Brilliantly directed by Christopher Nolan, who also wrote the screenplay based on a short account by his brother, Jonathan Nolan, this film had to be a big challenge for all. The word “memento” means “remember” in Latin, and the myth is about Leonard, so traumatized by a blow to the head after his wife’s rape and cancel, that he has lost his short-term memory. He’s out for revenge and is looking for the killer, but, although he remembers his life with his wife and who he is, he cannot remember anything that has happened since. He therefore takes Polaroid shots of everyone he meets and writes notes on them. And he also tattoos things he wants to remember all over his body. The role calls out for an exceptional actor and Guy Pearce certainly does rise to the occasion. I found myself drawn to him, identifying with his condition, and joining him in his struggle to narrate to the world.
The narrative unfolds backwards, an current myth technique that is tricky to exhaust. We look a scene and believe we understand. And then there is another scene that has happened prior to it, and it totally changes our perception of what is going on. Purposely, it is confusing. And purposely, there are moments of clarity where it all fits together only to become even more confusing in the next scene. Carrie Ann Moss plays a femme fatal and, as we regain to know her, we are not quite positive what her motives are. Joe Pantolino is cast as in the role of Leonard’s buddy, and we are constantly confused as to whether he is friend or foe.
I sat there fascinated as this complicated set unfolded, enjoying the mastery in which the director led me down different avenues of opinion and also introduced questions about the suitable issues eager. By the ruin, I was absolutely definite of nothing at all, except that I had been traveling on a roller coaster of an experience that didn’t have any easy answers. While I tend to want films to have a beginning, middle and demolish, and a yarn line that is easy to follow, this an exception to the rule. I definitely recommend to those who are willing to witness this novel film, which is certainly one of a kind.
The only film that I can believe of that comes even discontinuance to the ingenuity of Memento is The Usual Suspects. Like that arrangement underappreciated classic, Memento gives you the ending immediately, and then spends the rest of its time showing you how it got there. Each scene offers clues and various revelations–Leonard’s tattoos, why he writes what he does on Natalie’s and Teddy’s pictures, what happened to his wife, Leonard’s job before “the incident”–each of which are thrilling mini-narratives in themselves.

The acting is first rate. Guy Pearce, best known as “the one who wasn’t Russell Crowe in L.A. Confidential”, is Leonard, a character who will intrigue you, purchase your sympathy, and might even panic you by the slay. Joe Pantoliano’s Teddy will have you debating his intentions towards Leonard for days afterwards. The valid acting coup, however, is fellow Matrix alum Carrie Anne Moss–her performace as Natalie will develop you fancy her, abominate her, and acquire you fiercely protective of her.
The movie can only be watched on DVD. Preserve the remote handy as you’ll want to discontinue every now and then, if only to read Leonard’s tattoos for various clues.

They will encourage confirm what you deem happened in the movie. DVD also offers the prankish option of choosing to behold the movie backwards (or would it be watching the movie forward? ) . You will definitely believe the option after watching the movie. I haven’t done it yet, but I can’t wait to behold the achieve that it has on the movie.
This movie is worth the famous hype. If you enjoyed movies like The Sixth Sense, The Matrix, The Usual Suspects, Seven, Fight Club, and Dim City (some of my personal faves), then Memento will be the crown of your DVD collection!
