I won't go into the plot because it is already posted on the IMDb page and that makes a boring review. I'm also not going to spoil it for you, but what I will tell you is this.. I watch mainly independent and foreign films because mainstream Hollywood is too predictable and repetitive. I found this film to be very original, I could not predict it at all. That alone made it worth the watch for me.

I guess you would call it a drama, but it had a very creepy feel which kept me intrigued. It did have a slow start and you only see three people throughout the entire movie, but there is still plenty of dialogue. What I didn't like is that I felt right when it was hitting its best moments it ended. This obviously means it did leave a couple of unanswered questions which was slightly disappointing. Nonetheless, it's very hard to find an original movie these days and these one gets points for that. We've Forgotten More Than We Ever Knew is definitely worth a watch. It's only around 88 minutes so what do you have to lose?

I've never seen a movie quite like this. It's deep and hard to figure out but is a descent film. I will warn you that if hearing people chew and other poor table manners bothers you than be warned.

Post apocalypse? Parallel universe? Someone's derangement played out on screen? The movie is slow, and doesn't have much of a story. We're never quite sure what's going on, or what it's supposed to be. The characters are confusing (the pool guy, especially.) What exactly this is seems to be very open to interpretation, which is only slightly charming. That with the performances and cinematography keep it from being completely unwatchable, but if I had to do it over, I would probably pass this one by.

Just gonna leave this here:

• If you do not care about a movie being left totally unexplained in the end, go for it.
• There are things that happen in the movie that you are like "oh ok, this is either a sci-fi movie, or one of the characters is having a dream".
• But then you are left totally without explanation at the end of the movie.
• I'm sorry, but coming up with a "dream-like" story is really easy. Giving it a plausible explanation in the end is where the challenge is.
• And in the end this movie is left exactly like this.
• Totally unexplained.
• I Consider it a fail.

Unfortunately, this attempt at something creatively and emotional brilliant never succeeds. The audience is instead bombarded at the start with too many puzzling questions: Cannot snow be melted for fresh water? Cannot deer tracks be followed instead of running after a live animal to find water? What smoke makes one cough? A woman not noticing someone missing? Tall structures that are not able to be seen? An impossible search "everywhere" in so short a time? Instead of enjoying and experiencing the movie, the audience is stuck in their heads wondering "why the inconsistencies?" at the start. While the screenwriters attempt to offer one answer to the fascinating existential question of what is "home?" they really never succeed to offering up much more than a boringly tantalizing taste. Instead we get questions about eating customs and practices, disjointed relational continuity between a man and woman. Often one scene relational interaction does not always seem to flow into another. There are unclear personal motivations of the characters and scenes that seem to cut away too soon without helpful temporary resolutions. There is the unlikely absence of important communication of experiences between this man and woman especially considering they have supposedly spent surviving in the wilderness for years together. Ultimately this movie offers only a hodgepodge of "supposedly" interesting incidents with little understanding or connectivity and mostly unexplainable behavior even the strange reaction to artificial light. Unfortunately, the script writers know so much more or maybe known nothing about what is really going on or struggling to. The audience, most of them, will most likely only experience confusion and bewilderment as to the motivations and the odd reactions that the characters display as if the script writers were hoping for more from their apparently supposedly different, strange occurrences. One is reminded of a similar but more effective thought piece found in Season Two of Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "The Royal" (1989) where Worf, Data and Riker find themselves trapped in a recreation of a poorly written novel. This movie is not really worth watching hoping for some wonderous revelation or reveal.

The story of lovers and troubled minds. Some relationships thrive in adversity others wither and die. Jealousy, selfishness, these two emotions can destroy any relationship within moments. However, if you have nothing else, no where to go, no where to hide, then you have to do with what you have, like it or not. A relationship can be an endurance race with no end in sight, depressing.

The Sci-Fi angle made the story more bearable and allowed me to construct an alternative story that ran parallel to the actual story. It's up to the viewer to make the story work, so if you're up for it give it a watch.

The plot of the film could probably be written on less than one page. It's very slow. Despite, or perhaps because of that, what does unfold on the screen is strangely upsetting. The film is definitely thematic and is seeking answers to what end up being very complex questions, and it wasn't until I saw this movie that I fully realized that the more plot there is unfolding on the screen, the harder it is to engage the audience in the asking of these questions. Examinations of the way human souls interact with each other are difficult enough when there's just a single question without more action raising more questions. The things that this film makes you think about, you can think about them for hours, probably days, and although many will be put off by the lack of action and plot, and others will be put off by how uncomfortable the answers to these questions make us, it is still a very interesting watch for the thinking sci-fi fan.

Although I want to say that the film seems ultimately to be about the difficulty of not only connecting with another person, but maintaining that connection, there is certainly another level, perhaps about how easy it can be to be lonely without being "alone." Why are human beings more comfortable interacting with inanimate objects than with each other? Is it just because those things can't contradict us or challenge us?

While the film wasn't what I would call entertaining, and while I can scarcely imagine who I would recommend it to, I appreciate that it has made me ask so many questions and that I'm still finding new questions to ask, not about the film and the bizarre things happening in it, necessarily, but about our species in general.

I've been more entertained clipping my toenails. This is a seriously boring movie. Call it a metaphor call it a thinking movie but either way it's boring as hell.

Meaningfully deep, and deeply meaningful. A man and a woman. And a mannequin. They are in danger. Then, they are not. But all is not well. And the movie, although deeply deep, and meaningfully meaningful, is deeply boring after the first half. Seen on Tubi, the free streaming site, where many low-budget indies, foreign films, older theater films, B movies, and box office flops, go to die.

I'll start by saying I can't really add anything that hasn't already been written by other reviewers, so I won't.

Close to halfway through, I stopped the movie and started it from the beginning. I knew about 20 mins into it that the movie wasn't exactly what I thought it was going to be and wanted to re-watch the beginning with that in mind. There's a lot to unravel with the multitude of metaphors, symbolization of certain objects, as well as the character's actions, and reactions.

I'll leave it at that, (no spoilers) and just encourage you to watch this with an open mind and an understanding heart.

Action fans are not going to like this. It's all about the disappointment you'd have if everyone else was dead. But you don't change your relationship habits. The story is surreal, but it's an allegory.If somebody keeps telling you what you want to hear,you'll probably think it's the truth.

Possibly seen an interpretations of the story about Adam and Eve geing expelled from paradise.

My interpretation of this film is that it explores the subjective nature of reality. Where we are going, and where we came from are stories that we tell ourselves. Our stories are how we make sense of the world and form our reality. This idea holds throughout the film as a guiding principle. Everything the characters experienced is filtered through their own interpretation and point of view. This movie begins with the characters living off the land in very harsh circumstances. They dream of a better life which manifests before them, but it is not perfect. It is still cold, there is no ocean and no rain. It ends with a new dream, a new story that is full of promise and hope. The characters are heartened by this hope of a better life, which motivates them to once again move on in pursuit of their dream. Even the weather is holds more promise for their new quest. The film's final scene tells us the main message of this film, "Change your story, and you change your reality."

Put simply this movie is a story about a forgotten story and the interim of trying to piece things together before they go looking for answers again. You know, like relationships that seemed so right and went wrong. The acting was great. The plot was intriguing. I gave it 6 for that reason. It's lacking 4 because the ending lacked closure in so many ways.

There's something about this film, something that feels like home. It's hard to explain, like a writing you can't decipher. Like sitting near a fireplace and listening to old songs. Everything was just very on point, the acting, the characters, cinematography, the pacing. And it definitely is sci-fi, there might not be lasers or space ships, but it's sci-fi in the primal sense. And if you love sci-fi and aren't afraid to experiment, you'll probably like it as well.

This film is an artful take on relationships. If you are looking for clear answers, action or a fast pace, do not watch this film. If you are looking for an intriguing and thoughtfully "romantic" film, then this is the one for you. Beautifully shot, with great performances by all involved. A slow burn that never feels slow. A hypnotizing and intoxicating brain tease. Glad I watched.

If you look up Liberty, NY, the filming location of this movie you will see it is in the Catskill Mountains and that may very well mean this was filmed in one of the abandoned Borscht Belt hotels, but I could be wrong on that. If true that is pretty interesting in and of itself. I think there are some great scenes that take full advantage of the filming locations and good for the crew/director for making use of that. The evolution of the story is slow, and it does not end with a bang. That's OK with me. I appreciate this movie for what it is, it's not predictable and that's cool.
