This Liam Neeson Movie Is #1 on Netflix—& the Trailer Alone Had Us on the Edge of Our Seat

Originally released in 2011, Unknown follows a man named Dr. Martin Harris (Neeson), who wakes up from a horrible car accident in Berlin and discovers that another man has stolen his identity. Regardless of his efforts, he's unable to convince anyone of who he truly is. To make matters even worse, he also learns that he's being hunted by a team of mysterious assassins.

The movie is based on a 2003 French novel by Didier van Cauwelaert, which was published in English as Out of My Head.

In addition to Neeson, the thriller film stars Diane Kruger as Gina, January Jones as Elizabeth Harris, Aidan Quinn as Martin B and Frank Langella as Professor Rodney Cole. It was directed by Jaume Collet-Serra (known for House of Wax) and produced by Joel Silver, Leonard Goldberg and Andrew Rona.

Sounds like we've got more than enough reasons to add this one to our queue.
