Review of Memento (2000) by Adrian N — 07 Oct 2014
Memento is an averagely engaging film, paced correctly, told in a fragmented manner yet with pieces that fit obviously. It may come as a surprise that the mystery can be revealed on backwards and keep the suspense, but then that's what every mystery film is supposed to be, except this one's just artfully backwards.
Whether that works well for the film depends on how many times it has to be seen, and many have found that they can watch it once for the surprise, twice for better enlightement, and perhaps thrice for the enjoyment.
I saw about 1 1/60 of it. That's pretty much all I would ask of it.
