Review of The Forgotten (2004) by Jesse Z — 16 Dec 2010
"The Forgotten" really draws you in with a compelling set-up: how does this woman have such vivid memories of her son if no one else does, and if there's no other evidence he ever existed? The strong performances by Julianne Moore et al.
only enhance your involvement in the story. However, a movie like this is only as good as its ending. the ending is at the same time inevitable and surprising -- inevitable in that the movie drops hints throughout about what might be happening to this woman, and surprising that they would actually follow through with something so ridiculous.
