Rex Reed
Moore is too precious a commodity to fritter away her time and talent on a no-thrills thriller as bland and superficial as The Forgotten.
Richard Roeper
It's very manipulative, it's very maddening -- and yet I found it very entertaining.
Desson Thomson
Slightly predictable and dumb when all is said and done.
Ann Hornaday
An uneasy mix between Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and the The X-Files, and one not nearly as smart as either.
Brian Lowry
Perhaps wisely leaves more questions than it answers and for the most part manages to maintain its suspense.
Geoff Pevere
It's the central casting of the remarkable Julianne Moore that gives the movie both a core and a heart, particularly when Di Pego's script starts making its way further and further out along the limb of credibility.

'You know this is getting out of control,' someone says near the end of the film. No kidding. Scully and Mulder could have told us that.

Truman doesn't realize that his quaint hometown is a giant studio set run by a visionary producer/director/creator (Ed Harris), that folks living and working there are Hollywood actors, that even his incessantly bubbly wife is a contract player. Gradually, Truman gets wise. And what he does about his discovery will have you laughing, crying and cheering like few film stories ever have.
