El País: Surviving the Vampire   Leave a comment

Fame has made him live hiding and to go out only at night. Like his character in Twilight. Robert Pattinson detoxes himself briefly with Remember Me.

Robert Pattinson assures us that he has found the way to go unnoticed: grow a beard. “It works, the other day, in a bar, a guy told me that I looked like the guy from Twilight. That I had to go see the movie”, he explains. It pains us to tell him that is not so. He is wearing a baseball hat and a blondish beard. An antipaparazzi classic uniform that will hardly make him invisible. This 23 years old Londoner has had to digest fame very quickly. A few years back he lived out of the royalties from his small role as Cedric Diggory, the handsome guy of Hogwarts, in 2 of the Harry Potter films. He was a guy from an expensive school, with a stable family, that used to hang out in pubs and played the guitar. He was about to stop acting when he was called for a casting in LA for the highly anticipated adaptation to Stephanie Meyer’s vampire saga.

Boxoffice.com Reviews 'Remember Me' MAJOR SPOILER WARNING   Leave a comment


Drifting far from his Vampire mode in the Twilight films (but not too far), Robert Pattinson proves he doesn’t “suck” in a straight dramatic role and affectingly portrays a tortured young man with family issues who finds love with an equally wounded young woman in a romance underlined by past and impending tragedies. The name of Pattinson above the title will guarantee a large femme turnout for this brooding, PG13 drama, and although it’s no Rebel Without A Cause or Splendor In The Grass for a new generation, it has enough tender and genuine moments of youthful angst and romantic discovery that opening weekend figures should be sweet, word of mouth decent and a healthy afterlife on DVD assured.

Another German article about "Remember Me"   Leave a comment

A huge thanks to Anke for translating this for us.

Translation by Anke

-concerning the plot: “Together (Tyler and Ally) they can get over their traumas and shake off the gosts of their past”

-concerning the movie itself: “deeply moving dramas that make this love story a very beautiful one”; “…but that´s not all of it: Remember me offers not just extraordinary dramas but also actors who are able to show this connection between tragedy and romance in a very convincing way”

-concerning Robert: “Robert convinces as a rebellious antihero”; “Not just the way he looks pushes him close to idols like James Dean. Even more it´s his courage to choose complex and authentic roles that catapult him into one line with the greatest stars of his generation”; “Robert rises the challenge to act next to highly skilled Chris Cooper, Pierce Brosnan and Lena Olin not just because he´s a hunk (rough translation);

-concerning the magazine´s final conclusion: Remember me is a romantic and emotional rollercoaster of great depth, including a tragic but also entertaining story written by Jenny Lumet (personal annotation: of course, saying “written by Jenny Lumet” is not completely correct as we all know, that Will Fetters wrote the original script)
