Without a doubt, by far the best movie I've seen in the theaters in over a year

Rating: 10/10 (5 June 2001)

Memento truly was a unique movie. First of all, the major and most engaging attribute to the movie was the non-linear, backwards time-line that the movie was based on. It really was the only successful way to present all the facts in the movie but still keep up on the whole memory loss factor. It was really cool though because it was so confusing. It wasn't really that confusing but it was enough for (sorry for breaking the golden rule) me to speak out in the theater to my buddy and ask him for some concise guidance. But with the backwards plot, there was a telephone discussion between the main character and a soon-to-be-known other character.
In short, Memento was a fascinating movie that took a seemingly simple plot (SEEMINGLY!) and turned it into a truly unique and rewarding movie theater experience.
