 Critic Reviews

Grade : A-
Boston Globe - ''The Forgotten'' is similarly lean and loose, and never mind that it won't get respect from critics and audiences who value art above craft. Ruben takes care to root his story in believable daily life -- in the physical details of Brooklyn's DUMBO neighborhood, with its two bridges tying the borough to Manhattan the way a child is connected to his parents.

Grade : B-
E! Online - The Forgotten, a sci-fi thriller that suggests even scary-movie creatures don't know what they're getting into when they mess with mommy's little boy. While Julianne Moore is attempting to recover from the death of her 10-year-old son, every trace of him start mysteriously disappearing.   more



Grade : C
New York Post - But after a promising start, this missing-child puzzler from director Joseph Ruben (''Sleeping With the Enemy'') devolves into a best-forgotten clone of an utterly illogical ''X-Files'' episode. Even when slumming it, Moore is typically captivating as a grief-stricken Brooklyn mother with the unlikely name of Telly Paretta.    more



Grade : F
New York Times - As Telly, a Brooklyn mother in mourning, Ms. Moore delivers a performance that has all the emotional commitment of a bored kid playing with a light switch. Even after Telly discovers that all the images of her dead son, Sam (Christopher Kovaleski), have been erased from the photographs scattered around her home, Ms. Moore keeps flipping the switch: sad, not sad, sad, not sad.    more
