Leonard struggles with his condition in a fight for finding the feeling of revenge.

Rating: Null/10 (30 October 2010)

If you're looking for a thriller and a mind twist then this is the kind of movie for you. This movie is about a man named Leonard who suffers from a "condition" which he reveals several times to people through out the movie. He is on the hunt for John G but does he ever really find him, or had he? He can't remember. People who do things out of revenge are seeking that feeling of satisfaction and to remember the way they felt. But what if you couldn't remember feeling that but you always knew you were seeking it. Leonard knows how this feels after the last thing he remembers was his wife being raped and murdered, but on that same night he suffers a head injury that leaves him unable to make new memories. I'll leave you to watch the movie and place together these pieces. What makes this film so different from all the others is how we as the viewers are so carefully placed in the main characters shoes, we can feel what Leonard is feeling and barely know anymore than he does at the moment he is trying to figure everything out. We struggle with him and are usually just as confused as he is. The movie is played backwards, we start at the end and work our way to the beginning, with a few flashbacks and foreshadowing of which are sometimes hard to recognize but very useful as the movie progresses. This movie will have you in suspense during the whole thing, after it and even while you talk about it with others. Its definitely one to see a second time maybe even a third to see how carefully everything is placed together. Even after you see it once you'll be able to pick up on even more clues that are involved. This is one to talk about with your friends and share ideas that each on has picked up.
