Unknown - Watch Legally and Safely

Unknown

Release Date: February 17, 2011
Year: 2011
Runtime:113 min
IMDb Rating:

A man awakens from a coma, only to discover that someone has taken on his identity and that no one, (not even his wife), believes him. With the help of a young woman, he sets out to prove who he is. Good movie. The plot seemed similar to Arnold Schwarzenegger's 1990 science - fiction action movie, Total Recall. If you were to change sci-fi action thriller to foreign intrigued mystery action thriller, change locations, Mars to Berlin, change Ronny Cox to Frank Langella, change free oxygen for all on Mars to lower cost corn development on Earth and change revolutionary hero, Quato to revolutionary scientist, Dr. Bessler. Total Recall was made nearly 20 years ago, many people may never have seen it or forgot about it. Retelling a story in Hollywood is nothing new in order to gain a contemporary audience. Maybe I'm wrong about the similarities, yet on it's own, Unknown is a very good action movie thriller and Liam Neeson has successfully step into action adventure characters with vengeance.

How to Watch Unknown Legally and Safely

If you want to stream Unknown through reputable and legal services, there are a few good options depending on where you are. Subscription platforms like HBO Max, Disney+, Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and Apple TV+ sometimes carry Unknown films or related DC titles—though availability depends on your country.

If you’d rather not commit to a subscription, there are ad‑supported, free (but legal) platforms such as Tubi, Pluto TV, Peacock or Crackle (where available in your region) that occasionally host superhero films.

Lastly, don’t forget about library‑linked streaming options like Kanopy or Hoopla (if your library or university is registered), and official uploads by film distributors on YouTube—these can also give you legal access to classic movies.
