Action Action Action....very watchable!

Rating: 8/10 (12 February 2012)

Like they say...If you enjoyed Taken, then you will enjoy this movie. The trailer left me highly intrigued to see this movie as I thought the storyline would have to include a rather good twist in order to make this movie successful. I thought it was great from start to finish and of course, Liam Neeson makes this movie. From the beginning, it gets the audience involved and then leaves them blank with so many unanswered questions in a highly interesting way, just leaving you glued to the screen to see how it all uncovers. When the movie get's started, it kind of almost leaves you confused just as much as the character which was brilliant as it really puts you in Liam Neesons' shoes. The film does indeed get the audience to ask 'What the possible twist could be?' as there is no hint or suggestion that it would be a typical solution. We follow Neeson, uncovering the answers to all the audience's questions and I must say that I was impressed with the storyline behind 'Unknown'. I thought it was very unique and was definitely directed in the best way. The script was very well written, capturing the atmosphere in the scenes perfectly. All characters were cast well and definitely had the right 'look' for their roles. Highly action packed from start to finish, Many twists and character roles leave you with an unexpected surprise which really adds the element of excitement to the film. The audience in some parts may think that they know how this story is going to play out...but more twists pop up leaving the audience highly engaged. I did think that the ending to this movie would be far fetched and typical. But no, really well done and definitely gets audience appreciation. Thumbs up, highly watchable and highly recommended.
