Under Review: ‘Remember Me’
March 14, 2010 By 1 Comment
Alexa Milan of Itsjustmovies.com reviews, ‘Remember Me’. It is one of the most well thought out and fair reviews I have read, so far.
“Remember Me” is not for the pre-teen crowd that flock to see Robert Pattinson in the “Twilight” films, though Summit’s marketing campaign wants you to think so. It’s a darker, more mature look at love and family, albeit a fairly melodramatic one.
The film opens when young Ally witnesses her mother’s murder in a subway mugging. The action then jumps ahead 10 years when Ally (Emilie de Ravin) is in college. Her rebellious classmate Tyler (Robert Pattinson) has also been affected by a personal tragedy — the suicide of his older brother.
Full Review- There are some spoilers in the second part of the review, but she has it set up where you can read the first part without being spoiled.
I completely agree with this review. The movie did exactly what it was meant to do, and had all of us talking as we left the theater. The actors did an excellent job portraying their characters. I did like the roommate, I thought he was funny and needed to be. The review was very well thought out – a first for most that I’ve read. Thanks!
