Memento

BRILLIANT, brilliant film. Very very smart and moving. A kind of film that when you leave the cinema, you kind of wish you were a film director yourself, and made these kinds of movies yourself. Also makes you feel like you would have liked to know its director and script writer.

I absolutely agree with the above post. That film make me want to direct something too! I would definitely like to check out Mr. Nolan's previous work..

You either love it or hate it. If you love it, buy the DVD and study it (especially for those hidden scenes). It may be too much for some - a local video store said to me that some people demanded their money back! If you loved "Armageddon", you'll probably hate Memento, because you're not spoon-fed anything - you must think to enjoy it.

Not much to add to the above really though I detect a slight breathlessness to the comments. It's not half as profound as the director might have liked to think it was. Even so a very worthwhile film and cleverly done.

I really enjoyed Memento although I had to Look up the plot afterwards as it is very confusing! Guy Pearce was brilliant.

Well, an intelligent film with an equally intelligent narrative. Nice to see a decent, thought-provoking film come out of America for a change. And remember. It's not a story - don't treat it as one.

Well Memento is indeed an amazing film, trying to keep on the topic i have been asked ot write a 800-1000 word essay on the narrative so far proving difficult!

Original film, their's a first. Originality: Risk, Risk: Chance, Chance: Memento, Memento: Brilliant, honestly I understood it first time round, and its the type of film that need's two viewings, like The Usual Suspects. It is still utterly fantastic and Guy Pearce deserves more than the small credit he receives, Joe Pantoliano continues unnoticed and Carrie Anne-Moss is fast becoming a Hollywood Idol. The idea of reversing the story, scene by scene, is ideal. And the whole thing makes your head spin, of you don't concentrate. All in All: Supoib!

Footnote: SupOIb is not a spelling error by me. And Baldwin, here me now, you should never of spoke bad of Platoon!

Watched this last night with my girlfriend and we had a right old debate afterwards.

Did Natalie use Lenny to kill Teddy because of what happened to Jimmy? That's the way it seemed to me. Or did she genuinely want to help Lenny in the end?

I need to watch it again really! Superb acting from Guy Pearce all the way through.
