Remember me (2010) is a drama film directed by Allen Coulter. It tells about two young persons, Tyler Hawkins (Robert Pattinson) and Ally Craig (Emilie de Ravin) and their rough past and present.
The movie starts when young Ally is on the subway station and suddenly she is forced to witness her mother being murdered. Ten years later there is Tyler who is a ragged and rebellious 21-year-old man who has a complicated relationship with his father. One night he and his friend get in trouble and the police arrests him. Lately when Tyler has got out of jail he meets Ally, the daughter of the police who had arrested him earlier. Tyler’s friend wants to avenge to the police and persuades Tyler to meet Ally and then dump her. Tyler agrees but after spending time together they get to know each other and begin to fall in love.
I think that Robert Pattinson fit in the role very well and the character was believable. Tyler was gloomy and maybe little ironic but also very protective and loving big brother. But in my opinion especially Ruby Jerins’ role as Tyler’s sister Caroline was really good and surprised me in a positive way. Caroline was a young artist who is bullied at school. She was authentic and sincere and the role totally impressed me.
The end of the movie was really surprising and schoking. It turned everything upside down and gave the whole new point of view to the film and the name of it. It got to realize that everyone of us matter and we leave behind to our loved ones.
I’m not sure wheter I liked the movie or not. It is described as a romantic movie but I find it wasn’t so romantic that I thought it would have been. That side of the movie was kinda cliche. Boy meets a girl who acts elusive and first they don’t like each other but then fall in love and so on. But as a drama movie it was good and all in all worth watching.
