        Christopher and Jonathan Nolan make a shocking and enticing story in Memento. From its unconventional formula of storytelling to the shocking revelations, the film is a landmark for the brothers as one of their bests and one cinemas groundbreaking tales. 5/5

        This is one of my favorite movies of all time. It's a movie that's filled with suspense and a lot of well-developed characters. Director Christopher Nolan really shows why he is one of the best and most original and visual directors in Hollywood. The movie is based on a short story by Nolan's brother Jonathan, and these two guys really know how to work together. The acting from Guy Pearce and Carrie Anne-Moss are phenomenal. You always understand where the characters are in their emotions and in their thoughts and that's largely due to the brilliant actors that Nolan's got for this movie. This is truly one of the greatest movies that have ever been produced and it really showed the range of one of our most beloved directors to date.

        There will NEVER be another movie like Memento, and that's saying a lot in today's age. Christopher Nolan's debut feature film may require multiple views for some audience members to catch everything, but this craft is well worth the repeat viewing. Guy Pearce gives an underrated performance as a damaged and troubled survivor out for revenge. The supporting cast, especially Pantoliano, is superb as well. All things considered, this is a movie everybody should see. It's never too late to track it down!
