Contains a plot full of twists that can be seen coming from some distance.

Overview
Set in a Tex-Mex border town, Not Forgotten is a classic psychological thriller about Jack and Amaya Bishop, a couple who must come to terms with their tortured pasts in order to save their kidnapped daughter. It is a tale taut with intrigue and steeped in Latino mysticism, where the line between what's real and what's imagined becomes hopelessly blurred.

Not Forgotten is weighted down by obvious creative choices that mar what might have played out like a telenovela episode of Twin Peaks.
Stephen Garrett, Time Out New York
Rotten
Not effective on any level.

From the start, it's clear there's a riddle to solve...I'm just not sure you'll care about the solution.

A movie that's more convoluted than satisfying.
