Rememory (2017)

Best movie of this year hands down!

Such a frustrating disappointment

A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

I came across this jewel of a movie onone of my news feeds for Prime movies. I would call it part sci-fi and part who done-it. Very good acting and a well- thought-out script that will keep you guessing until the very end. A refreshing change from the generic mindless crap Hollywood is constantly producing these days. One flaw - Peter couldnt drive his brothers vehicle without customized equipment.

Mark Palansky's strange "Rememory" is an OK, not great movie. While watching it I started wondering what sorts of things I missed when I was too little to fully understand the world around me. The first world event that caught my attention was the Gulf War, so what was I doing when, say, the Berlin Wall fell? Hell, I wonder what was in the news at certain moments that I remember from my earliest years (e.g., the winding down of the Cold War). It would be interesting to be able to go back to those early years and see what was going on around me that I missed as a tyke.Anyway, the movie itself is nothing special. Maybe worth seeing once. Peter Dinklage turns in a fine performance. So does Anton Yelchin, appearing on screen for the final time. Julia Ormond's performance confirms that she's one of the most underrated actresses.

The idea of the movie is the kind i like, an advanced tech professor invents a device that animates humans memories, even those one that is hard to remember. Peter Dinklage was as usual awesome. But the movie itself was lacking some action, it was boring in the middle, the device which was animating the memories was so primitive & anybody was able to operate it, i think such an advanced high tech machine would be hard to operate, but at last it helped the hero to confront the bad memory which he was trying not ot remember, & he finally found peace. In general it was worth to watch.

This is more of a murder mystery with a bit of scifi thrown into the bargain and it never seems to know what it is or how the story should proceed or unfold.Don't get me wrong all the acting was superb and i didn't figure out the crash significance but i did figure out how the murder/death happened within 10 mins of the scene unfolding - I guess when you have watched films like "Forbidden Planet" and other movie scenes where humans try to over-reach their capability you would also have surmised what happened to the inventor chap! Yip its all been done before and in a much more interesting way - the actual box itself looks really cheap and the special effects are woeful - there is even a scene where the plastic visor screen opens up and instead of gliding like it would if it had a proper electronic motor it moves like it is stuck - i actually started to laugh at that point it was really very poor effects!The movie itself was plodding and nothing groundbreaking as some reviewers are suggesting - its very sad how there are so many shills on IMDb trying to sway the votes and getting people to view movies that really aren't what they are expecting.I guess we are all still waiting for another Matrix, Saw or Oblivion movie with a great idea but this isn't it sadly.
