Interesting movie and yet.....many plot holes
Chartreuse11 April 2020
Elena starts school at an elite all-girls academy. Trouble is she's there for the wrong reasons and she and her roomie start getting bullied by the most popular girl and roomie ends up dead but why??? After this happens, the movie quickly unravels, goes downhill and becomes less and less credible. Skip this one!

Not too bad

Warning: Spoilers
This one was pretty good. A new student at a prestigious all girls academy is there under false pretenses. She is there to get back at one of the teachers who is her biological mother who had given her up for adoption. You later learn that this disturbed girl has had a really bad and traumatizing life and has become vengeful. The ending of this one was a tough one to watch as well

Yet another rubbish film from Lifetime

The actors are all 30year olds at school

Rubbish story and hopeless acting

The main characters only friend sounds like a michkin and was extremely annoying.

not as worst as some
LetsReviewThat2614 February 2023
This movie was not as bad really as half of the ones I have seen on the tv in the afternoon. But that does not stop this film from being the best either. For the plot we have another cookie cut type story involving a girl in highschool who is in her late 20's and has some mommy issues. But this time around our highschooler is actually a psychopath. Its that which I feel makes this movie a little better, the acting is really not that bad and sydney meyer is our girl in questions and might be good in a horror film. Theres not much else to say really. Its what you would expect from one of these movies. Does what it says and in the end is an entertaining watch.

Honesty! Trust! Integrity!
lavatch3 July 2021
Warning: Spoilers
Elena Jones is a new student at the prestigious Clark Academy. She becomes immediately attached to Rebecca Barton, the teacher of creative writing who admires young Elena's work. But almost instantly, it is clear that Elena is not fitting in with the school. As her roommate, Grace Walker, observes, Elena is not "right." The school's motto of "Honesty! Truth! Integrity!" will be severely tested with the challenges of a new sociopath in the classroom.

The film's title, "Remember Me, Mommy?", is a giveaway for the main action. Quickly, the film turns into a by-the-numbers suspense film about a child given up at birth, spending years in foster homes, and finally coming back for revenge directed at the poor mother who gave her up for adoption. The main problem is that there is little suspense.

The strength of the film was in the good character developments, including the kind teacher Rebecca, the shape-shifting Elena, the perceptive roommate Grace Walker, and the school bully and hazer, Janie Wade. Janie's character was especially interesting due to her major transformation that gradually appeared.

This was not a great film, but it was well-photographed with footage from a school that looked preppy. There was also a very sensitive performance on the part of the teacher and long-lost mother, Rebecca Barton, who genuinely cared about a young woman haunted by ghosts and demons.

A satisfying watch

"Remember Me, Mommy?" might not make my Lifetime movie Hall of Fame but that doesn't mean that I didn't enjoy it. I did enjoy watching this one. The story was good and moved in ways that I did not expect. The cast all did a nice job. "Remember Me, Mommy?" was a nice way to spend a Sunday night.

Sydney Meyer makes the movie
vbacon-111-57832910 January 2022
The plot is about what you'd expect from a Lifetime movie which puts a ceiling on how high I can rate it. But if you're a LMN movie fan like me, you'll find this more enjoyable than most of them.

Sydney Meyer makes the movie. Her role is not as good as in Pretty Cheaters, Deadly Lies but she is definitely someone that LMN should keep giving lead roles to. There's a certain amount of devilishness in her eyes that makes her an enjoyable, beautiful villain to watch.

Natalie Brown also deserves mention doing a good job as the sensible high school teacher.

The rest of the cast doesn't warrant much mention. The three other teenage girl leads don't impress.

Lifetime Movie to Remember
I loved loved loved the diversity in the cast. Props to the casting director.

The writing and direction here were better than normal. Adult story lines and high school storylines both had high stakes and nice follow through. This was full of some truly shocking moment/kills.

Pour it Up! 🔪🔪🔪 (3 Knives) 🍷🍷🍷 (3 glasses of wine required)

If you do not pay attention to these kind of movies, some things don't make sense. The teacher supposedly is the mother of Claire who fakes her identity as another foster kid that she lived with, Elena Johns. The roomie gets murdered because she finds out that psycho's true name and gets caught looking up her terrible past and involved "accidents". It all makes sense if you actually watch it or have watched similar movies.
