Memento

ok so i finally got to see this movie( i actually never really wanted to but my friends and i voted and memento won) and so we watched it and i was really pleasantly surprised....it was a really great movie, in fact one of the best i've ever seen...so very good

It is not easy to watch memento but it is a great movie

not easy? how do you mean?

the story line is a bit complex...

i thought it was pretty easy to understand

Indeed. Really enjoyed the movie. The story is very well dome, so is the editing.

yeah its always good to see an original film, i really enjoyed it.

apparently on the DVD you can watch it in (chronological) order

Yes you can do this..but it ruins everything about the film.

It's a great film with a one-of-a-kind narrative structure. Did anyone notice the quick flash of the lead character sitting on the chair in the hospital? That was clever.

That movie is awesome. So is the ending...or is it the beginning?

You wait until the end of the speical features polaroids, then press play (or enter or select or wahtever) when there's no title of the special feature there. But as johnny rotten said, it takes you out of the movie. Good to get your head round it though.

Anyway, Memento is in my top 5. Which is difficult, as I'm so picky.

indeed! i like it too. i have read it as a book befores but i've not finished it yet. then i sew it as a movie. WOW. it's great. it is one of the great Drama movie. the story line is awesome. i think is'not difficult to get the movie. but for sure this one is not for Entertaining.

yeah it probably would, but if youve seen it properly a few times i think it might be worth doing (?)

Great and twisted movies 😖

When I saw this film at the movies all I knew about it was the title. I had no idea what to expect and I was very impressed. It's a great film.

I have the DVD but I didn't know about the chronological order version. I'll have to watch it now.

Is this on the regular version or just special edition?

MEMENTO works fine the way it was ment to be seen...a jigsaw puzzle where all the bits fall into place at the end.

I know this is a pretty old reply but it's on the US 2 Disk LE Edition, on the second disk you can watch the movie in chronological order by answering the proper sequence of questions. There's also additional alternate ending commentaries on Disk 1.

It's a cool looking DVD but it's by far the hardest DVD that I've ever had to navigate but I guess that adds to the fun

Great movie, one of my favorites. The concept, the editing, Guy Pierce's acting, the dialogue, love it all.

I saw memento for the first time a couple of months ago because I am a big Chris Nolan fan -I loved both Batman Begins and Insomnia,but I didnt care for this movie.
