Not "Momento". Either way, it's an amazing movie, and Guy Pearce plays the main character exceptionally well. One of my personal all-time favourites. - Zero , posted 08/21/05 |

When I like a film, I consume it like an album. To me a great film is like a great piece of music- you want to watch it over and over again. Memento is an amazing tone poem, dealing with the elusive character of memory. Nolan's message is that memory is not to be trusted and in a way all of us are amnesiacs. The stylistic shifts and lilting rhythms of the story are addictive and the triumverate of stars- the masterful Guy Pearce buttressed by Joe Pantoliano and Carrie Ann Moss play off of each other like a jazz combo. Pearce doesn't work enough and he should be a major star- his acting almost transcends acting in this film. His spot-on portrayal of a glad-handling California yuppie whose world has collapsed is all the more remarkable when you consider the fact that he's an anglo-Australian. (I have a pet theory that one day soon all the leading actors in Hollywood will be from the British Commonwealth (UK, Canada, Oz, etc)or Ireland, and it's coming to pass fairly quickly, no?) An absolute must-see from the Hitchcock of the 21st century. - Unsubscribed , posted 07/16/05 |
 This movie is different due to how it goes backwards. The cinematography is great. The director really did a wonderful job on this one. - yeahmyla , posted 05/04/05 |

Momento is a great film that uses a unique time format to tell the story. At first it is a little hard to figure out what is going on but once you do it really ads to the depth of the plot of the main charactor. Truely a great film. - Unsubscribed , posted 03/02/05 |

A film that had me hooked....for several reasons. I haven't seen a piece quite so brilliant since. "You..You really got to keep a list..." - Darren , posted 01/11/05 |

To see the world in a new way can come in handy as well as in many forms. If you dont have a spare day or two for LSD... try this movie. Well done -acting, direction, story, cinematography. Provides great after movie conversation. - Unsubscribed , posted 09/23/04 |
