Review: Remember Me

Someone did a great job with this still. They turned it into art! I simply had to use it. Plus, I think Rob looks great. Well, you know, scruffy, but great.

This weekend I saw Remeber Me. (Again. I saw it once before, but I didn't have a blog then.) Before I even brake it down, I just want to say, I LOVE this movie. Lately, I've been seeing alot of, cheesy, corny, chick flick, light movies. I think Remember Me was just what I needed.

I'll warn you in advance, this whole movie is sort of dark and serious. When I say dark, I don't necessarily mean scary, or demonic, or anything like that. The whole thing is just sort of...hmm, I don't know how to put it. You'll have to see it to find out.

Now, for my super short and lametastic summary! Remember Me is about a guy named Tyler Hawkins (Robert Pattinson). This dude's life is really messed up. His brother killed himself, his father is...well, he's a big meanie, and his sister is considered a weirdo wherever she goes. He meets Ally (Emilie de Ravin) and things really start to change for him. I don't want to ruin anything, but I absolutely HAVE to warn you. This movie does not have a happy ending. The ending is kind of shocking actually. It's a great ending though, even if it is sad.

It's kind of odd, because the mood sort of stays the same throughout the entire film, but there were happy parts, and sad parts, and funny parts, and depressing parts. I think it's that whole 'dark' thing again. Maybe it was meant to be that way, maybe not. Who knows? It certainly does make you think. Not as much as Inception, but still. It left me contemplating things like life, family, and relationships.

I think the cast did AMAZING in this movie. Of course, Robert Pattinson (The Twilight Saga, Water for Elephants) was wonderful. I don't think just anyone could have played that role, and he did a great job. Ditto with Emilie de Ravin (Lost). It was kind of a different character, but she got into it and made it work. It seems like a movie that would come from a book, but I don't think there is one, which makes me sad, because I think it would make a great book.



Can you tell I'm digging these RPattz pics?

This would be a really good movie to rent with some gal pals, but I would keep your boyfriend or husband away. It scares them when we cry. So if you need a good excuse to cry, this should do the trick. Wikipedia describes it as a 'romantic coming of age drama'. So enjoy! ~Peace, Love, and bunnies wearing hats? (Yeah, I got nothing today.) 
P.S. If you guys have anything you think I should review, leave a comment below. Come on people, don't be shy! I mean, no garuntee I'll be able to do it, but I will try, and see what I can do.
