El amante olvidado

This thriller delivers! Paced quickly, but it packs a punch. Intense action and moments that will actually bring you to tears. (Really, and I almost never tear up at movies.) Holy hell- Kate Watson, the lead, has some serious range! She took this genre to another level. Great cast chemistry. Pay attention to the easter eggs and slick cinematography.

The bar for Lifetime thrillers is incredibly low, but this is a good start to the year. We all know it won't last, but if we can get ten movies this year of this caliber or better, that will be progress. While working from home, Lifetime (and Hallmark) movies have become my background noise during the day instead of waiting for the weekend. This is an easy watch. Lifetime had a similar movie with this plot in 2021 and I would say this one is much better (if I remember the title, I'll edit it in).

I wouldn't say there are twists and turns, but the movie is executed well. I like Kate Watson and Anna Marie Dobbins is improving, so the movie doesn't suffer from the typical Lifetime cringe and camp. All of the characters have a purpose and there's an actual beginning, middle, and end to this story.

No spoilers but one of the character's involvement, when they reveal their part actually makes sense w/o being the typical Lifetime trope. You'll see what I mean.

Watch once and decide.

A Wednesday afternoon snoring boring thriller. Badly acted. But somehow we sat through it. Predictably stupid. So many holes in the plot. How did they know she would wake up with memory loss and plan for that. I feel sorry for anyone involved in making this movie.

No pun intended - I mean the title already suggest that the movie deals with Memory ... and the loss of it to a degree. It also deals with trust and moral questions ... amongst other things. If you suddenly woke up and found out ... well that you did stuff that can not be considered "good"? It is tough to wrap ones head around that. So the movie sets a stage, where we see this woman struggle with who she apparently was before ... and who she feels she is now.

There is quite a lot of tension and the thriller aspect of it works quite well. You may figure out where this is leading before others do - not sure how much this will make things better or worse when it comes to your viewing experience ... it is decent I'd say.

Usual music for emotions, usual "seeing things that is not there when others look" while all the other feel-good is there, followed by the ominous music.

It's a background noise type movie, nothing spectacular or rememberable.
