Product Description:
Nine-year-old Sam Paretta is dead killed in a plane crash. Even though it's been fourteen months since the accident his mother Telly (Julianne Moore "Far From Heaven") still grieves over the loss. But suddenly her husband (Anthony Edwards "ER") swears they never had a child and her psychiatrist (Gary Sinise "C.S.I.: NY") insists she's delusional. But worst of all there is absolutely no evidence to prove Sam ever existed. Haunted by the memories of her son Telly's search for the truth propels her into a dark mind-shattering conspiracy of unearthly terror.System Requirements:Running Time: 91 Min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: MYSTERY/SUSPENSE Rating: PG-13 UPC: 043396100787 Manufacturer No: 10078

Amazon.com:
With a plot that might've been lifted from The X-Files, nothing is quite what it seems in The Forgotten, a psychological conspiracy thriller with Julianne Moore doing fine work as a grieving mother whose nine-year-old son was killed in a plane crash. At least, that's what she's been led to believe, but when even her husband (Anthony Edwards) tries to convince her that she's delusional and never had a child, things start to get very spooky indeed. Dominic West (from HBO's superb series The Wire) plays a similarly traumatized father, and when they witness some very strange events--and a mysterious man (Linus Roache) who might be indestructible--this glorified B-movie potboiler directed by Joseph Ruben (best known for Dreamscape and The Stepfather) turns into a preposterous but entertaining trip into The Twilight Zone territory. Featuring Alfre Woodard as an intuitive New York detective and Gary Sinise as a seemingly sympathetic psychiatrist, The Forgotten offers adequate shocks and an intriguing, otherworldly study of tenacious parental instinct. It deserved its mixed reviews, but it's a fun spook-fest for rainy-day viewing. --Jeff Shannon

Customer Reviews

Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating:

- Good acting in a mediocre movie
Julianne Moore rarely gives a bad performance. It's amazing to watch her in this film brilliantly rejuvenating crappy dialogue and stupid plot turns. Dominic West does a decent job as well. The chemistry between the two is established nicely. Along with the performances by the film's stars, some of the special effects are truly great. "The X-Files" could have learned a lot from this film in the effects department. Otherwise, this is an easily forgotten movie.

- The Forgotten is forgettable
I can't say much about this film as it is just a real dud. The plot is totally unbelievable although it has a clever premise. The acting is strictly by the numbers, the direction pedestrian at best, and the effect were just average. Maybe I'll rewrite this review when I'm in a better mood, but for now, this is film is one to forget renting or buying.

- Let this movie stay forgotten
Okay. Let me try to make sense out of this ridiculous movie.

Premise: Julianne Moore plays a women who remembers having a son who supposedly dies in a plane crash while everyone seems to forget including her husband. She laters links up with a friend who forgets that he had a girl named Lauren who used to play with her son named Sam. He remembers later and what ensues is some test run by the government to erase the memories of those people whose kids died in that plane crash.

THIS MOVIE IS ALMOST UNWATCHABLE; UNLESS THE ACTORS ARE STANDING STILL! OUT OF
FOCUS AND MOTION BLURRING. I CAN SEE WHY THEY HAVE IT FOR ONLY 99 CENTS. BUY
THE DVD OR RENT IT FROM ITUNES.

Rating:

- Roll Away The Stone
Warning: spoilers contained. Julianne Moore leads the cast as a grieving mother on a tour de force that draws her into her personal hell, driven by heart alone as everyone, and everything, around her discounts her inner conviction that something else has happened to her missing son. Her husband is of no help, even trying to convince her that they never had a son. But just as she seems to be headed straight for a straight jacket, pieces of the wallpaper start to peel away and eventually the top ... Read More
