Urusei Yatsura Movie 3: Remember My love is a decently excecuted movie. The story takes place around 1985 and this time it centers mostly on our lovely alien girl Lum instead of our womanizer Ataru. As far as the story goes, it was okay. The plot felt a bit boring in the first half since nothing major happened, but things started to become interesting in the second half. A thing this movie missed out on where the amount of jokes they could have done. If you are familiar with the series, you would a expect lot of jokes, however at certain situations in this movie insteadof making a lighthearted joke, you would see a somewhat dramatic moment. Also there were some moments that were rather anticlimatic such as the defeat of the antagonist or how Ataru's problem was resolved instead of maade full use of in the movie to advance the plot. But the movie doesn't only have downsides, there were some rather well good parts such as the concept of losing a good friend was rather well executed.
The art as far as it goes, is probably the strongest point of this movie. This movie has some great visuals such as the chasing scene and the scenes at the festival. As for the sound, there were more english songs than I would have expected but I must say they somewhat fitted the movie.
Quite a lot of characters made their appearances at the first half of the movie and almost each had their own moment to shine, which I found rather good. Lum got the spotlight, where we also get some scenes to see of Lum as baby and child which were adorable.
I did enjoy this movie even though the first half made the movie seem like a stretched out episode, but the second half made that up by revealing some plottwists that were unexpected and some interesting moments. The visuals also helped a lot as the great visuals were pleasing to see.
Even though this movie isn't as good storywise as the first two Urusei Yatsura movies ("Only you" and "Beautiful Dreamer"), It was pretty decent. However this movie has in my opinion almost no memorable scenes which will make this easily forgettable compared to some of the other movies.
Considering it was the movie after the second movie which most people view as one of the best movies, this one still holds its own spot as a decent movie in my opinion and is not overshadowed by any means.
