Finally got round to watching it.
Liam Neeson great as always, the story and twist in the tale are very good.
[spoiler]The plot does resemble Bourne in that Neeson loses his memory, finds out he was one of the baddies and his id ( the person he thinks he is ) is fake, but far less action, and more mis-direction, I honestly fell for the idea that his wife was real and being coerced, never even considered that he was an assassin until an hour into the movie. To support this mis-direction the action suffered as Neeson stayed in the fake id character without covert/fighting skills until very near the end.
Sadly though the other characters were lame, and it was a bit slow, so dont expect another Taken, and no where near as good as Bourne or others in the genre.[/spoiler]
Mezz says well worth watching, 7/10

Re: Unknown
I agree with the above, and it resembles two movies.
Taken and the Bourne Identity. Both great movies, but I enjoyed this one.
[spoiler]I just wish there was more background information on him. I am quite curious about this 'organization' he worked for.[/spoiler]

Re: Unknown
you might've also heard of him in star wars episode I. He played a rather important jedi master there... Not the ultimate badass there, we'd say...

The performances of Liam Neeson and Ewan McGregor were the only things that made the new CGIWars bearable, but Liam's done a lot more than just that,
Nell
Gangs of New York
Batman
ATeam
K19
Those are just the ones I can remember off the op of my head, sure he has done tons of over good movies.
