The premise may be interesting, but the story telling makes the film flat and dull. There's little chemistry between characters. I don't care about what happens to them, or rebar happens to the story.

Just wtached this movie and it was great. Enjoyed it the action is really good the music is good it suited the movie very well. It isn't cheesy and it definitely isn't misogynistic like that one review said. Isn't any misoygni anywhere. The perosn who said that is 100% high. The acting is great the story line is great. One of the greatest endings to a film I have ever watched!

Seems like the writer-director became inspired by CHINATOWN, INCEPTION, MEMENTO, and THE CROW. We all want original movies but this is not it, complete RIP-off of better movies, and even with HUGE JACKMAN, he couldn't save it; feels like he's way bigger than the movie itself. Also, movie plays really amateurish, like nepotism is the only reason this film got made. Reminds me of an undergrad student film.

... especially if it is a happy story." Reminiscence takes place in a somewhat post-apocalyptic world. After countless wars and natural disasters, the world is divided between the rich and the poor. The film follows Nick Bannister, who navigates people's memories for money. Nick's life is changed by new client Mae. A simple case becomes an obsession after she disappears, and he fights to learn the truth about her to navigating his and others' memories. While the film dragged at times, I thought it was pretty entertaining for a slow bur thriller. It also felt like a mix of inception and Minority report. However, the idea of memories being the key to solving a mystery was fresh enough to help the film stand on its own two feet. In addition to this, I thought the cast was fantastic. Hugh, the Wolverine, Jackman's performance was amazing, and this is just another example of how great of an actor he really is. I won't spoil anything, but I enjoyed it and would recommend giving it a watch.

Memories, remembrances, reflections and retrospection, recalled without originality, innovation, imagination and ingenuity, leading to repetition, duplication, restatement & replication - but most importantly of all it's dull, boring, tedious and dreary.

So take a flooded out city (reminiscent of 1992's Split Second), throw in some nebulous future tech that allows us to perfectly remember moments in time and add in the hideous chud of a lovechild of Mickey Spillane and Johnny Mnemonic fan fiction with teenage angst portrayed by the AARP set and you get Reminiscence. So you have Hugh Jackman as Nick Bannister, war veteran, running his own business helping people relieve memories with some sidework for the government, and he falls for a girl named Mae who disappears one day. So in a story with enough twists to leave M. Night Shyamalan an permanent onanistic state we watch the story for lack of a better word unfold and it hurts so much to suffer through it. By the end we find out that Mae had killed herself to make sure she could finish her character arc from con artist/junkie to mother/ideal woman, Thandiwe Newton's talents are completely wasted by turning her into the girl that always loved Nick but couldn't, everyone who is a bad guy has been killed or was too afraid to kill themselves, and our beloved Nick was allowed to slip into a permanent coma to live out his fantasy life with Mae. Lisa Joy has done some amazing writing in the past between Westworld, Burn Notice, and Pushing Daisies but this movie is like every horrid trope pushed into 2 hours of screen time and Hugh got enough deus ex machinas in this film that he receives no more for the rest of his acting career. But end of the day, it really just felt like Hugh, Rebecca and Thandiwe were just there to pick up a pay check. I was going to give the movie 4 out of 10, but even the cinematography is just...bleh. Even for those that don't like the plot of Blade Runner they at least admit the cinematography of the film, the designs of the sets were memorable. So at the end I gave it 2 out 10 stars.

Don't be put off by reviewers who won't invest brainpower to work out what's happening and why. This is a good film, well cast and well acted, great plot and whilst not action packed it rolls along nicely. I was entertained and I enjoyed it.
