Review: Let’s just start with telling you that this is a really bad movie.
We meet Julia. She is driving towards a bright future. Julia is a partially retired blog editor (yes, really) and about to move in with her fiancée David. However, she has a past in which violence dominated her life. Moving on from a violent relationship, she now has a life with David and his young daughter Lily. And with taking on the new role of stepmother, Julia also has to deal with David’s ex-wife Tessa. And as soon as Tessa and Julia meet, we know bad things will happen.
After seeing this film, I was wondering how the hell Rosario Dawson ended up in a film like this. Her performance is way better then this movie deserves. And with that, Dawson is the only redeeming feature of “Unforgettable”.
The story is predictable and this film looks like a Lifetime Movie that would normally go straight to DVD and never even have a theatrical release. Well, it did end up in cinemas and some people actually paid money to see it. The film is full of terrible dialogues and a really bad fight scene towards the end. It’s boring and filled with bullshit. And that ending… it even makes you believe there will be a sequel. And the universe really doesn’t need that. Or want it for that matter.  
I don’t know what happened to Katherine Heigl, I used to love her in “Grey’s Anatomy”. But she is really bad in this movie. And she stares in mirrors a lot. And I don’t even know why this movie is called “Unforgettable”.
Nope, if you have the chance to see this film, don’t!
