The Forgotten **½

USA: Joseph Ruben, 2004

This supernatural thriller vehicle for Julianne Moore is well acted and evocatively photographed, but that's about it. The story is duller than ditchwater for the majority of its running time, and then in the final act becomes so laughably ridiculous as to completely destroy my suspension of disbelief. The DVD features both the theatrical cut and an extended version with an alternate ending, and I'm still trying to describe which has the more rediculous conclusion.

Movies

Welcome to the movie checklist!

This section is an archive listing every movie I've seen from January 1 2005 onwards. Films I have already seen are included and will be marked with a (*), but probably won't be reviewed except under special circumstances. I will be including a rating for each film (in stars, out of 5), and hope to be able to include a brief 1-2 paragraph review of each film, although due to time constraints that won't always be possible.
