Remember Me

Remember Me is a haunting story of life and love and I will definitely add it to my collection. The overall tone of the movie is beautiful.

I gave Remember Me a seven out of ten stars because there were some issues with the plot. The movie begins on a solemn note and never truly recovers from it. There are moments in the film where you are left wondering where the story is going. However, the characters are deep and you feel attached to them. There is a lesson to be learned.

Robert Pattinson delivered a terrific performance proving he can do more than play a detached vampire. His character is complex and Pattison was able to make you feel the emotions he was feeling - viewers are able to connect with him. This is the kind of acting that will lead Pattison to leading roles in Oscar-worthy dramas.

Have you ever noticed how some people can teach you life lessons about who you are what you hold dear? Have you ever passed a stranger and wondered what tragedy they've endured in their lifetime? Have you ever asked why me...or better yet, why NOT me?

Life lessons are often the hardest to learn and you never know who's going to be the instructor. Sometimes it's an actual teacher who fulfills that role. Sometimes it's a friend. Sometimes it's a parent. And while you could argue that we really already know deep down the things these instructors reveal to us, it stands to reason that a reminder now and again about who we are and what we hold dear can and should serve as wake up call or guiding light as we navigate our lives.

And this film, well, I think it reinforces that the inner revelations we oftentimes try to ignore, deny, suppress, and trivialize should be recognized. And valued.

Thoughtful and touching, the film resonates after the lights come up. It's been a long time since a film followed me home.

Kudos to the writers and the cast. Well done all around.

I have no idea why people/critics are panning this film. Were we watching the SAME film???

Rob is fantastic in this. He shows true depth, feeling and understanding of this character. The female lead is refreshing.

The film is about love/relationships and family. NOT a romantic comedy so why anyone would complain that it didn't tick the boxes of some pointless romcon i don't know. It never said it WAS a romantic comedy!!! The ending is apt and beautifully done. It wasn't tacky in any shape or form. I commend Rob in choosing to do this film.

Well done mate.

WARNING: although this review has no spoilers in it, it is important that you go to the movie without any info on it if you can help it. Going to this movie naive, made it work for me.

I was at a screening of this movie tonight and wasn't looking forward to seeing it, but, did so to make my wife happy. In the end, it was a totally unexpected, heart rendering, emotional roller coaster ride of a movie. I sit here now a grown man who feels absolutely exhausted, but not from the agony having to watch the movie, but from the bipolar like seesaw of joy/agony/hope/desperation which this movie takes you through.

When I saw the guy from the vampire flicks, I expected a teenage type romantic comedy or the like and this film was anything but comedy. By the end of the movie Pattinson earned my respect as an actor and his supporting cast was pretty good as well.

The movie gets a bit slow at times, especially for fans of Twilight movies, but if you are patient, and pay attention to the characters they will draw you in and time will fly. And, in the end, you will think it was worth every minute spent watching.

As you can tell, I really liked this movie a lot.

My only complaint was Robs smoking... ;-)

I just saw this movie last night and wanted to take a few before saying anything on it. It is a very moving and powerful movie that shows the power of loss and love. All the main characters are seriously flawed and damaged people that because they come together (thanks to the angry Tyler) become better people and find their own reasons to truly live life (something none of them have done in years).

I thought the acting was very well done. Some i have heard complain about certain scenes but truthfully, if you have ever suffered any of the losses or pains that these people have, they would realize that the actions are spot on!

I am wowed by the movie, stunned truly... I am also very glad that this movie was made, not as eye candy for Pattinson but rather to show his and others talent on such a touching, difficult, and painful subject. This would not have been made if it were not for the talent in this movie that pushed for it to be made, THANK YOU!
