If i put aside all the cliches, stereotypical characters and situations - the movie delivered a great message and is a good choice to watch if you have enough patience.

"Remember Me" is not a Rudy Giuliani biopic; it's Robert Pattinson's maiden foray into acting. As Edward Cullen, Bella's fella, all Pattinson had to do was hit his marks and throw smoldering glances Kristen Stewart's way. "Remember Me" is not a Rudy Giuliani biopic; it's Robert Pattinson's maiden foray into acting. As Edward Cullen, Bella's fella, all Pattinson had to do was hit his marks and throw smoldering glances Kristen Stewart's way. There's not a whole lot of heavy lifting involved if you're playing the undead. Can Pattinson look alive? As the star of this modestly engaging indie ensemble drama, the London-born actor, portraying a lost boy named Tyler, accomodates the moviegoer with enough proof that he has a pulse. Pattinson is convincing as a warm-blooded mammal, and he plays well with others, but still, the glittering bloodsucker of Cullen lore can't quite escape the twilight. Remember he, Rod Serling, the man who begat M. Night Shyamalan. A sense of irony that would pull the rug from under the television viewer's feet was what typified a good "Twilight Zone" ending, a payoff that prevailed upon you and the protagonist a simultaneous epiphany. For instance, in one episode, a man who thought he had made it to heaven, actually was in hell. Irony, however, doesn't belong here; irony rears its ugly head in "Remember Me", spoiling an otherwise highly watchable romantic melodrama. (***SPOILER ALERT***) Late in the film, after Tyler seems poised for a reconciliation with his difficult father(Pierce Brosnan), the camera pulls back dramatically while he stares out a skyscraper window. His locality is the Serling-esque twist, which recalls the groundbreaking anthology series(that aired on CBS before the much-missed buildings were even a twinkle in the architect's eye), because this moment of reckoning sucker-punches the moviegoer. It's not a new beginning for Tyler; it's the end. A tragedy of such monolithic proportions is the wrong time for the filmmaker to show off his cleverness. It's not too soon; it's just tacky. Expand

I found myself heading into this movie with low expectations. I fancy myself an open minded person (I've read Twilight and seen the movies), but I also consider myself a fair and realistic movie critic. Twilight sucked. Entertaining? I found myself heading into this movie with low expectations. I fancy myself an open minded person (I've read Twilight and seen the movies), but I also consider myself a fair and realistic movie critic. Twilight sucked. Entertaining? Sure. But let's be real about this honestly. So, when I agreed to attend the premier of Remember Me with some of my excessively Twi-Hard friends, my critic hat was on cautious mode. As the film progressed I found myself cringing through some fairly cheesy cliched dialogue, but I also found myself surprised by moments of genuine emotion and straight up good acting (I am NOT talking to you Pierce Brosnan's New York accent). I was sincerely moved by the story - I really did care about the characters and I BELIEVED them. I found myself smiling at the tender moments and laughing at some of the more comical ones (and I am not referring to Tyler's obnoxious friend and roomate). And the most miraculous moment was when I found myself hoping for the redemption of these grieving families - and redemption seemed to be coming! And not in a "and everything worked out once they all figured out what they were doing wrong" kind of way. And then they blew it. A big explosion of disappointment in the final few moments of an honest look at struggling to understand one's purpose in life. Listen folks - I definitely don't think that the use of 9/11 was an insensitive move. In fact, there have been and certainly will be films in which the reference will be absolutely necessary. But here, it was cut and paste. Insert ending here. The movie was so focused on these characters, these people - and then a switch was flipped. In fact, one barely pays attention to which city the movie even takes place! And it didn't really matter, because the characters were the real meat and potatoes of this movie. Forget insensitivity - I was just hoping for some relevance. Good start to a movie career for both Rob and Emilie - I can certainly say that they will only continue to get better at their craft and in the choices they make. Expand

This movie is very good. The only thing that ruins every little part of the entire movie is when robert pattinson dies. i felt bad for the little sister. that was her only other older brother.

One thing that is good about this movie is that it interfeeres with the twin towers and that made me very emotional even though I did not lose anyone that day. The united states did. They lost hope.

Remember Me isn't a horrible movie. it won't make you question the sanity of others, it's more or less of a romantic comedy that slowly descends into one of the most stunning ends I've ever seen (even though it may be predictable) I enjoyedRemember Me isn't a horrible movie. it won't make you question the sanity of others, it's more or less of a romantic comedy that slowly descends into one of the most stunning ends I've ever seen (even though it may be predictable) I enjoyed Rob Pattinson (even though Twilight gets on my nerves- he's a good actor if he actually tries) It's depressing enough to see someone die, but what could be sadder than 9/11 combined with a love story? You guessed it. I advise you to have your favorite comedy near you after you watch this. Pros: Great acting, great script. Cons: Too depressing. Diagnosis: See it. Expand

Um grande potencial desperdiçado por um final inconciso, sem nexo e um roteiro... preguiçoso.

O roteiro falha quanto à entregar profundidade aos personagens, deixando de lado traumas que são postos, a primeira instancia, de forma primaria - como no inicio do filme, para apenas para deixá-los como uma especie de background barato. Também acredito que o roteiro nos subestima ao ter de explicar coisas que não precisavam ser ditas, como o fato de que o protagonista é bom com as mulheres, ou quando menciona sobre a personalidade do mesmo ao ponto de nos explicar tudo que, na realidade, seria muito satisfatório de ser desvendado, fazendo com que nos identifiquemos mais organicamente. Apesar de tudo, acredito que tanto Tyler quanto Ally são bem atraentes e apaixonáveis, é uma pena que esse filme tenha sido feito para o publico errado. Robert Pattinson foi bem no filme, mesmo ainda inexperiente.

E por fim, temos o plot final - que de longe foi a maior decepção do filme. Tudo bem que 11/09 foi, de fato, inesperado. Não seria muito racional pedir menções sobre ele espalhadas pelo filme, mas sabendo disso, porque acrescentar algo tão pobre???
Jogar fora um roteiro inteiro por isso é dar um firo no escuro. Saber que ocorreria um ataque/final trágico e preparar-nos para isso seria uma jogada muito mais inteligente que nos pegar de surpresa. Ou então por um fim dramático que batesse com o roteiro, onde a relação com seus pais - tanto de Ally quanto de Tyler, fossem inexistentes, pregando o pessimismo/niilismo que faz muito mais sentido que qualquer coisa.

Didn't really like this. It is a very depressing movie. A rebellious college kid finds the love of his life. Then once things are going good tragedy strikes.

the beginning of the movie is very good and charming, and unfortunately, this charm is not repeated in the rest of the movie
