First time.

Color me impressed. Guy Pearce was exceptional as always. Brilliant script and direction.

Cinematography was passable. Carrie Anne Moss was as unattractive as ever.

Glad I had it on DVR. . .because if I had to piss I would have been lost.

I would give it an A. . .but it isn't for everyone.

It's a good movie that I really enjoyed. However, it's extremely over-hyped on this board; though more deserving of its hype than Shawshank, Tombstone, The Dark Knight and other weaker films.

Yeah; Shawshank may be better than Memento. Regardless, it's still raved about like it's the fricking Godfather on this board.

just my opinion.. but a great movie should be something you can watch more than one time.

memento was good.. but only a one tripper for me.. again just my opinion.

"though more deserving of its hype than Shawshank, Tombstone, The Dark Knight and other weaker films."

definitely seen these multiple times

Memento might be the best viewing experience I've ever had. I have almost no interest in rewatching it, but I don't take that as a blight on the film at all.

I'd take Memento over the Godfather any day of the week.

Obviously, the Godfather is a really good movie, but I find it slightly overrated.
