REVIEW: Remember Me (2)

DROOLFEST FOR RPAT FANS

I did not understand why young women were turning into mush puddles en masse when the name Robert Pattinson was but mentioned. And I missed the Twilight series completely. So Remember Me would be my first experience of the mush inducing Robert Pattinson.

REVIEW: Remember Me

THE YEAR'S 2001

The best thing about Allen Coulter’s Remember Me is it’s unpredictability.  There is a sense of sadness and loss permeating through it, and the characters cope with the dud deals life gives them, as best as they can.  The year is 2001 -- and that is a spoiler.
 
The relationships are beautifully etched  — the most heartwarming being one between the angry young hero Tyler (Robert Pattinson) and his shy artist sister (Ruby Jerins).  His resentment is against his rich father (Pierce Brosnan), whom he blames for the death of his brother.
