Remember (I) (2015)
5/10
collective frustration makes for bad movies

Warning: Spoilers
And bad judgment about movies. The best part of the movie is how it moves along as the main character Zev searches for a Nazi fugitive. Plummer does a wonderful job in this role, and the director does a fine job of maintaining suspense. I ding this movie mainly for the ending. The ending took me by surprise, in a positive way, but then at second thought, I reacted, as everyone ought to, "Wait a minute, we've just been scammed." I am guessing that a deep-seated desire for justice compelled director, actors, viewers and reviewers to suspend their ability to think clearly about this plot. Ugh. Too bad. There were a number of endings that would not have been absurd and that would have made this film a candidate for Oscar-dom.
