Over-complicated and overrated

Rating: 4/10 (3 December 2001)

I was recommended this film by someone whose opinion I value. Perhaps consequently my expectations were too high and I was left just feeling disappointed.
The positive thing about the film is that it did give an insight into how confusing life must be with this kind of short-term memory disorder - but so what?, is that supposed to be entertainment?
It's a novel approach to show the ending of a film first and then work backwards but it made the (otherwise very simple) plot overly complicated and more like a memory-test puzzle than a film.
The acting was good enough but I think that overall this film is greatly overrated - how on earth did it get in the ImDB top 10?
