to build a high wall and live your old life behind it. But nothing ever stays the same. It's not your old life at all, but your new life with a wall around it. Your choice is not about going back to the way things were.
妈妈曾经告诉我说当你害怕某些东西的时候，你最想做的就是把它赶走。你想找回你发现令你害怕的东西之前的生活。你想建一座高墙，在里面过你原来的生活。但是没有事情是一成不变的。这不再是你以前的生活，而是被墙围起来的新生活。你的选择不是回到从前。
ALLIE: Sometimes the best way to move into the unknown is to take familiar steps, small steps, to do ordinary things to deal with something that is in no way ordinary. We're always going someplace new. All the time. Familiar things just let us pretend that we aren't moving into unfamiliar territory. You take those small, familiar steps, and you try to be honest, not to live as if nothing had changed, but still to go on with your life. But there are times when what you need is a piece of how things used to be.
有时候进入未知领域最好的办法是采取相似是步骤，小的步伐，去用常规的方式解决不常规的问题。我们经常到新的地方，不断的，熟悉的东西只让我们假装我们没有涉足陌生的地方。你采取这些小的、熟悉的方式，你试着诚实一点，别好像什么都被变一样的生活，而是继续你的生活。但是有时候你需要的是事情曾经的样子。
ALLIE: My mum says that life is like a roller-coaster ride. There are ups and downs; there are big scares and slow builds and places Where it levels out. The only difference with this roller coaster is that every time it stops, you get off in someplace totally different From Where you got on.
妈妈说胜过就想过山车。有起有落，有时很吓人，也有缓慢的地方和平整的地方。唯一的不同是过山车每次停下来的时候，你下车的地方和上车的地方根本就不一样。
ALLIE: If a dream is just a dream, something that happens in your mind while you're asleep, then that's all right. It's yours to take with you into the morning, and it fades away there in the light. But when the dreams start to come while you're awake and they come with the light, then that is not all right. What we look for then is other people who have dreamed what we've dreamed. Who have seen what we've seen. When the dreams become real, sometimes the only comfort you can find is in knowing that you're not alone.
如果梦仅仅是梦，那些你睡觉时发生在你脑海中的事情，那就没什么。那是你带到早晨的东西，在阳光中消褪。但是当梦开始在你醒着的时候出现时，那就不对了。我们所寻找的便是梦见我们所梦的人，看见我们所见的人。当梦境成为真实，有时你可以找到的唯一的安慰就是发现你不是一个人。
ALLIE: When you've done something that you can't take back, something that you don't understand, you start to hold tightly to the things you do understand, and you try to make sense out of everything you can. Because if you believed that all you had to do to make things right was to find a reason, but what happens when you find the reasons and they are not your own? How do you find any comfort or any sense in that?
当你做了你不能还原的事情，那些你不明白的事情，你开始紧握住你懂得的事情，尽你所能去了解一切。因为如果你相信所有你要做的就是去找到原因，但是当你找到原因时发现不是自己的时会发生什么呢？你怎样在其中找到安慰或者感觉呢？
ALLIE: People believe what they want to believe. They find meaning Where they can, and they cling to it. In the end, it really doesn’t matter what’s a trick and what’s true. What matters is that people believe.
人们相信他们想相信的东西。他们发现他们能发现的意义，并且坚持。最后，什么是真什么是假都不重要了，重要的是人们相信什么。
ALLIE: Is every moment of our lives built into us before we're born? If it is, does that make us less responsible for the things we do, or is the responsibility built in, too? After you hit the ball, do you stand and wait to see if it goes out, or do you start running and let nature take its course?
我们命中的一切都是生前就注定的吗？如果是的，这减轻了我们对我们所做事情的责任，或者说责任也是注定的。你击球之后，你会站着看它有没有打出去吗，还是你开始奔跑让自然来解决？
ALLIE: Most of the fights people have are about something simple-- you want something the other person has, or maybe they're afraid you're going to want it, and they go after you first. People always think that if they win, then that's the end. Everything will be all right From then on. But everything changes, and tomorrow, the thing you were fighting for will just be a memory. Like everything else, it's already happened.
人们大部分斗争的原因是简单的——你想要别人的东西，或者他们害怕你想要，他们就紧随你。人们总想如果他们赢了就结束了，那是所有事情都会变好。但是一切都在变化，明天，你曾经为之奋斗的事情只是一个回忆。就像其他的一切，它早就发生过了。
ALLIE: How do you let someone go? How do you understand that that's all right, that everything changes? How do you find a way for that to make you feel good about life instead of breaking your heart? The hardest thing you'll ever learn is how to say good-bye.
你怎样让一个人走？你怎样知道那没问题，一切都在变化？你怎样找到一个让你觉得生活是好的而不是让你心碎的方法?你将学习到最困难的事情是说再见。
ALLIE: I don't know what will happen next. I don't know what I'm going to be, what I'm going to learn, but what I do know is this-- life, all life, is about asking questions. Not about knowing answers. It is wanting to see what's over the next hill that keeps us all going. We have to keep asking questions. Wanting to understand. Even when we know we'll never find the answers, we have to keep on asking the questions.
我不知道下次会发生什么，我不知道我将来是什么样子，我将要懂得什么，但我知道的是——生命，所有的生命，都是提出问题，而不是知道答案。正是想知道山那边是什么让我们一直前进。我们一直提出问题，想要明白，即使当我们知道我们永远得不到答案时，我们还是得继续提出问题。
ALLIE: There's a feeling you get sometimes in a bad dreams you’re running and something dark and big is chasing you and you want to just stop to let the dark, big thing catch up with you. Something bad is going to happen, you can't change that, but you can turn and see it coming. You can see the face of your bad dream.
有时你在噩梦里会有一种感觉，你跑啊跑，有些又黑又大的东西追逐你，你只想停下来让那又黑又大的东西追上你。不好的事情发生，你不能改变，但你可以回过来看它的到来。你可以看见你噩梦的的面目。
ALLIE: People talk a lot as if the most important thing in life is to always see things for what they really are. But everything we do, every plan we make is kind of a lie. We're closing our eyes and pretending the day won’t ever come when we won’t need to make any more plans. Hope is the biggest lie there is, and it is the best. You have to keep going as if it all mattered, or else we wouldn't keep going at all.
人们说的那么多就好像人生最重要的就是事情的本来面目。但是我们做的所有事情，我们制定的所有计划都是某种谎言，
ALLIE: People are lonely in this world for lots of different reasons. Some people have something in their disposition. Maybe they were just born too mean, or maybe they were born too tender. But most people are brought to Where they are by circumstance, by calamity or a broken heart or something else happening in their lives that weren’t anything they planned on. People are lonely in this world for lots of different reasons. The one thing that I do know is, it doesn't matter what any one of them might tell you--nobody wants to be alone.
人们由于种种原因都寂寞的生活在这个世界上。一些人命中注定许多东西，可能他们生于贫瘠的家庭，或者他们生来非常软弱。但是大多数人都有自己的境况，灾难、破碎的心或者一些其它他们没有预料到的不幸。人们孤独的生活在这个世界上有许多原因。我知道一件事的就是，无论人们告诉你什么，没有人愿意孤单。
ALLIE: Some people have given up all hope of anything in their lives every changing. They just go on with it day by day, and if something were to come along and make things different they probably wouldn't even notice it right off, except for that kind of nervous feeling you get in your stomach. My mom and I used to call that "the car trip feeling", because it was how I'd feel whenever I knew we were going to go someWhere far away or something new.
一些人们放弃生命中的所有希望，所有变化。他们仅仅是日复一日的过活着，如果一些事情随之发生，并且让事情变得不同，他们可能根本不会立刻注意到，除非是心中不安的感觉。我妈妈和我常称它是“驾车旅行的感觉”，因为这是无论何时我们要去远方或者探索新的事物的感受。
ALLIE: Everyone knows not to stare into the sun. It’s something your mother tells you when you’re a kid. “Don’t look at the sun or you’ll go blind.” But sometimes you want to understand something so badly that you’ll risk going blind for just a glimpse of what it all might be about.
每个人都知道不要凝视太阳。这是一些当你还是孩子时妈妈告诉你的。不要看太阳，否则你会瞎的。但是有时当你希望了解一些不好的东西，你会冒着变瞎的危险瞥一眼，看看到底是怎样的。
ALLIE: My father liked to say that there were these things in life that didn't make any sense, and they could never make any sense, and if you were anyWhere near smart, you knew that. But your job was not to give up, to keep on trying to make sense out of them anyway, trying to understand things that could never be understood. I guess maybe people will always find different names for their answers, but the one thing is, their questions will always be the same.
我父亲喜欢说生命中有这些事情根本没有意义，并且永远不会有任何意义，只要你还算聪明，你就应该明白。但是不要放弃工作，无论如何试图让你工作的有意义，去搞明白永远不懂的东西。我猜人们可能总会寻找各种不同答案的名字，但是有一件事，他们的问题总是相同的。
ALLIE: I don't know what will happen next. I don't know what I'm going to be, what I'm going to learn, but what I do know is this—life, all life, is about asking questions, not about knowing answers. It is wanting to see what's over the next hill that keeps us all going. We have to keep asking questions, wanting to understand. Even when we know we'll never find the answers, we have to keep on asking the questions.
我不知道下次会发生什么，我不知道我将来是什么样子，我将要懂得什么，但我知道的是所有的生命都与提问题有关，不与知道答案相关。那是想知道山后面是什么让我们一直前进。我们得一直问问题，期望了解即使我们知道根本不能找到答案，我们还得继续提出问题。
ALLIE: My mother always talked to me a lot about the sky. She liked to watch the clouds in the day and the stars at night, especially the stars. We would play a game sometimes; a game called "What's Beyond the Sky?" We would imagine darkness or a blinding light or something else that we didn't know how to name. But of course, that was just a game. There's nothing beyond the sky. The sky just is, and it goes on and on, and we play all of our games beneath it.
我妈妈总是给我说很多关于天空的事。她喜欢看白天的云彩和晚上的星星，特别是星星。我们有时会玩游戏，一种叫做“天空外面是什么?”的游戏。我们会想象黑暗，或耀眼的光芒，或其它我们不知道如何命名的东西，但，当然，那只是个游戏，在天空那边什么也没有。天空就是天空，无穷无尽，我们在它下面玩我们的游戏。
