Film Review: "Unknown"

Synopsis: Dr. Martin Harris awakens after a car accident in Berlin to discover that his wife suddenly doesn't recognize him and another man has assumed his identity.

Review: Once again, Liam Neeson delivers in this great suspense film!! Critics are saying that this is "the Bourne Identity meets Taken." I see this movie as it's own film."Unknown" is engaging, and better directed than you'd expect coming from director Jaume Collet-Serra ("House of Wax," "Orphan"). He and cinematographer Flavio Labiano make Berlin in wintertime as glamorous as that sounds. No, I kid, Berlin. But each suspicious glance, every chilly, gray, sunless interior adds to the menace. The movie plays an effective guessing game. The supporting players include Bruno Ganz as an ex-Stasi agent and Frank Langella as Harris' botany colleague from the states. The movie is all about its plot, and about a corkscrew storytelling development late in the game that will either work for you or won't.
