Unknown

Loved this movie! The drama is so intense, it takes you in a wild ride. I loved all the performances from all the actors! Keeps you guessing who is who, who is friend who is foe, and the ending will blow your mind. It was well worth the money. Jim Caviezel, Barry Pepper and Greg Kinnear were phenomenal.

Five guys wake up with amnesia (or short-term memory loss) in a remote abandoned factory with locked doors and barred windows. Trouble is, one of the guys was shot and handcuffed, another has his nose broken and another is tied to a chair. There was obviously a fight, but no one knows who they themselves are, much less who anyone else is. And so it begins.(FYI [and nothing is being given away here], the mass amnesia was caused by an industrial gas that leaked into the factory.)Jim Caviezel, Barry Pepper, Joe Pantoliano, Jeremy Sisto and Greg Kinnear play the five men in the factory and they all do a great job. Bridget Moynahan and Peter Stormare round out the cast, fleshing out story elements on the "outside.""Unknown" is an obscure, high-quality movie with an all-star cast and decent script that makes you wonder why it didn't get more press or business. Frankly, it's a more intelligent and better crafted film than many of Hollywood's more popular products. While it may not be "Memento" grade, it certainly comes close.

This movie was simply not worth it for the nearly constant cussing, especially f bombs. It TOTALLY ruined it, for me. Would not recommend. Nothing special at all. Disappointed because I like all the actors that starred in it. They didn't pull it off on this one though.

Great story line. So many twists and such tension. I was kept guessing who was with which other one . The flash backs were fast and revieled just enough to send you off in another direction. I had several plots figured when it would show another bit of information that would wipe out that plot and take off in another direction....I really enjoyed this type of story telling. I had to scoot my seat closer to the TV to make sure I didn't miss anything. As much as I liked it ,it left you hanging at the end.Just a few minutes more and it would have been perfect.

This movie has a very startling beginning. Can you imagine waking up in an unfamiliar location one day, feeling like you were hit over the head with a steel pipe, and not know who you are or why you're there? Imagine also being locked up in this place with a few other people who are scattered across the room just as bloodied and beaten up as you are. To me, it doesn't get much more frightening than this, and so you'll find yourself immediately intrigued and thrilled to find out what will happen to these characters next. Of course, after the first hour of the same questions being asked over and over again, you may find yourself a bit bored and just wondering outloud, "let's get to the point already!" Very memorable performance by Greg Kinnear here, with excellent acting from Jim Caviezel and Barry Pepper as well. And when the movie DOES get to the last 15 minutes, you will find yourself even more excited than you were in the first 15 minutes. It does take awhile to get there (even though this film isn't very long), but it is well worth the wait. I think some may find this movie a worthy purchase, and others a memorable rental. I purchased the movie and am happy enough, but had I seen it in theatres I may not have gone out to buy the DVD. But since this movie was only shown in a few theatres (I think 10) across the country, I never had the opportunity.Definitely check this movie out. It's worth watching for the incredible cast! I'm still surprised this didn't get more recognition with the kind of star-power it had going for it; not to mention it's far better than most of the poor excuses for movies the theatres release lately...

Loved the movie...I love guessing who are the good guys and the bad...Great acting. Jim Caviezel is the best actor. I love him!
