That was an excellent one.

Crappy film

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

I only found the opening scene exciting! The rest is total nonsense! Obviously who would leave her car window open so that the jealous OCD stricken ex wife could slide her phone inside?? Oh Julia being a leading head in an "online storytelling" campaign doesn't know that her Facebook credentials are used by the same ex wife to chat with her obsessive boyfriend from the past?? I fell asleep halfway.

Give yourselves the time back, go out, smell the roses but for the love of crap do not watch this film.

The film Fatal attraction set a high bar for these type of female psycho thrillers. Most of the movies with similar plots that have followed have been extremely poor and I really dislike this genre which usually has a blonde sexy looking unhinged bad lady where everything is sign posted.The film starts with a bruised and injured Julia Banks (Rosario Dawson) being questioned by the police after her violent ex has been found dead in her house. The film then goes back in time six months when Julia has moved in with her new beau, David. However his ex wife Tessa (Katherine Heigl) starts manipulating events in using her daughter to make Tessa look bad so she can have David for herself.Unforgettable is a turgid failure. It has nothing redeemable about it. The script is dire. Even though the cinematography is done by a 5 time Oscar nominee Caleb Deschanel it looks like a Lifetime movie of the month than something released for the cinema by Warner Brothers.

Katherine Heigl shows her acting prowess and versatility switching from soft comedy fluff to hard dramatic fare and does so in an effortlessly fashion. In "Unforgettable" she portrays Tessa Connover the gorgeous tall slender blonde doll that had it all, but lost her hunky husband GQ model type David Connover, and her little doll of a young daughter, losing her past life in a divorce.It is very easy to pick up on the Barbie doll comparison for Tessa. But what does Barbie represent? The ultimate beauty, superior to everyone else. In this film the else is Julia Banks (Rasario Dawson) a light skinned beautiful black woman who was a troubled youth and had a relationship with an abusive man, whom she has a restraining order against, after he had beaten her.There is a dichotomy between Tessa and Julia that is very evident. But you have to believe that the filmmakers were playing the race card to boost viewer's interest. For would it have been as interesting if Julia had been a Caucasian brunette? The filmmaker director Denise Di Novi also played it safe by not showing graphically what would have happened in a situation such as this.Tessa growing up in an affluent white society, surrounded by mostly white friends and associates, probably would have harbored some racist feelings. Then Julia the only black character in this group setting would have had some racism directed at her by Tessa. In reality Tessa most likely would have had this inner racism come to the surface, when confronting Julia. Yet all of this is swept under the rug and handled in a pristine sanitized manner by the filmmaker and writer.You see a few years back black actors had protested vehemently about not enough roles for blacks and the fact that blacks were not nominated for any awards. So the mostly white Hollywood community took notice and began offering more roles to black actors and awards for them followed shortly afterwards.I was very disappointed that director Di Novi handled this film with such kid gloves, making such a pristine sanitized version of what society is really like. By not showing what a black woman entering such a situation would in reality face. Tessa without a doubt would have been a closet racist. Her mother Helen/Lovey (Cheryl Ladd) as child with her affluent upbringing most likely had black servants working for her parents, waiting on her needs. She and Tessa being brought up on the belief of white superiority. They of course keep it in the closet A black female director would have not been afraid to show a real gritty graphic down to Earth real story. With all the racists feelings coming out from Tessa. Without a doubt during Tessa's and Julia's confrontation Tessa would have uttered the N word, and when talking to her ex-husband David she would have uttered it. So we were handed a sterilized version without any reality. So Hollywood let black film directors tell the graphic real story of what black characters would endure.
