Terrific Mystery Thriller

Rating: 10/10 (26 June 2011)

Dr. Martin Harris (Neeson) goes back to the airport to retrieve his brief case while Elizabeth (Jones) his wife checks into the hotel in Berlin, Germany. On the way to the airport, he is in a car accident, leaves the hospital and goes to his wife who says she doesn't know who he is and her husband (Quinn), the other Dr. Martin Harris, is right there beside her and he can prove he is the real Dr. Martin Harris. Confused? Hey, we all were.
I don't think you will figure this one out. But, I will tell you one thing to help: there was a snippet of a conversation between the Martin we know and Elizabeth that may tell you what is going on ..but only somewhat  and not all. I cannot relate that snippet to you for then you would knowwell, almost know, but not all. Now, after watching the movie, I remembered that snippet and that should have told me something, but it didn't at the time. But, now that snippet makes sense. Of course, you just might stumble onto that snippet. HA!
Wait a minute, there were two snippets. Two. OMG.
I don't believe you will know "all" before "all" is revealed near the end of the movie, but anything is possible. Hey, I'm pulling for you.
When I did find out the truth of "all" it took me by surprise. I had no clue. Along with very good suspense, and tension throughout and not knowing what was going on, I'd say this was a terrific thriller. No, it is better than that, it is a terrific mystery thriller.
I kept thinking, like the Martin we know, as to how he can prove he is who he says he is. You may do the same. I was as lost as the Martin we know. You may be too. Like I said, there is mystery to all of this. And, isn't it about time we had a little mystery in these thrillers? Good job. No, terrific job.
I don't think CGI was used as the car stunts looked too real for me. They were fantastic. You think you've seen car chases? Not like this one. Kudos to the stunt people.
