Remember Me

Release date: March 11, 2010

Directed by: Allen Coulter

Rated: M

Running time: 113 minutes

Remember Me is a story quite simply about the joy of love, the sadness of loss and the importance of living life.

The romantic comedy follows the love of Tyler (Robert Pattinson) and Ally (Emilie de Ravin) who have both been through significant loss in their lives before finding comfort in each other.

Tyler, who seems slightly lost in life, is also dealing with the broken relationship he continues to have with his father (Pierce Brosnan) since tragedy struck their family.

Despite Ally’s initial reservations about dating Tyler, his charm soon becomes too much for her to resist and she is hooked.

Their beautiful love story plays out until she discovers the real reason Tyler became interested in her in the first place.

Those who held fears that Pattinson could not convincingly portray a character apart from Edward in the Twilight series, will be pleasantly surprised. From beginning to end Pattison proves that he is not a one-trick pony.

Equally captivating is de Ravin who plays a woman consumed by love.
