Fascinating new angle to fascinating story

Rating: 10/10 (15 September 2001)

Prepare for a movie experience like no other when watching this film. Memento tests your mind as much as any other film as the mind of the character on screen is revealed to you. The events in the film take place backwards; making this suspense not a who-done-it, but instead what events led to this outcome. One neat feature I would like to see now that I've seen the film the way it is originally shown, and the way all should watch it, is to watch it in chronological order and to see how things unfold that way.
Anyway, the fact that this movie came out so early could hurt its chances but this movie should win a few Oscars (pending any more great films).
