I think that a movie like Remember really shows what a quality drama at the top level looks like. This is the line separating average dramas and unforgettable ones. And this movie is exactly at the topmost level of quality. And, of course, the praise should go not just to the screenplay itself, which manages to surprise several times, but also to Christopher Plummer, who plays the character of a demented and forgetful old man (he’s 88!) so amazingly, that I feel sad not many people talk about him. I had a recommendation for this film from reviewers Big Bear and gogo76, so thank you guys. I completely agree with their reviews. There is nothing more to say.

Sure, it's mostly a film about an old man trying to remember what he's supposed to do, but failing to do any of it. But Christopher Plummer is great as the 90-year-old avenger. Well, he's fairly old himself. Surprisingly, even the screenplay of this film isn't bad, and the individual events are often incredibly random but fit perfectly into the pattern. Great finale.

[Contains trace amounts of spoilers] It's a shame that this is so hideously, uninterestingly filmed. Just the ending in the garden of the Austrian-style log cabin, which could otherwise have worked as a nerve-wracking clue, looks like something like a female Mountain Medic instead. Dean Norris' Nazi-exploitation again adds an unexpected and probably unintentionally amusing element to the film (I had to pause on his face during the question "Are you a Jew?"). In any case, this time the maze is in service to a script that almost seems to have been stolen from Chan-wook Park's desk 15 years ago. It's gratifying that this is not an old-age appeasement, but instead the characters maintain an unshakable radicalism despite all the stones that age has thrown in their path.

Atom Egoyan’s ability to lighten up such a serious subject with subtle humor is remarkable. He also knows how to use the viewer’s ignorance of said subject to increase the delightful curiosity about how the story will unfold. Remember is a distinctive, interesting film with great performances by veteran actors.

If we were to rate which film needs the most accidents and happy circumstances to fulfil its plot, Remember would be at the top of the rankings. Really, the fact that this revenge worked out more or less the way it was planned is a miracle. But if we leave aside the “likelihood criteria” from the rating (I don’t know how else to call it), the script is great. The highlights are the visit to the third Kurlander and, of course, the climax.
