Like nothing I've ever seen

Rating: 10/10 (8 September 2001)

Memento didn't come to the theater in my town so i watched it the day it came out on dvd. Thank God there is at least one unique and original movie that's come out this year and it's Memento. Where as most movies (granted not all) start off at the beginning and go in a straight path to the end, Memento starts at the end and goes back to the beginning. The amazing thing about this is throughout the whole movie you have no idea what's going to happen next, or if you do you don't know why. It will be interesting to see what happens to Memento come Oscar time because it is unlike any movie I've ever seen...Which would probably explain why it didn't make it to the theater in my town. Instead the studios figure we want to see the same old crap, crap with good f/x or just crap in general and we end up with a summer of crap like we just had. Unless you're going to see J&SBSB stay away from the cineplex, rent Memento and watch it at least twice.
