Why did I figured out the plot of the movie at the very beginning......

Rating: 5/10 (5 June 2011)

You know, if you are a big fan of espionage thrillers, don't watch this movie. That's because you will get the entire story figured out about 5 minutes into it.
I watched this film for the sake of Liam Nesson, who was ever impressive as tough guys with a tough voice. This is especially true in movies like Taken. When I first had my eyes on Unknown's poster, I had the feeling of Dejavu. But, since everything resembles Taken, that's not entirely a bad thing, right? Then I went into it expecting some bad-ass actions and a solid story. At the Berlin airport, when Liam Nesson's "wife" mockingly said the line "giving the speech, seriously?" I got the whole plot worked out. It's kinda sad to see how much your mindset is as clichéd as Hollywood wants you to be.
Then the entire movie played out as I expected. It almost seemed like the writer jumped out near the end saying, "aha! You must haven't figured out some minor twists even if you worked out the main twist." And I said like, "That's exactly the kind of little twists I was expecting, and do you have any more tricks up your sleeve?" Man, Liam Nesson in Taken was so cool, but in this one he's just like a little girl imitating Jason Bourne. If they could only smooth up some ridiculous romance and unconvincing character development, the movie would be more watchable. It must be a luxury compared to the budget of the film......
Although, Unknown was so devastatingly clichéd that it might inspire so many great parodies. Wait for those genius on the web to do so.
5/10.
