Despite being funded by the Italian Mafia Remember was an extremely good movie. I loved the revenge fantasy against Japanese Fascists, the social commentary of the need to eliminated this historical power the Japanese gained from the horrors of WWII is refreshing and well needed.
The two characters in this film are sympathetic and well written, there is a real sense of threat and peril to their noble cause and I feel the character type of someone dragged into a situation creates a great dynamic between the two.
I think that the tension and escalation of the plot was well executed and not too unrealistic, the 80 year old assassin sin and the challenges it creates was comical but also tragic, that will be me one day. Not the dementia part, the killing fascists part.
Because I love movies where they kill fascists and I myself am not a fascist and can appreciate good cinema I give this one a 10/10, or for those who use the metric system a 19/19.
