This movie, despite its name, is pretty forgettable.
OMG! This movie was so creepy.
And the end... Shit!!!
Those women were crazy as hell.
It's terrible. Totally predictable plot, full of commonplaces and illogical situations worthy of a class B thriller. Rosario Dawson is awful. Katherine Hiegl inconsequential.
A waste of time

We have seen this somewhere, the plot can be predicted after the first minutes. Rather a waste of time.
Rosario Dawson and Katherine Heigl star in the psychological thriller Unforgettable. When Julie Banks moves in with her fiancé she soon finds herself embattled with his ex-wife, who begins to manipulate and sabotage Julie’s relationship with her daughter and ex-husband. Both Dawson and Heigl give strong performances; Heigl makes for a particularly good villain and plays psycho especially well. But the plot’s formulaic and predictable, and has been done a hundred times before. Yet despite its lack of originality, Unforgettable is entertaining and delivers some thrills.

The Good:
The two leads are surprisingly good. Katherine Heigl suits the manic and slightly psychotic Tessa well, while Rosario Dawson feels like a natural counterweight.
The third act is sufficiently tense and engaging, despite all of its faults. It feels like a satisfying Climax to a mostly hollow build-up.
Considering the hollow plot, predictable twists and cheap thrills, this film really shouldn't feel as engaging and tense during the final act as it does. Its weirdly bizarre, and above all satisfying.
The Bad:
This film looks and feels like a made-for-TV film with its minuscule, stale and tacky production and sometimes sluggish pace.
From a very forced psychological drama thriller, Unforgettable turns into a cheap slasher film wannabe in its final act.
The script develops the two leads unevenly, giving Tessa (arguably the more interesting of the two) more stuff to do and a more engaging backstory, while sadly forgetting to do the same for Jules.
The small jump scares and weirdly inserted moments of suspense during the first two acts feel very tacked on.
The supporting cast is pretty weak. Geoff Stults feels misplaced next to Dawson and Heigl.
Plotwise, this film doesn’t even try to come up with something fresh or exciting to set it apart from the plethora of other similar features.
The Ugly:
I guess Predictable would have been a better title for this film.
VERDICT:
This by-the-numbers psychological thriller has star power and an underlying potential but ultimately fails to be anything else than a half-hearted attempt.
50% = :heavy_minus_sign: = UGLY
I can't believe this movie was thought to be released in theatres instead of TV: the quality of the acting, its plot, its style... everything makes me think this could have been a perfect TV movie for a cable channel, but, please, don't let this kind of movies in theatres...
I saw potential in the film, however, the ending ( when Tessa dies) gave me to little, I was expecting more fight from the antagonist, and the mental breakdown of Tessa has also aborded really poorly , and I am a believer that mental issues need to be portraited with more realism and detail.
Could have been a guilty pleasure, but instead its just guilty of being boring. The kind of film that belongs in the late 80's/early 90's, but it fails to compete with others in this genre (Fatal Attraction et al). Generic, predictable, forgettable!

So predictably mundane. Everything could have been avoided.
