If you want to read lengthy, drawn-out reviews of the movies in theaters now (or soon to be) then this isn't the blog you should be reading. Most of the posts from The Other Critic are short, sweet and to the point; that's how we roll here.

We also don't just focus on current movies. Let's face it, there are plenty of good movies that have been made, and sometimes viewers have a tendency to forget that there is more to life than movies in the theaters.

With all that said, please enjoy the short and concise, and sometimes opinionated reviews. If you don't like them, that's okay—we won't hold it against you.

Remember Me

Remember Me is a heavy drama full of broken family issues, lots of drinking, and a twist ending that is bittersweet, yet strangely appropriate and fitting. That aside, the only draw back I saw to this movie is that the main character is Robert Pattinson (Edward from The Twilight series). I was actually pleasantly surprised with his performance—maybe because he seemed to be in his element with the smoking and drinking. I definitely liked him more in this than in the Twilight series.

The story was depressing and very believable, and the cast fit it like a glove. I was also impressed with Pierce Brosnan's character—best acting I've seen him do in a while. All in all, if you are in the mood for a heavy drama with a twist at the end that caught even me off guard, then Remember Me is the movie for you.
