Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

This rather Low Budget Supernatural/Occult/Thriller has "Taken" quite a Thrashing from Critics and it is Difficult to Understand all the Hate. It is a quite Different Film using Elements of Kidnapping, Alternate Identities, Scary Cults, and Slimy Street Stuff to Concoct an Engaging and Always Interesting Little Movie.The Acting is Uniformly Good, and the Cinematography is Above Average. The Story is Anything but Typical and it has a Creep Factor with its Setting, Make-Up, and Eerie Entanglements that Deliver a Surprisingly Suspenseful Tale of Terror.It is so Good that it almost Begs to have a Bigger Budget and a Longer Running Time to Explore even More this Bordertown Sleaziness and Fringe Religion. This is a Sleeper and most Likely will Gain a Cult Reputation that will Supersede its Initial Cold Reception.

I just don't get how can people hate this movie. The cast is good, the story is good, and damn the plot twist at the end is insane. Though for some people it is insanely good or insanely irritating.This movie is all about terror, I've never seen a movie that gives you pure terror like this. The ending was definitely the most important part. At the beginning you would thought that this is the kind of movie like Taken or other kidnapping movie, but the end will really (maybe) get you.I guess to understand and love this movie, you have to have "that" dark thing in yourselves. I personally loved it.*** Spoilers Alert **** There's one thing though that I want the viewers to understand, no one won the battle. Jack/Roberto thought he had won but he has actually been fooled. And the St.Muertes maybe got their hands on Toby, and Toby's mind has been injected by the cult's persuasion. But will she did it or not is out of the question.It maybe sounds corny and all but its all about the battle between love and evil, will Roberto's love wins Toby's heart, or the muerte will conquer Toby?

"Not Forgotten" probably won't do much to enhance U.S./Mexico relations. Set in Del Rio, Texas, a town located just north of the border, this thriller stars "The Mentalist"s Simon Baker as a loan officer whose daughter is kidnapped by a bloodthirsty religious cult that, we're told, has achieved widespread notoreity in Mexico."Not Forgotten" - which is strong on atmosphere and milieu and weak on anything even remotely resembling suspense - features all the red herrings, false leads and narrative blind alleys that we've come to expect from such films, with each of the characters harboring some deep dark secret from the past that, when it is finally revealed, turns out to be a surprise only to the other characters in the story. For, indeed, when the most likely suspect turns out to be the actual culprit in the end, you know that the screenplay could probably have used a few more runs through the typewriter before going before the cameras.

Not Forgotten has it all. I didn't know what to expect from noted commercial director Dror Soref, but what I got was a first class production that well exceeded my expectations for a "night at the movies."The movie is a thriller, and a thrill-ride, in that it takes very unexpected twists and turns throughout—almost from the get-go. What was refreshing about this film was that it always stayed several steps ahead of the audience. Most modern audiences figure out films too easily. I can emphatically state that this will not be the case in Not Forgotten. The tale follows a family living in Del Rio, Texas—a typical border town, between the US and Mexico. Although it starts off with scenes of girls' soccer games and hot dogs in the town squares, it quickly takes a turn to a darker side into the occult—the Santa Muerte cult (which roughly translates into "Holly Death").When the daughter of successful bank manager is kidnapped, it sparks a chain of events that don't stop igniting until the very end. This is the story of Jack Bishop (Baker) delving into his past in order to find his only daughter. Not only does the search involve the entire community of worshiping denizens of Del Rio, it encompasses the seeder inhabitants of the dark, back alleys and brothels of towns just South of the Border. It also takes us into up close and personal with the depths that humanity can fall to—to view it face to face. But the most chilling aspect was the narration by the kidnapped Toby Bishop. It's particularly haunting, as she's narrating days after her disappearance—at her own vigil. Considering the frightfully frequency of female abductions in the US border town—the film touches on the "what if"—in this case, what if the preteen Toby has been taken to Mexico and forced into prostitution. Her father states in no uncertain terms the lengths he is willing to go, the depths he will travel to find his daughter—no matter what he has to do find her abductors. In the words of Toby Bishop, "There are just some things that you can't ask the Virgin for…"Baker's transformation is enthralling. From soccer coach dad, to terrifyingly revengeful about getting his daughter back. No more mister nice guy isn't even close when he his got the perpetrators in his sights. The sheer brutality and Baker's cold dedication, make this one of those scenes that you can't forget. Not Forgotten is told in classic storytelling fashion—in the vein of Hitchcock. It is beautifully shot and full of surprising details. The cast, not just the leading but all of the supporting characters are tremendously strong—making this a very well crafted tale. The director is an imaginative filmmaker who creates art with suspense. It is definitely one to see again as all the clues now come to the surface—missed cinematic gems along the tumultuous path that leads one to its powerful conclusion. That is NOT FORGOTTEN.
