After Alex breaks a contract involving a young girl, he finds himself in danger and the movie centers on his efforts to track down the people who put him in this situation.

Liam Neeson is joined by Monica Bellucci, playing a wealthy and influential businesswoman, and Guy Pearce, who plays an FBI agent pursuing Alex.

This action movie stars Liam Neeson as a hitman in his seventies. He’s targeted by a dangerous villain played by Monica Bellucci, who sends other assassins after him. Guy Pearce plays the FBI agent trying to solve the case.

What to Read Next

The movie, which is a remake of the 2003 Belgian film De Zaak Alzheimer, received mixed reviews from viewers on IMDb, where it currently has a 5.8/10 rating.

One viewer described the film as “underrated,” explaining that it was more engaging and original than its low rating indicated. They particularly appreciated the unexpected twists, comparing it favorably to other films starring Liam and noting its surprising conclusion.

The film has received mostly negative reviews, with a 29% score on Rotten Tomatoes based on 100 critic reviews.

According to the Associated Press, the movie Memory, directed by British filmmaker Martin Campbell (known for both stylish and realistic thrillers), feels superficial and doesn’t fully capture a sense of location, preventing it from being truly memorable.

Okay, so I just read a review of Memory, and it basically said it’s an okay action movie – not as good as Liam Neeson’s best, but not terrible either. The reviewer pointed out the obvious though: you’ll probably forget most of it pretty quickly after you’ve watched it.

According to Vulture, the film Memory‘s strength lies in its self-awareness – it’s a thoroughly enjoyable mix of gritty action and genuine emotional depth, making it a standout B-movie.

Memory is now available to stream on Channel 4.
