Better Than Any Weird Al Music Video
Jack Bishop (Simon Baker, “Land of the Dead”) is your typical American. A beautiful wife and daughter, nice home, coach of the soccer team. But things go horribly awry one day when his daughter Toby (young horror veteran Chloe Moretz) goes missing… has she been brought across the border to become a prostitute? Or is she the victim of a known sex offender? Jack will stop at nothing to find out, even if he must reveal his own secret past.

I had little familiarity with the people who made this film, beyond Chloe Moretz, who has been the girl in more or less ever horror film for five years — and I’m not complaining. Paz Vega played a strong lead, although the rumor is she replaced Jordana Brewster, a friend of Killer Reviews. With all due respect to Brewster, I think Vega was the right casting choice — she had the elegance, the versatility and the pluck to be the multi-faceted character she needed to be. Rounding out the notable cast is Claire Forlani (“Mallrats”), with a far too small role as the prostitute Katie.

Simon Baker, who was not known to be (I have not seen TV’s “The Mentalist”), was a commanding lead in every sense of the word. A devoted father, mysterious possible suspect, heroic ex-thug. I felt he was a natural for every position he was put into. As the plot twists and turns (which is really another strength of this film — I had to keep guessing) he is able to roll with it and make every thing believable.

Horror fans will enjoy this film, though it’s not horror in any strict sense. It’s a dark mystery thriller, with a cult, some epic violence — one of the most brutal beatings I have ever seen on film — and some creepy imagery. I was visually seduced. There’s also some decent action and suspense… not too much romance (sorry, ladies) and a spattering of humor, but only just the bare minimum, keeping the film tense and taut.

I found the film to have an interesting social and political commentary, though I don’t feel it was intentional. Over the last several years, there have been a few horror films with a Mexican flavor, such as “All Soul’s Day” and “The Dead One”. By and large, these were failures. “Not Forgotten” has a strong American/Mexican theme, with border crossings and international crime being a key undercurrent. How accurate these are, I do not know — I live in Wisconsin where we see more Canadians than Mexicans. But the way the border was portrayed struck me as fascinating and believable, as well as timely in a culture where fear of immigrants comes to a head again and again. This film portrayed Mexicans as both heroes and as ruthless killers, not stereotyping them one way or another, and I found that to be very honest.

“Not Forgotten” is a straight-to-DVD release, but don’t let that fool you into thinking it’s less than great. Even with my sporadically short attention span (I often require friends and/or booze to get through a film in one sitting) I could not remove my eyes from this movie. A pure win from beginning to the amazing twist at the end. Could a prequel or sequel be in the works?

I Want To Forget
I was open minded when I chose to see this film but I have to say that this film was NOT good. I thought the story left enough to play with but in the end the film fails to impress. There is not so much plot twists but instead the introduction of characters you learn nothing about.

It is slow paced and there is very little importance on the build up so I was bored watching it. I found some parts quite silly like the brake out of jail. There was a lot of detail missing in the film and too many questions left unanswered. You could save a lot of time by simply watching the repeated scene throughout the film and the ending because that’s just about all that happens.

I would be embarrassed to recommend this film to friends and this is one film I will want to forget in a hurry.
