I'm thoroughly confused

Rating: Null/10 (30 November 2001)

The trick with a movie like this is to balance intrique and suspense without confusing the heck out of your audience. Memento does too much of the latter for the majority of moviegoers. Without giving away too much, the chronology is almost impossible to follow the first time seeing it. Even some of my very experienced movie-goer friends didn't like it, and won't spend money buying or renting the movie again and again just to figure it out. I give this movie a 7 out of 10 right now, but it will probably change for the better as I see more of it. All I can say is that you can't watch it just once, so if you don't want to be enraptured with its plot line, then don't see it at all.
