Rating: 10/10 (7 August 2002)

I first only Memento because my cousin said it was the best film he's ever seen, and I have to say this is one of the best films I've ever seen. The acting is excellent, the story is great, the way the film is told is original and the fact that the film is not driven by special effects. I've watched this movie about 10 times and the cool thing about this film is you keep finding new things every time you see it and this film always keeps you wondering for example did Leonard kill his wife? After I saw Memento I instantly said to myself "I've got to buy this on DVD".
This film is beautifuly told making us watch it as Leonard lives his life. The intro to the film (a Polaroid photo developing, being shown backwards) gives an excellent explanation to Leonards condition, his memory fades.
If you just want to see an excellent film with a great story and a great cast, than this is an absolute must. Hire it and watch it about 5 times then...watch it again. Trust me if you like thrillers then you will love Memento.
"Now... where was I?"
