The people trapped in room trying figure out how they got there has been done a numberous times with both the Cube and Saw series. This does give it a more tricky situation when the men try to figure out who is hostage and who is kidnapper. Although not that difficult to figure out it does have a twist I didn't see coming and another one that just seemed silly and unnessecary.

Interesting concept, doesn't quite round itself off well enough. Even though there is a minor additional twist it could have benefited from more mystery.

Good, not great, but good. Honestly it doesn't feel like Memento at all, as the story is linear in progression with flashbacks. All the characters feel pretty well thought out and, thankfully, the paranoia they all feel seems more sensible than a lot of other "room of people with no memory of how they got there" movies. I liked it.

Yeah it's kind of standard and not that great, but it's still an interesting film with a bit of mystery and character work as these people wake up not knowing who they are and they have to figure out who are the good guys and who are the bad guys. The resolution of the mystery isn't that great, but i liked the ending.

First 40 minutes is as good as it gets. Great cast, mystery. Little by little it went little down but still nice twist at the end and overall very good movie.

Promising start, but unremarkable in the end.

This non-linear amnesiac puzzle thriller flaunts a gifted cast---though Joey Pants is seriously underused, where he could've added far more presence than other more prominent figures on screen---and is structured with the cliffhanging urge of a constant white-knuckler, so even if it gets too zig-zaggy and tangled, you're still invested in learning the answers to the questions.

The mystery room plot with twists upon twists. Nothing really new and nothing that exciting.

A competent thriller, not remarkable but a pretty decent to good flick that lets the actors shine, or dull in one case.

Flawed at times, Unknown is a decent thriller thanks to the right cast that works together well. Although i'll admit that it was mediocre at times, I still found it to be entertaining to watch straight through.

Hmmm. You get the feeling from the off that you'll end up disappointed with this one, and perhaps that expectation is for the best. While the concept is intriguing (although a little 'Saw'-esque), the fact that much of the mystery is unveiled way before the end credits really detracts from the suspense, and throwing in a load of late, increasingly far-fetched plot twists can't do much to save it. Not a bad film though, particularly considering its sub-90 minute runtime.

Well this was thrilling. An hour and 15 minutes of full grown men screaming at each other. Strived to be something it couldn't. The "twist" ending isn't that great, and the acting is not good enough to string this film along. For one thing, Greg Kinnear can't do badass and Joe Pantoliano annoyed the hell out of me. Waste of time.

Interesting idea, but not knowing most of the characters for a large part of the movie, made it difficult to like them, or care about what happens to any of them.

A novel little movie. It has some obvious plot holes in retrospect and it doesn't do a lot with its central idea. It does have some suspense and an ending that isn't entirely predictable. Not a bad time killer overall.

The concept is great, but the final act of the movie is ultimately too Hollywood.

An all right movie that is well put together but lacks mostly any character developement which to a degree derails the movie and keeps it from hitting the levels of similar fare.

Whoever compared this to Memento is way off. The only thing they have in common is Joe Pantoliano. While the movie is revealed through a series of flashbacks, the concept is original in that all of the characters wake up with amnesia and regain their personalities by the movie's end. The unfortunate aspect is it makes none of these guys sympathetic whatsoever. That said, it was well put together and worth a view.

Forgettable. It builds itself up entirely for the twist which isn't all that shocking anyway. Just skip it.
