Worth watching? (star)(star) 1/2

” ‘The Forgotten’ looks like it might be an intriguing study of a delusional woman’s crackup. … But once the feds show up and weird things happen in the sky, it’s clear that ‘The Forgotten’ is not up to anything that stimulating. What we get instead is a serviceable ‘X-Files’ episode, elevated a bit by Moore’s contained yet furious take on never-say-die mother love.”
