Summary: One of the best movies you'll ever see.
Review: What really bugs me about the few negative review (obviously written by preadolescents or thos of similar mentality) is that they dont even understand the central fact of this movie. All Ill say is that they need to understabd that Shelby and Jankis are the same person. No one murdered his wife in the bathroom (its clearly in the movie where she is still breathing). What struck me about the movie was Shelbys helplessness, he could be used by basically anyone who knew his condition. Then again he needed to be, and let himself be "used" to protect himself from his feelings of guilt. Teddy was killed because he became a threat to Shelbys guilt protection.

Summary: A MOVIE THAT WILL REMAIN IN YOUR MEMORY.
Review: "Memento" is an addictive thriller from the beginning to the end. Perhaps it's the best movie of the last 5 years; the best quality of the film is that every time you watch it, you'll discover something new. Definitely a movie that should belong in every movie fan collection."Memento" tells the story of Leonard (Guy Pearce), a man who has lost the most important thing in his life: his wife; she was raped and murder by a man that Leonard refers to as "John G"; also, Leonard was beaten severely by the same man who killed his wife. The most significant manifestation of Leonard's injuries is that his short-term memory has been destroyed; and now he is hunting John G to get revenge. Because Leonard can't create new memories, he now must store his clues on little notes, on Polaroid photographs, or on his body with home made tattoos. Also, Leonard meets two persons: Teddy (Joe Pantoliano) and Natalie (Carrie-Anne Moss), they seem to help Leonard, but he doesn't trust them completely. The narrative is told in reverse, "Memento" begins with the end of the story, but don't take nothing for granted, there will be a lot of plot twists throughout the movie. The editing is just incredible and the movie becomes an addictive gem that will surely caught you. "Memento" will become a classic thriller / mystery film. Recommendable.

Summary: Outstanding
Review: Memento is one of the best movies I've seen in a long time. It is fresh, well-acted, and seamlessly plotted. I recommend it to anyone seeking to escape the trash that pollutes our theaters in this summer of 2003. When I first realized that the movie was moving backwards (I had discussed this film with no one before I watched it), my gut instinct told me that I was in for a dreadful ride of post-modern esoteric nonsense. Thankfully, my fears were unfounded--Memento hardly ever lapses into ontological rumination (think "The Matrix: Reloaded"), and even begins to flow after a half hour or so. Pearce acts his part of the short-term memory-lost angry guy seeking to avenge his wife's death very well. He is surrounded by a group of excellent co-stars, the most notable of which is Carrie-Ann Moss (Trinity from The Matrix). This movie truly earns its 5 Stars.

Summary: A movie with its own mind
Review: I didn't exactly get the plot of the movie the first time I saw Memento. One of the reasons is that its my first time to see a movie in a backward sequence, and aside from that, there are black and white sequences alternating to the colored scenes. It's definitely confusing and mind boggling at first. But still, I was impressed with the way the direction and the editing of the movie was done. Pitch perfect to describe it. The action sequences were also great and there are a lot of scenes that I'd like to see over and over again. I've seen the movie twice now and it has been one of my proudest owned in my collection. Guy Pearce was great, so is Carrie-Ann Moss and Joe Pantoliano. The second time I watched the movie, I appreciated it more and I don't think there would be any other movies that would par the excellence of narration in Memento.

Summary: A Must Have Thriller...
Review: Even though it plays out like so many other films do, it does it in such an innovative way when it comes to filmmaking. A film of sheer beauty. You learn as the character of Guy Pearce does... little by little... in fragments. It achieves what so many films of this genre attempt to do, captivate its audience! You actually feel sorry for the main character. Definitely worth checking out! Easily one of the best films of its genre! Also, be sure to check out Fight Club and Usual Suspects for more psychological action and drama!

Summary: Forwards or backwards this movie will still trip you up
Review: Walking into this movie years ago I did not know, fully, what I was getting myself into. From the first frame to the last I was riveted. The DVD is no exception this is loaded.
Anything you want to know about the conception of the movie to the execution. This movie is different and refreshing. Granted in the end there is nothing redeeming about anyone in the movie, as a viewer you don't feel cheated or suckered. Once you see the movie, and you will, you'll know what I mean.

Summary: Five Star Movie, Two Star menu layout
Review: This is an awesome movie, a must-see for anyone who enjoys a story that requires some mental investment on the viewer's part. And this 2 DVD set has some great features on it (including the ability to watch the scenes in reverse...err...chronological order). However, the DVD menus are so unintuitive that they're really frustrating. It's amusing that they decided to model the menus after an aspect of the movie, but doing so makes it too easy to miss many of the features on the discs, or two difficult to find features you're looking for. Nearly all of the features are essentially Easter Eggs. Still, I wholeheartedly recommend this DVD set. There are many websites that expose DVD Easter Eggs, and most of them will tell you exactly how to get to the features on these two discs.

Summary: Positively riveting
Review: This is not your typical "mindless entertainment" movie. If you are expecting to kick back and watch passively while the kids are playing in the room, the dog is barking, and you're preparing dinner, then look elsewhere. If you are unable to give your COMPLETE attention to this film, it may well be the worst film you'll ever see. But give it your undivided, and you'll find that it haunts you for days, perhaps weeks, after the credits roll. Little details will return, plot points will reveal themselves, incidents will fit together in a new way, and you'll be sitting at work thinking of ways to get off early so you can rush home and see it again. This is NOT a rental, this is an OWN IT disc. You'll want to revisit it time after time. The acting is superb, the look is perfect, the premise is inspired, and the ending (which may take a few minutes to fully grasp) might just be the most jolting twist since the Statue of Liberty poked out of the sand in Planet of the Apes. Buy this disc. Set aside some quality time and let it grab you. Then try, TRY, to get some sleep that night. Odds are that your mind will still be wrapping itself around this thriller until the wee hours...

Summary: Best Movie that I have seen in a while
Review: It's pretty rare for me to like a movie enough to actually buy (vice rent) the DVD; Memento was one of those rare exceptions. What can I say - the entire cast is great, the storyline is top-notch, and the production is undestated enough to give you that Indie-movie feel, but without the pretensions that usualy accompany it. If there is just one fault that I can find with the movie, it is that, in the end, when the actual beginning of the story is being told, it's explained just a bit too much. One could easily cut half the voiceover at the end, and still have a fine production.
