Best Movie of 2000

Rating: 9/10 (3 April 2003)

Memento is a twisty noir in a way that it's never been done before. It's told, for lack of a better word, backwords. Leonard Shelby cannot remember anything for more than about fifteen minutes. Yet, he is on a quest to kill the man who killed his wife. The premise may sound overdone, but I promise you it's not. I've seen this film numerous times, and everytime I pick up new little details. Guy Pierce, as Shelby, gives easily his best role ever. In conclusion this movie will have you thinking about it for days after.
