A good cocktail of "The final cut" and "Inception" with a small drop of "Waterworld".

Reminiscence is kinda look like Steven Spielberg's Minority Report but it's a totally different story, Jackman's and Ferguson's chemistry and performance is incredible, though they're not even together in person so long, the chemistry isReminiscence is kinda look like Steven Spielberg's Minority Report but it's a totally different story, Jackman's and Ferguson's chemistry and performance is incredible, though they're not even together in person so long, the chemistry is there and so strong, so we and me personally care about it, sad about it, worry about it, and angry about it, Reminiscence is sad and depressing yet it's a very solid film and simply one of the best films of the year.… Expand

Reminisce... probably one of the best Movies that's like an Adaptation to a Game! Called The Sinking City...

Reminiscence is a Neo-noir film taking place when global warming has caused rising sea levels, socio-economic disparities have increased, and technology has been delivered for people to mentally re-live their past memories.

If you enjoy theReminiscence is a Neo-noir film taking place when global warming has caused rising sea levels, socio-economic disparities have increased, and technology has been delivered for people to mentally re-live their past memories.

If you enjoy the neo-noir genre, you should watch this film - even if it is not as good as it should have been.

It is written, produced and directed by Lisa Joy who created Westworld with Jonathan Nolan.

Lisa Joy is extremely creative - but, she doesn't have the broad skills to produce, cast and direct a complete project like this. The casting is off, the writing needed work to better fit the actors and the directing was not effective. And, I guess other things like editing and cinematography where good but were not excellent.

If Lisa Joy wants to take a bigger role in producing her work, she should seek professionals who can help her.

One last thing - Hugh Jackman is a good actor - but, I'm not a huge fan. He did not quite fit the role just right. Perhaps it was not entirely his fault. Perhaps Lisa Joy got off on the wrong foot when Hugh Jackman was cast in the lead role.

I'll add that I add just finished watching a very dark Nordic-noir detective series just before I watched PG-13 rated Reminiscence. The stark difference between the two, especially with Hugh Jackman and his comic-book level charisma, made Reminiscence seem more of a teenager level material and less substantial and serious.… Expand

A good try of a retrofuturistic noir movie, with an amazing cenography, complex history and touching ending.

Superb cast and dialogue serve as an intriguing filler for a neo noir sandwich of sci fi gumshoe investigating the minds of its characters in an unlikely post global warming flooded Miami-come-venice backdrop. While it was very entertainingSuperb cast and dialogue serve as an intriguing filler for a neo noir sandwich of sci fi gumshoe investigating the minds of its characters in an unlikely post global warming flooded Miami-come-venice backdrop. While it was very entertaining it never quite reached me enough to move me beyond the average needle. Good but not great. Intriguing but not wholly original.… Expand

It's a serious drama featuring a strong romance, and a mystery that sets our protagonist on a course with many twists and turns, but no aspect of that was needless and the movie makes use of it's many locals and characters. With all this,It's a serious drama featuring a strong romance, and a mystery that sets our protagonist on a course with many twists and turns, but no aspect of that was needless and the movie makes use of it's many locals and characters. With all this, it's easy to believe that a plot point will not be resolved, but I found them all wrapped up well to my satisfaction.
The scenery was also well done. The movie considers a near future where rising sea levels have overtaken coastal cities, but not to the point that people can't live in them. This is not a major story point, and instead, it simply provides an aesthetic to the movie. The sea is always present -- whether brushed up against buildings with their first floors submerged, or covering the local roads, but not enough to make them unusable. The sun reflects across these features beautifully in many scenes, and it provides an almost fantasy-like setting for the story to be told. I ultimately can't say I liked Reminiscence simply because it made me sad. But when I try to remove that feeling from my head and consider this movie on its own merits, I find that it was well done.… Expand

not sure where all the hate comes from. don’t compare this to other movies, take it for what it is. this is a fun sci-fi crime mystery movie. Rebecca Ferguson and hugh hackman had such good chemistry and the visuals were stunning in the film.not sure where all the hate comes from. don’t compare this to other movies, take it for what it is. this is a fun sci-fi crime mystery movie.

Хороший фильм, но иногда диалоги очень затянуты. Концовку сильно растянули
