YMMV / Unknown (2011)

• Ensemble Dark Horse: Bruno Ganz as Jurgen steals the movie and swallows it whole for breakfast. With tea.
• Fridge Logic: How could someone maintain a fake identity as a university professor for so long, when it would be easy for anyone with an Internet connection (like Bressler) to discover that the university had no such person on their faculty?
  • But then the hotel security actually found "Martin B"'s photo on the Langemore University site. One could only assume that the university sysadmins were celebrating Thanksgivings Day a bit too hard.
• Moral Event Horizon:
  • The assassins see their target has brought his children (about 6 and 8) to the party they intend to blow up. They don't even flinch.
  • And later, after their original plan got derailed, one of the assassins intends to stab him in the back, right in front of his kids!
• Paranoia Fuel: Could you, in a strange country for the first time, have your identity stolen and your wife deny your existence just as Martin had? Some Nightmare Retardant: You couldn't. Unlike in the film, the embassy would be open over Thanksgiving and would have evidence in your favor.
