Then We Take Berlin: Another Liam Neeson Neo-Eurospy Movie!

Actually, I can't really tell from the trailer if the conspiracy in Unknown turns out to have spy overtones or not, but it definitely looks likely.  Either way, this Dark Castle film is clearly capitalizing on Neeson's success in the EuropaCorp neo-Eurospy hit Taken (review here), and after that I'm definitely game to follow the actor back to Europe as he tears up another city–this time, Berlin! (Is he going to threaten to tear down the Reichstag if he has to?) Blondes Diane Kruger and January Jones are the latest Eurospy babes, and Frank Langella rounds out the cast–presumably as a baddie. I'm pretty sure this is the film we heard about earlier that's co-written by John Le Carré's son, although then it was called Unknown White MaleCheck it out:

Looks good! But it is incredible how much the Bourne movies have left a stamp on all action/spy-movies after 2004...
