Unknown (2006)


Unknown
The Good:
Although this movie is compared in a few places to the vomit-inducing film Cube, it takes the good ideas of Cube and executes them in a much more masterful way (ie people trapped in a place without memory of how they got there).
The acting was pretty good.
The dropped hints and little bits of information keep you pulled into the plot.
Nice twists.

The Bad
:
Nothing in the film is really all that original, just done well.
The story that takes place outside the warehouse, is not nearly as interesting as the action and drama inside the warehouse. I kept wanting it to get back to the warehouse.

Overall: So much better than House of 9 or Cube, which are both along the same lines. It is definitely worth a watch, don't go out of your way, but do pick it up sometime.
