User Review
unknown and unexpected
Rating: 8/10
I usually am disappointed in psychological thrillers - typically the
twist at the end never lives up to the hype. It was a wonderful
surprise that this one failed to let me down at the end. Although the
film is slow at times, there are numerous twists and turns so you don't
have to wait until the end for all of the excitement.
Unknown is a great movie that keeps the viewer trying to stay one step
ahead through the collective confusion. Caviezel and Peppers gave
strong and engaging performances. Kinnear skillfully draws both dislike
and sympathy. Stormare is a great character actor and perfectly cast
for the role.
I agree with other viewers the lighting was dim and depressing but I
would give a good guess that this was intentional. Certainly the movie
would not have "felt" the same otherwise.
