Leave your thoughts about Rememory.
| New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisA hodgepodge of pseudoscientific twaddle and variously shifty murder suspects, Rememory satisfies neither as science fiction nor as psychological drama. |
| Slant MagazineHenry StewartThe film successfully argues that it’s through sensory details that we access the deeper aspects of our lives. |
| Reeling ReviewsRobin CliffordThere is a gem of a sci-fi story buried here but, for now, we just see a glimmer of what could have been. |
| AV ClubAlex McLevyHeading a troupe of excellent actors bringing their A games to this decidedly B-movie material, Dinklage and his fellow performers are a pleasure to watch selling the hell out of this sci-fi-tinged whodunit. |
| Assignment XAbbie BernsteinRememory is worth seeing for Dinklage's work, and it has some promising notions, but the whole winds up being less than the sum of its parts. |
| The Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeDespite its obviously strong philosophical and emotional interest in the nature of memory, the picture is most satisfying as a whodunit, observing Dinklage's deeply empathetic interviews with those who've been wounded, not helped, by a procedure that was meant to be therapeutic. |
| Mark Reviews MoviesMark DujsikIt's an old-fashioned, analog plot ... masquerading as futuristic science-fiction. |
| New York PostSara StewartDinklage is a terrific actor who’s always engaging to watch, and he elevates this screenplay’s plot holes and lame dialogue. |
| Los Angeles TimesGary GoldsteinDespite a soulful turn by Dinklage and some thoughtful themes and emotions, the film, capped by an anti-climactic ending, never coheres into the gripping, mind-bending package that was clearly intended. |
| Eye for FilmAmber WilkinsonThe machine here proves to be little more than a MacGuffin for a murder mystery set-up and a side helping of sentimental stodge. |
