Unknown is good, but not great. It's worth a go at the theatre, but if you're expecting Taken, prepare for disappointment.
Liam Neeson is on top, giving a spotless performance. He is becoming more iconic and, therefore, his characters are starting to look the same. Not a bad thing if you're an actor (because you'll get more work and more money), but it can get tiresome for the audience. Fortunately, I'm not one of them. I enjoy Neeson in just about everything I see him in. Good for me and good for him as I'm sure the majority of movie-goers would agree.
Unknown is all three Bourne movies tied up in one. It's great for those that don't have the patience for a long wrap-up. There is a lot of detective work and very little action; however, when there is action, it is good, including a hair-raising car chase. The ending is weak, but hey, it's Hollywood. When was the last time you saw a great ending? Unknown is worth 8-9 bucks. Just be glad there isn't a 3D version for you to pay $15 for.
