Review of Unknown

Unknown (I) (2011)
7/10
Fun surprise plot twist otherwise ...
5 August 2011
Neeson as always, gives us a good performance - supporting characters are average to good with some thugs being B film quality. The photography is pretty bad, dark places designed to give you a feeling of suffocation or claustrophobia, blurred action designed to give you a feel of movement but all combines for just poor cinematography (imo) Gets draggy and boring in the earlier stages of the film but the action picks up midway with some scenes being longer than needed to make a point. Chases and fights too long but good action otherwise.

Good mystery line that I thought could have been played on much much better with better screen writing but overall, a good way to kill a few hours if you have absolutely nothing better to do - certainly not a waste of time if you've already watched everything else on your "need to see" list. I love the plot twist -
