Saw Memento over the weekend. Has it been commented on anywhere above?
It is an intriguing although ultimately unsatisfying movie.
Very tricky and some of the tricks don't really work.
But, to discuss it in detail would definitely involve innumerable spoilers.
My bottom line
it had the potential to be a truly fine film (and the underlying premise is great), but there are too many loose ends and inconsistencies. The latter, in particular, detract one's attention.
The acting on the whole was terrific. I can only recall having seen Guy Pearce in three films (Priscilla, Queen of the Desert which was immensely entertaining and in which he did a terrific job; LA Confidential, same comments, and this one.) I suspect he's got a bigger portfolio than that. Anyone know?
