This second movie probably was just building on Taken hype or whatever. It seems Liam Neeson is doing like 30 action movies a year.
Albanians are the new kids on the block and they are vicious because they're hungrier than the more established gangs. We don't have a huge presence in the criminal underworld numbers wise but from what I've read they were able to out muscle one of the Italian families in Astoria. I read an article about an Italian mafioso many years ago who was describing his dealings with various ethnic gangs and he said the Polish were the best to deal with and the Albanians were the worst. The only way to deal with Albanians is kill them otherwise you're going to get fucked at some point, you can't reason with them. I think the Albanians are making a name in England which might explain these recent movies. Hyena is the latest one.
Lastly, we are an easy target. Using Arabs is not politically correct and I think Eastern Europeans are the latest "thug" group in Hollywood and we're at the top of that group along with the Russians.
