There's a South Korean psychological thriller on Netflix that deserves your attention: Forgotten.

I will keep this little review as short and vague as possible, since I really think you should go blind into Forgotten.

Visually stunning, well-paced, extremely uneasy, beautifully scored and fantastically acted, Forgotten is definitely among my favourite thriller films... ever!

Very simply put, it tells the story of a regular family moving to a new house, something feels odd from the very beginning and, as soon as the story starts to unfold, it's one twist after the other. Forgotten is unsettling, depressing, compelling and features awesome characters, all of the extremely well written by writer/director Hang-jun Zhang (whose last film came out 15 years ago!).

If you haven't seen it yet... just go on Netflix and watch it asap.

Maybe what you read about the plot is not enough to attract your attention. But as the minutes pass, what seemed to be a drama becomes much more. The plot has twists and we just can't stop watching. I highly recommend it!

Short and sweet; I love me my Korean thrillers. This was a good one. Great for the first hour, had no idea where it was going. The last hour became a little more convoluted than it needed to be. Common in these films to keep layering on the connected relationships but the last hour just wasn't as strong as the set-up. Def worth watching.

Saw this on netflix. Saw the trailer and immediately watched it. After watching it. Wow. Did not expect this film to be this good. The film is tragic beyond words. It's hard to talk much without spoiling anything. Performances, writing, direction were all great! Definitely a must see!
