Remember Me (2010)

Remember Me

ever since his brother Michael hung himself to death, Tyler remained moody and uncertain of his future. the relationship between him and his father Charles, has gotten worst since then. although he had moved out into an apartment with his friend Aidan, Tyler was very close with his younger sister Caroline, whom Charles remained distant with. Tyler got to know Ally from school and they started going out. 10 years ago, Ally watched her mother being killed in the subway thus led to her detective father being overprotective ever since. she bonded with Tyler over their losses and she moved into his apartment after having a fight with her father. at the same time, Caroline was bullied by a group of classmates and her hair was cut off. this resulted to Tyler being violent in her class, threatening the bullies. Charles was impressed with Tyler standing up for his sister and with his influence, he also backed Caroline up just so she won't be bullied by the same group again. through the incident, Tyler finally reconnected with his father. one day, just when he was waiting for his father in the office, the unthinkable happened. it was the exact day where the 9/11 terrorist attack took place. it was then revealed that Charles' office was located at the World Trade Center.

we weren't a huge fan of Robert Pattinson. like many, we feel that he tried too hard to look cool in the Twilight Saga, which the very same expression also reflected how dispirited he can be in Remember Me (2010). we thought we had to drag ourselves through this movie, which we absolutely did not! the characters were represented in so much angles that had us easily connected to them, including multiple impressive supporting casts. they were so believable and lovable. neither Robert Pattinson nor Pierce Brosnan was there to be just an average eye candy, it was far more intense and thought provoking than that. not to mention that the final twist was tremendously effective, giving weight to the film instead of being just another family drama!
