"Too many questions and car chases keep this one near the middle of the road."

Liam Neeson has proven through the years that he is one of the most likeable actors working in film today, that he has the power to take a scene and to wrap it around viewers until they are totally caught up in a riveting performance without even realizing it. Few of those skills seem to have been put to use for “Unknown,” however. The movie might as well be called “The Sequel to Taken.” Perhaps it would have been given that name if not for the lack of any link between the two films other than Neeson’s consistent portrayal of a tough man in charge who finds himself thrown into situations that are spinning uncharacteristically out of his control.
