Taken has a lot to answer for. Without it, I doubt we'd see quite as much of Neeson striding across our screens as a not-quite everyman trying to puzzle his way through a succession of action thrillers. Unknown is perhaps better than most as it see the big fella try to figure out why his identity has been stolen or has it?
This euro-thriller feels distinctly Hitchcockian (although thankfully faster paced) with its many twists, turns and gasp worthy reveals. Neeson does a sturdy job as always while Jones, Ganz and Langella provide unconventionally cast but equally acceptable support.
Verdict: A good popcorn chomper.
