Reminiscence has some reminders of Memento. A man trying to piece together his past.
Set in the near future where Miami has been half flooded with the richer folks living on the dryer part of the city.
Nick Bannister (Hugh Jackman) is a war veteran turned private investigator. Along with his assistant Watts (Thandie Newton) they have special equipment to draw out their client's memories or relive favourite moments.
One day lounge singer Mae (Rebecca Ferguson) walks in wanting to find her lost keys. Bannister is enchanted by her and they begin an affair. Watts distrusts her.
Mae soon disappears and Bannister searches for her. Worse he has been reliving the memories of Mae.
Soon discovers that Mae might have targeted Bannister, she was after something on behalf of a wealthy family. It leads Bannister to a murder plot and a child in danger.
Despite the futuristic settings which has some nods to Waterworld. This is a film noir at his heart. The voice over narration brings to mind Blade Runner.
Reminiscence has too much baggage. The movie itself is flat and lifeless. Some of the action scenes are lazy. The CGI of a half flooded Miami is well done though.
