MEMENTO [2000]

Director Christopher Nolan's neo-noir revenge thriller Memento is a fascinating watch indeed.  Utilizing the non-linear style of storytelling to the maximum, Nolan has a knack for constantly baffling audiences with twists and turns.  Unfortunately his characters have never really been all that interesting and that hurts the film during repeat viewings since you've solved the mystery.  Still the tense atmosphere and performances from Guy Pearce & Joe Pantoliano make for a great film to see at least once.
