vojadtpirfit I just don't get how can people hate this movie. The cast is good, the story is good, and damn the plot twist at the end is insane. Though for some people it is insanely good or insanely irritating.This movie is all about terror, I've never seen a movie that gives you pure terror like this. The ending was definitely the most important part. At the beginning you would thought that this is the kind of movie like Taken or other kidnapping movie, but the end will really (maybe) get you.I guess to understand and love this movie, you have to have "that" dark thing in yourselves. I personally loved it.*** Spoilers Alert **** There's one thing though that I want the viewers to understand, no one won the battle. Jack/Roberto thought he had won but he has actually been fooled. And the St.Muertes maybe got their hands on Toby, and Toby's mind has been injected by the cult's persuasion. But will she did it or not is out of the question.It maybe sounds corny and all but its all about the battle between love and evil, will Roberto's love wins Toby's heart, or the muerte will conquer Toby?

TinyPliny I am giving this film 6 points. 4 for really good acting by everyone involved and 2 for all the stylish imagery. Simon Baker, Paz Vega and the little girl are genuinely evil and disturbed in their respective roles. Since all the characters are twisted, I guess the script called for a crazy plot, but I certainly didn't expect this level of craziness. Every minute was a new insane twist. It was difficult to not scratch my head. The film had one of the most lyrically violent murder scenes I have ever seen on screen but that doesn't really rescue the incomprehensibly lunatic plot. I think the last few scenes made it all the more crazy. They could have at least made the plot a trifle less convoluted if they had tied up at least one of the loose ends by killing off the Roberto/Jack character. But they didn't.The only thing that was truly fascinating to watch was the whole transformation and stripping down of characters to their core evil minimum. In that sense, the film plays more like a stylishly black grisly music video than a horror movie. Recommend it to liven up proceedings on a flat and boring rainy day.

angelinab007 I just saw a pre-screening of Not Forgotten and was blown away! This is one of the best movies I have seen in a very long time. It had more twists and turns than a Texas tornado! Dror Soref is a genius- he kidnaps your senses and emotions from the very beginning of the movie and holds them hostage till the very end. The music, by Mark Isham, is haunting and dark. It draws you in even more keeping you in constant suspense. Simon Baker and Paz Vega are excellent- great performances by both. Claire Forlani also does an incredible job- she needs to be listed under the IMDb cast list! This movie keeps you guessing- it one one twist after another. The ending is a real shocker- you definitely don't see it coming! Not Forgotten is fantastic! Everyone has to see it! I want to see it again.

zackmurray I went to preview screening at 20th century Fox and I would say this is a solid thriller along the lines of "8 mm"… As an audience member, I was intrigued right up until the very last line (which totally creeped me out, by the way). There's a MAJOR twist that I really didn't see coming; at that point, I realized this was no ordinary thriller. Paz Vega's performance is awesome--- maybe one of her best ever (I'm biased though; I think she's fantastic). Very subtle—she really draws you in. And Simon Baker is a great match for her. In short: if you like smart, suspenseful, creative, original movies, see this movie.
