Simply outstanding
An excellent film. Well directed and acted by all concerned. The way the film has been put together means that you frequently know what is coming, but not how you are going to get there. After you have watched and enjoyed the film as it was intended I recommend watching it forwards .Access the special features section of the DVD. Wait for the 'Memento Mori' picture to move and the pic of Leonard with a pic in his mouth to take up most of the screen (best wait for the words 'Memento Mori' to be barely visible at the edge of the screen). Press enter/play. A screen will come up telling you you have found the hidden version of the film. Click on 'Play'.
And then watch the film in chronological order including the end credits rolling backwards at the beginning and...
Concentrate!
Since embarking on a sharp learning curve with the ambitious Following, each one of Christopher Nolan's subsequent projects has been excellent and Memento is no exception.
Memento
"...Token memorabilia has the uniquely disorienting quality of a ponder over....It's the rare murder story in which every moment lives....Pearce's uncommon conduct lends honest the smallest events the aura of a memoirs-or-death search..."
Memento
"...[A] mesmerizing positive-bender....A new immortal total thrillers....This jolting jigsaw puzzle of a flicks grabs you and won't discharge support a move..."
Memento
"...Crafty....Remembrance is a brilliant feat of rug-pulling, certain to delight fans of movies like THE Run-of-the-mill SUSPECTS and PI..."
