Once Remember begins to unfold, the astonishment of watching an elderly man, who is losing his memory minute-by-minute, become a one-man Nazi hunter is intoxicating.

Full Review | Nov 8, 2016

A strong supporting cast also does good work, and the film -- as is the case of all Egoyan's films -- is made with smooth professionalism. It's a pity that it increasingly strays into the direction of almost laughable improbability.

The performance by Plummer, now in his mid-80s, amounts to a masterclass on how to use one's actual physical limitations to advantage.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | May 12, 2016

It's not hard to say this is his best work in years - but don't take that as faint praise.

Full Review | May 3, 2016

Atom Egoyan's bold but often ludicrous Remember plays a like a mash-up of The Terminator, Marathon Man and Memento, as filtered through the lens of an old Twilight Zone episode.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Apr 7, 2016

There is no actor currently at work capable of embodying the complexity of this character like Plummer.

Full Review | Original Score: 5/5 | Mar 31, 2016

A shaky premise meets a shaky protagonist in "Remember."

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Mar 31, 2016

Plummer is, by far, the best thing about the film.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/5 | Mar 24, 2016

Plummer, against all odds, brings pathos and dignity to a role that doesn't deserve him.

Full Review | Original Score: C+ | Mar 18, 2016

Hit-or-miss director Atom Egoyan is way off here. He telegraphs the story's arc early, and screenwriter Benjamin August relies heavily on happenstance to move the story along.

Full Review | Original Score: C- | Mar 18, 2016

Plummer, half-a-century after outsmarting the Nazis in "The Sound of Music," manages to further hone his reliably persuasive presence.

Full Review | Mar 18, 2016

It touches on big topics like the Holocaust, dementia, and middle-class American mores, and in doing so verges on bad taste. Despite all that, and an implausible plot, Egoyan ekes out an engaging and meaningful potboiler.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Mar 17, 2016

[I]n making senility the engine of the piece and siphoning its heft from the Holocaust, Egoyan manages to trivialize both. His film is as lost and confused as its hero.

Full Review | Mar 17, 2016

This isn't a paint-by-numbers revenge plot. When the payoff finally comes, it's as satisfying as it is perplexing.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Mar 17, 2016

Egoyan, like a Canuck M. Night Shyamalan, can't resist trying to trump his early career success with last-minute twists.

Full Review | Original Score: C | Mar 16, 2016

Inspired by a promise made... Remember is a potent thriller replete with big surprises.

Full Review | Mar 11, 2016

Yes, this type of role has become a sort of must-have accessory in an older actor's kit bag, but Mr. Plummer is never less than convincing.

Full Review | Mar 11, 2016

Plummer is deeply affecting, even while navigating plot holes you could drive a 16-wheeler through.

Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/4 | Mar 10, 2016

The trashier the movie gets-and each of Zev's encounters with a Rudy Kurlander is more lurid than the one before-the more its implausible, button-pushing premise works for it rather than against it.

Full Review | Original Score: B | Mar 10, 2016

Atom Egoyan is only interested in using the Holocaust as fodder for carrot-dangling plot contrivances.
