Critic Reviews

Austin Chronicle - Kimberley Jones

There is, quite simply, a rather refreshing ordinariness to Remember Me in the unflashy, knuckle-down attention it gives to character development and the building of plausible and involving family and friend dynamics. Read full review

The Hollywood Reporter - Kirk Honeycutt

The scenes between Pattinson and de Ravin exude genuine charm. Read full review

Philadelphia Inquirer - Steven Rea

Charged up with stormy melodrama. Read full review

St. Louis Post-Dispatch - Joe Williams

a horrific misstep in the branding of Robert Pattinson. The erstwhile teen vampire, who daringly portrayed gay surrealist Salvador Dalí in last year's "Little Ashes," lurches backward into a pile of romantic rubbish. Read full review

The A.V. Club - Scott Tobias

The major problem with Pattinson’s ascendancy to the Dean throne: His soulfulness is a pose, an effect achieved more by hair and makeup (and yes, genetics) than the scenes where he’s required to emote at high volume. Read full review

The New York Times - Manohla Dargis

It’s hard to know what the director Allen Coulter could have done to improve Will Fetters’s absurdly contrived, yakky script about love and loss, largely set in the summer of 2001. But Mr. Coulter doesn’t help matters by infusing the movie with grave self-importance. Read full review

Boston Globe - Wesley Morris

The movie crassly repurposes tragedy to excuse its cliches. Read full review

The story was beautifully crafted and the scenes of New York ranged from gritty to postcard beautiful. I have gone back to see it several times since it opened with various friends. To a person everyone was extremely impressed with the film. I hope movie goers will give it a chance and not believe some of the more outlandish reviews. It is a well done movie with heart that exploits nothing.… Expand

It was a very beautiful movie, it had humor but tragedy as well, the ending was very unexpected and the movie delivered a great message about life to the viewers. Robert Pattinson is a great young actor and he has a big future.

A lot of people seem to have a problem with the ending, to feel that it is "cheap" or "exploitative." However, for me, it made a tragedy real to me which was previously too abstract; it made me more able to empathize with the people who really have experienced that tragedy.

Rather than exploiting a tragedy, I believe that it brought the tragedy - and its victims - back to the forefront of people's minds, helped us to "Remember," much like the title suggests.… Expand

I haven't been that affected by a movie in a long time! You just feel for the characters so much. The acting was fantastic by all especially Robert Pattinson (suprise suprise that boy can act!), Ruby Jerins (what a talented young actor) and Pierce Brosnan (as always).

This is the most underrated movie in recent years. I won't spoil anything, but I think the reviewers who are angry at this movie don't understand its intent. The ending of the movie is the essence of the movie; the movie's whole point. It's the kind of movie that needed to be made. ThereThis is the most underrated movie in recent years. I won't spoil anything, but I think the reviewers who are angry at this movie don't understand its intent. The ending of the movie is the essence of the movie; the movie's whole point. It's the kind of movie that needed to be made. There have been other movies that have tackled this topic, and very few have had the impact with it that this one had, and its because of its clever execution. Without saying too much, the issue tackled in this movie came across in real life the way it came across in the movie: shocking. By handling the topic in this manner, the viewer was able to feel the same emotions all over again. The movie was an in depth look at the life, struggles, and relationships of someone who experienced what happened at the end of this movie, and how it affected the people around that person, and it was executed in such a way that it came across to the viewers just like how it came across to that person's family. The only reason I didn't give it a higher rating was because of everything leading up to it. It wasn't a very well written script up to that point, although it had its moments. This had the potential to be one of the greatest movies of all time, as the essence of the movie was absolutely brilliant. However, up to that point, it was really just a typical teen romance movie. Had this movie had stronger character development and a more fascinating storyline, it would've been Best Picture worthy. I know that seems like saying if Mrs. Lincoln's husband wouldn't have been shot she would've enjoyed the theater, but the first two hours of the movie really aren't what the movie's about. The movie really is the last few scenes. Those scenes are more emotionally powerful, and make more of a statement than most Best Picture winners. Like I said: this is an idea for a movie that had to happen.… Expand

The wife dragged me to this one, and I wasn't expecting much, but I was pleasantly surprised. It held my interest throughout, and I thought it was well done. The end had quite a powerful twist. People who think it's offensive need to calm down. It's not; it's reality. It The wife dragged me to this one, and I wasn't expecting much, but I was pleasantly surprised.

Are you mad about Saving Private Ryan? That was a fictional story in a nonfictional setting as well. It's not a "gimmick". You grow attached to these characters throughout the movie, and then something happens to them that actually occurred in real life. It helps us empathize with the people who had loved ones involved with that incident. I was impressed with the ending.… Expand

Really the ending is just hollywood exploiting 9/11 as some sort of plot device. It was completely unnecessary as any other cause of death would same the same purpose without being exploitative.
