Was 'Reminders of Him' a good movie?

Posted 3/13/2026

Reminders of Him is a poignant drama adapted from Colleen Hoover’s bestselling novel. The story centers on Kenna Rowan (Maika Monroe), a woman returning to her Wyoming hometown after serving five years in prison for a tragic mistake that claimed the life of her partner. Her singular goal is to reunite with her estranged daughter, Diem, but she faces a wall of hostility from her former in-laws, Grace (Lauren Graham) and Patrick (Bradley Whitford), who are determined to keep her away. Amidst this isolation, Kenna forms an unexpected and emotionally risky bond with Ledger Ward (Tyriq Withers), a local bar owner and the only person in town willing to offer her a path toward redemption.

Directed by Vanessa Caswill, the film explores heavy themes of grief, self-forgiveness, and the complexities of maternal love. As Kenna and Ledger’s relationship deepens, they must navigate a shared connection to a painful past, including flashbacks featuring Scotty Landry (Rudy Pankow). The production marks a significant cinematic debut for country star Lainey Wilson, who plays Kenna’s supportive confidante, Amy.

Early buzz suggests that the film captures the raw, "heartbreak-and-healing" atmosphere that has made Hoover a literary phenomenon, with Maika Monroe delivering a career-defining performance as a mother fighting for a second chance. Following the massive success of previous adaptations like It Ends with Us, this film is positioned to be a major emotional draw for audiences seeking a grounded, character-driven narrative about the high cost of a single mistake and the enduring power of hope.
