one of the best thriller!
..... selama ini gw ngerasa ini salah satu thriller terbaik yg korea punya. Emang sih, cuma setelah gw rewatch untuk yg ke-2(?) kalinya malah ngerasa plotnya gampang ketebak(?) Semacam ada hintnya gitu knp si yooseok bisa semarah itu. Tapi balik lg sih, kalo baru pertama nonton pasti ga nyangka jalan ceritanya begitu awokwowko 🤣 sinematografinya ok sih, gelap2 gitu sesuai genre dan pengambilan gambarnya juga keren. Suasana thrilling sama horornya dapet. Terus bgm!!!!! Kacau banget, 11-12 ama parasite. Beneran sebagus & setepat itu momentnya. Untuk acting gausah ditanyain lagi la ya, gw mah percaya aja kalo yg maen kang haneul sm kim muyeol 😃👍🏻Was this review helpful to you?
1The events were all moving so fast and were very interesting and gripping from start to finish. The actors were all very impressive and believable. Han Neul’s performance is as briliant as ever. AND, I will definitely keep an eye on Kim Mu Yeol’s future roles because I am in love!

never watch this with high expectations
a very forgettable movie, can't even wrap my head around how it's soo famous. the plot had soo mucj potential, and they were even good at extracting it, but they just overdid it at the end. the acting was amazinggg, but would never recommend to watch this for the storyline.The first plot twist was actually mind blowing, but then the plot just became predictable, with a weird drive to it? Also the last scene where they believe who his pretend older brother actually is was so '????' So done with this cliche 'the survivers gotta be there' plot.

It's not often that I write a review. Not even for movies i've seen multiple times. This turned out to be a movie that screams "write a review for me!" It's that good.If you're into the suspense thriller genre that is...
When you go by the summary of the movie, you might think that it's just an abduction/family movie. I personally thought something down the lines of someone getting plastic surgery to invade the family and do something... I don't know. I'm happy it wasn't what I had in mind. It was so much better.
At the first half of the movie, you're slowly sucked into the story and the events happening to/around Jin Seok, and you think you sort of get what's happening or what is about to happen and then the second half of the movie kicks you all the way back. What you thought was happening, isn't happening at all. It surprised and intrigued me even further. Although, to be fair, when the second half of the movie started and they started to explain the events to you, I got bored for a few minutes. Gone was the suspense and the mystery. Just to start back up again. AND kick you in the gut with the ending. It's hard not to give any spoilers.
Anyways, before I digress. If you look closely in the first half, you get a few hints here and there that will give you an "Ah-ha!" moment later on, if you saw them. I didn't think much of them at first, until i went back to look at it again. There were a few major "Ah-Ha!" moments for me. And even though I didn't expect it at first, I cried during the last 20 minutes of the film. So yes, I would definitely recommend watching this.

English and Portuguese Review
𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐝-𝐛𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐮𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐞Forgotten starts off really strong, with lots of suspense and a strange atmosphere that pulls you in right away. From the beginning, you’re curious to understand what’s going on, and the movie does a great job of keeping you tense the whole time. As the story goes on, you start feeling just as paranoid as the protagonist, constantly trying to figure out what’s real and what isn’t. The film conveys that sense of confusion and fear really well.
The protagonist’s performance plays a big part in this. You can genuinely feel his desperation, and you end up falling into the paranoia along with him. The movie messes with your head on purpose and makes you uncomfortable, and honestly, that’s the best part of the experience.
The plot twist is good and surprising, but the final part bothered me a bit. The movie chooses to explain everything very directly, and because of that, the mystery and tension start to fade. For me, the psychological horror that was carrying the film becomes weaker there, making it feel a bit slower.
Even so, it doesn’t ruin the experience. Forgotten is still a movie that’s very much worth watching, especially if you enjoy thrillers that play with your mind and stay with you even after they’re over.

Forgotten já começa muito bem, com bastante suspense e um clima estranho que te prende fácil. Desde o início você fica curioso pra entender o que tá acontecendo, e o filme faz um ótimo trabalho em te deixar tenso o tempo todo. Conforme a história avança, você começa a ficar tão paranoico quanto o protagonista, tentando descobrir o que é real e o que não é. O filme consegue passar muito bem essa sensação de confusão e medo.
A atuação do protagonista ajuda muito nisso. Dá pra sentir o desespero dele de um jeito bem real, e você acaba entrando na paranoia junto com ele. O filme brinca com a sua cabeça, te deixa desconfortável de propósito, e essa é a melhor parte da experiência.
O plot twist é bom e surpreende, mas a parte final me incomodou um pouco. O filme resolve explicar tudo de forma bem direta, e aí aquele clima de mistério e tensão vai se perdendo. Pra mim, o terror psicológico que segurava o filme acaba ficando mais fraco nessa parte, deixando tudo um pouco mais arrastado.
Mesmo com isso, não estraga a experiência. Forgotten ainda é um filme que vale muito a pena, principalmente se você curte suspense que mexe com a cabeça e te deixa pensando até depois que acaba.

estuvo guay
me gustó bastante, sobre todo la primera parte en la q vas descubriendo cosas y esoWas this review helpful to you?
this film was definitely thrilling. from start two finish it was unpredictable, suspenseful, and often even terrifying . there was no dull moment. it keeps you guessing. i was very confused in the first half - only for the pieces to masterfully fall into place in the second half.
the performances from the cast were haunting and moving. i quickly became invested in the two brothers, so the events of the film shocked and upset me. the plot and the backstories really make you feel strongly, and the ending was heartwrenching but it was necessary for the story.
i loved it, but i wouldn't really want to rewatch it. maybe once to notice any clues i missed? but the tone is very dark and the first half might lose it's charm when you have watched the entire film. i would recommend this to everyone though.

Masterpiece
Forgotten starts off as a seemingly simple psychological thriller: we follow Jin-seok, a young man who moves into a new home with his family and watches his older brother get mysteriously kidnapped. When his brother returns weeks later with no memory of the trauma and acting strangely, paranoia and mistrust quickly take over.However, the greatest triumph of director Jang Hang-jun is the film’s brilliant buildup. It relies on small, subtle details—a pill, a sound from the locked room, an anomaly on the calendar—to systematically erode the protagonist’s sanity and the viewer’s trust in what they are seeing. The atmosphere is suffocating, and just when you think you’ve figured out where the story is heading, the script hits you with a perfect plot twist.

the plot twist
One of the BEST movies I’ve seen so far, the plot twists are everything I would recommend this to anyone who loves horror or psychological thriller movies the pure fear and adrenaline when watching this show is one of the most deepest feelings i ever gotten. at first it seemed weird from the beginning but as you keep watching you might get your thoughts right at first but it gets better if you actually pay attention to the details from the beginning. I enjoyed watching this movie a lot and would definitely rewatch it all day this has to be my favorite thriller of all timeWas this review helpful to you?
Strong opening with a decent finish
The acting was incredible! The story and concept were pretty good as well. I think the first half of the movie is stronger than the second half. The first half really keeps you guessing on what is actually happening which makes it a lot of fun to watch. The wrap up for the movie was pretty good but could've been done a bit better. It wasn't disappointing or bad in any way at all, just maybe could've used a bit more tweaking for the second half.Was this review helpful to you?
i wouldn't wanna spoil, but you do have this false identity going on that really sets the vibe and the tension, you have "suspicious" and the stage to revealing the truth which is really played well. a lot of action but in a small stage. honestly give the movie a try, like legit it got me clapping and jumping.
