Intelligent and original

Rating: 8/10 (13 November 2001)

I really wish that I could have seen Memento without having a clue about the plot and the structure of the story. I think I would have enjoyed the film even more than I did now if I had been surprised by it.
As I said, though, I enjoyed Memento. In fact, I enjoyed it very much. It is an intelligent film, truly original, and it is interesting from beginning to end (or rather from end to beginning). Guy Pearce delivers a brilliant performance and the supporting actors are great as well. Memento is a movie that you will think about after you've left the cinema, whether you liked it or not. The only thing that I didn't quite like was the fact that it felt a bit too long. (8/10)
