Memento

I saw Memento for the first time last night. Everyone is always, "Oh Memento! Christopher Nolan is such a GENIUS," but I wasn't exactly dying to see it. I should've checked it out sooner, because it was great. Guy Pearce was smokin' in this movie (in every way possible). The beginning felt slow to me as I found myself checking the time on the computer (fullscreen) every 20 minutes. Although, when the viewer was finally confronted with the "WHO DUNNIT?!?!" aspect of the movie, it became increasingly more intriguing. The "what the f*** is going on" timeline was a clever tool to force the audience to concentrate on the action. Editing this would've been a dream.

*Did anyone else recognize Callum Keith Rennie? He's the actor who played Leoben on Battlestar Galactica.

Note: Why didn't anyone ask Leonard why he wore that same suit over and over again? RANK.
