Unknown Reviews
San Francisco Chronicle
Ruthe Stein
Unknown is far from unwatchable, just undistinguished.
Seattle Times
Jeff Shannon
There's a good little thriller lurking somewhere in the depths of "Unknown," but it never quite rises to the surface.
AV Club
Tasha Robinson
Unknown comes across more like an amateur stage play, mechanically working through the obligatory three acts toward the obligatory twist ending.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
You wish some of the plot holes had been spackled better.
Chicago Sun-Times
Bill Stamets
Gritty, gimmicky.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
While Brand manages a couple of effectively brutal bits of violence, Matthew Waynee's gassy screenplay is all premise and no propulsion.
Houston Chronicle
Bruce Westbrook
It's a good gimmick, but still a gimmick, and we're left with more confusion than tension.
Los Angeles Times
Sam Adams
The movie's disinterest in character might be forgivable were its plot not riddled with holes.
New York Post
Kyle Smith
To kill 80 minutes, the movie has to pad itself with several dull speeches and stagy moments.
New York Daily News
Jack Mathews
It all comes together at the end, logically and with a twist. But it's not a game that allows the audience to play along.
New York Times
Laura Kern
Brisk pacing and an excellent cast of mostly B-list actors can't make up for the commonplace premise and execution of Simon Brand's twisty thriller Unknown.
Newsday
Gene Seymour
It's not nearly as risky or as inspired as the movies it borrows from. But it keeps its audience's collective head in the game, thanks in large part to an impressive cast enacting the sometimes ludicrous proceedings with conviction.
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
The cesspool around the Saw franchise has spilled into the Indiewood projects not far from where first-time director Simon Brand fires off this Hollywood calling card.
Washington Post
Ann Hornaday
A nifty little psychological crime thriller that suggests a Treasure of the Sierra Madre for the postindustrial age.
Ebert & Roeper
Richard Roeper
The performances are uniformly excellent, and Brand relies on his music video training to provide some tantalizing flashback clues.
Variety
Ronnie Scheib
Tyro video helmer Simon Brand doesn't give his actors sufficient breathing room, ruthlessly chopping their scenes into monotonous hash.
Salon.com
Andrew O'Hehir
Once the paranoid surrealism of the opening scenes begins to fade, so does the film's inherent interest level.
Village Voice
Jean Oppenheimer
The pacing is slightly off, with the action switching between the imprisoned men and the police who are trying to find them, and what should be a mounting sense of urgency inside the warehouse (think Reservoir Dogs) falters and goes slack.
The Hollywood Reporter
Richard James Havis
The result is passable, though it's clear that his forte lies elsewhere.
