Unrealistic review?
According to my personal taste. As you see this movie got a solid 10 from me and I know it seems I did that lightheartedly, but I did not. From beginning to the end, it doesn't fail to hold the interest of the viewer. Soon we realise that something is wrong and we learn everything in due time. It's going to jump-scare you, shock you, keep you on the edge of your seat and even move you to tears. The acting was great, the music was beautiful and I've watched three times, enjoying it every single time. This is one of my most favourite movies ever.Was this review helpful to you?
nerve wracking and mind blowing
Rating: 4.6/5 starsForgotten is a cinematic masterpiece that takes you on a rollercoaster ride of emotions. Its plot is so rich and intricate that it could easily be the foundation for a gripping drama series. The numerous plot twists are unexpected and mind-blowing, keeping you on the edge of your seat throughout the film.
The narrative is psychologically satisfying, with hints of suspicion subtly planted throughout the movie, such as the protagonist's pill-taking habit. The pacing is well executed, starting steady, and then fluctuating, mirroring the emotional turmoil of the characters. The climax, where both main characters meet their end, is a poignant reflection of their shared pain and trauma.
The film's aesthetics are noteworthy, particularly the use of lighting to distinguish between reality and memories. The colorful, vibrant lighting of the memories contrasts sharply with the dark, grim reality, enhancing the impact of the plot.
Forgotten isn't just a thrilling suspense movie; it also delves into serious themes such as crimes committed out of desperation and unsolved cold cases. It's a movie that turns its viewers into detectives, encouraging them to piece together the clues and unravel the mystery.
The acting in this film is commendable. The cast delivers high emotion scenes with intensity and brings subtlety to the quieter moments. Their performances contribute significantly to the overall impact of the film.
This movie is a must-watch for fans of dark-themed movies and psychologically twisted films. It's a thrilling, suspenseful, and horrifying journey that hooks you from start to finish. Forgotten truly deserves all the praise it receives. It's a film that leaves a lasting impression and earns a well-deserved rating of 4.6 out of 5 stars from me.

TWISTY, SEMI-DARK - unfolds in a very mysterious way
Moments of eeriness, goriness and tension are brilliantly scored and backed by. Performances do stand out here by Kang Ha-Neul and especially Kim Mu-yeol, who takes the most amazing piece of the cake.Forgotten is that film that won’t be easily forgotten and even after the credits roll down, it will stay with you. It has its emotional share and mysterious thrilling part, combined well to land a good thriller on its proper runway. A good mysterious thriller with a pinch of emotional moments to fill your visual kitty.
VERDICT _ The mystery reveals that are enough to hook you around. Yes, the latter half or the third act of the film dips but still provides a fair share of curiosity and the answers to inquisitive questions built in the first half.To conclude, this is a film which succeeds in striking a near-perfect balance between both revelation and suspense.

Great Movie
This movie kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time and kept me intrigued till the very end. I thought I understood what was happening but the writer added such a good plot twist that made everything that much better. I'm not a big romance fan and am always searching for crime/thriller whether it be a k-drama or k-movie and this definitely lived up to my expectations. I would definitely recommend to people who love thriller/suspense.Was this review helpful to you?

The theme is important
This film has many layers but underneath it all there's one main central theme that people keep overlooking because all they talk about is the "twists" and change of events. The main theme is that this is a TRAGEDY.Once you see the last scene where you see laughs, smiles, an innocence that abounds in the lake countryside, this was a huge tragedy and once you see know how it ends you can't help but feel bad for them. I know everyone wants to talk about the turn in direction, or how they predicted or did not predict the outcome, above it all is how it ends.

it was just perfect
literally just what the headline says lolTiny spoilers? Js adding to make sure
This is a movie you should watch without knowing anything beforehand
9.5 because I was really sad at the end but perfect regardless, I feel like if the ending went any other way it wouldn’t have been as good. Because we know the how important it was to both characters . Still made me feel empty inside like omg..🥲
it was confusing and it had me on edge the whole time, but it was super exciting and the story was really good. I wish I could rewatch it again for the first time.

WHAT DID I JUST WATCH
The story starts out calm when suddenly the atmosphere changes. Just when you through you had figured out the plot, a new twist was added. I loved the many turns the story took, which never created a dull moment. Especially the end took me by surprise. I had to sit in silence as the credits rolled to process what I’d just watched.One of the things I liked the most was the acting between the characters. The development of them and their interactions were very interesting to watch. Normally I would never rewatch a movie but for this I think I’ll definitely have to, to get a different perspective.
10/10 recommend!

WHOA!
This is my first Korean movie in months! I’ve been in a K-drama/K-movie slump for such a long time and I didn’t know what to watch to end it. Until yesterday, a friend told me about this brilliant movie she just watched, “Forgotten”. When she told me that “the plot twist was amazing”, there’s no way I wouldn’t watch the movie! Plot twists are always my favorite!This movie was super unpredictable. I thought I could’ve guessed the plot twist, but dang… I was so wrong! The acting was spot on! Kang Ha Neul and Kim Moo Yeol deserved awards for this movie! Just. Brilliant. The music was suspenseful and everything was just perfect!
I would recommend this to anyone who’s searching for a suspensful mystery/thriller with DOPE PLOT TWISTS! Overall, 9 stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Amazing plot twist!
Wow. Really good movie, this is truly what I expect when it is said that there’s a plot twist in a movie.Actually, I was expecting just a simple thriller film about kidnapping and it completely blew my mind and broke my heart.
It was great, at first intriguing but then the plot twits into a tragic and devastating story, I was heart-touched; I wanted to cry about 4 times.
I even felt terrible for the main character and what he had been through during all the movie.
Also the acting was excellent, I totally recommend this movie!

WOW
When you think you understood, you actually didn't, this is what i simply love in this movie. Is full of mystery and i can tell i got scared and screamed LOL, it's really overwhelming!!But it got pretty sad at the end, when you think at least someone is gonna be okay in the end, they died...i got pretty sad about this but i low key like it, because i felt that it represented how the real life can be
I could feel the shame, the sadness, the falsity, the anger, the guilty, everything.
