Definitely not a good movie!

Rating: 1/10 (12 January 2007)

Shoot a simple movie, split it into parts, rearrange them from last to first, then add some other footage between them but in normal continuance and there you have a messed up movie! I think people like it because they get confused while watching it. Just watch the parts last to first (actually in normal order) you'll see that there is not that much of ingenuity in it. It's a highly exaggerated movie. The performances are also not that good either. When rating a movie, people should consider and compare it with other productions.
I mentioned about the "last to first" thing because it is really not a spoiler. You understand it at the beginning of the film. But I recommend those who have not seen the movie yet to skip this paragraph - The part which I hate the most is where Leonard "the poor victim which suffers from memory loss" suddenly turns out to be a man who can control his memories. It is contrary to the main theme of the movie. I think this is where the whole movie becomes senseless.
Memento is rated R for violence, language and some drug content but why doesn't it say that there is some nudity? There is a scene where Guy Pearce is nude and you can see his ass. If it was Carrie-Anne Moss's or Jorja Fox's ass, wouldn't it be different?
Normally I wouldn't give such a bad rating to Memento; I gave 1/10 due to its high rating which it definitely doesn't deserve. Actually it is not that bad if you watch it without great expectations. If you wanna see a convoluted but yet a really good edited movie go see Donnie Darko.
