Unknown is a 2006 American crime-thriller film directed by Colombian filmmaker Simon Brand, starring Jim Caviezel, Greg Kinnear, Bridget Moynahan, Joe Pantoliano, Peter Stormare, and Barry Pepper. It's about a group of men apparently kidnapped and locked in a factory, with no memory of how they arrived there, due to an amnesia-inducing gas. Piecing together information around them, they realize that some were kidnapped and some were the kidnappers. They decide they must work together to figure out how to get away before the gang that captured them returns.Not to be confused with the 2011 Liam Neeson thriller of the same name. | |

Unknown (2006) / int_8ce55ec6 | comment |
Ransom Drop: The kidnappers order the ransom to be stashed in a public locker. Though Police are surveilling the area with cameras, they fail to realize that the locker has no bottom and the ransom fell through into the station's basement where it was picked up. And it's kinda strange that the person dropping the ransom bag wouldn't notice that it fell, eh? Although they couldn't have done much to re-direct the watching police without betraying their presence, if they had. | |

Face–Heel Turn | |
Unknown (2006) / int_af3ea0e3 | comment |
Face–Heel Turn: When the kidnappers enter the building, Bound Guy suddenly realizes that he was one of them, just as he was about to let go of the barrel. He then re-aims the barrel at Jean Jacket but doesn't hit him because of Broken Nose's warning. | |

Tracking Device | |
Unknown (2006) / int_b1c2112 | comment |
Tracking Device: A tracker is planted in the money bag, so Police could track down the kidnappers. They use a cell phone with a Viewer-Friendly Interface showing the target as a red button. However, the kidnappers smelled a rat and dropped the bag underway. | |

I Lied: Line by Broken Nose, when confessing that he manipulated Coles into attacking Jean Jacket. His version of events later turns out to be true nonetheless. | |

Hope Spot: The group manages to attract the boy outside the building which fills them with hope. But then the boy's father ushers him away. The father later reports the incident to the Police, so the effort wasn't entirely wasted. | |

Unspoken Plan Guarantee: The group does some exposition talk, explaining how their ambush plan on the kidnappers is supposed to work. As the rule suggests, it doesn't go as planned. | |

Closed Circle | |
Unknown (2006) / int_e2a6ebc1 | comment |
Closed Circle: The Abandoned Warehouse is a Sealed Room in the Middle of Nowhere, doors are shut tight, windows are made of bullet-proof glass, cell phones are destroyed and the landline connection is cut by Coles.note There was a second red phone in the building which was still working but nobody cared to use it to call for help. Lampshaded by Coles: "Somebody's obviously gone to a lot of expense to secure this." | |

Laser-Guided Amnesia: In the sense that characters regain their memory conveniently in small enough pieces and in the right order so that the whole picture doesn't get figured out until the very end. | |
