Reminiscence

Reminiscence (2021) is a noir sci-fi mystery you can watch online on iFILM. In a drowned, sweltering Miami, war veteran Nick Bannister runs a strange trade: a machine that lets clients relive any memory they choose.

Hugh Jackman plays Bannister. A woman named Mae (Rebecca Ferguson) walks in to recover a lost set of keys, and a routine session turns into a love affair. Then she vanishes. Sifting through other people's recorded pasts, Nick starts hunting for who Mae really was, and the deeper he digs, the less he trusts what the machine shows him. Thandie Newton plays Watts, his partner and the only person willing to call his obsession what it is.

This is the feature debut of Lisa Joy, co-creator of Westworld, and it shows: neon-soaked flooded streets, slow dread, a man stranded in his own recollections. The tagline says it plainly. Don't look back. Stream Reminiscence (2021) online on iFILM.
