Saw this movie yesterday An really good one, I like how it's played backwards, a lot of twists. I recomend it, really really good movie |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hmmm, didn't the director win an oscar for that, for best new director? Or was that an MTV movie award? heh, big difference in awards there... :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no i don't think so, but carrie ann mosse won an award in the independent film awards or whatever they're called. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm pretty sure he did... the movie sounds familiar... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and yes, Carrie Ann Mosse is in it... yes, he did win some award for it... |
||||||||

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||

||||||||

The same director Christopher Nolan also did a movie called "Following" another great one |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

|
|
sorry that was seinfeld |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i love that movie. nice how the tension builts up, yet the story is told backwards... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I thought it was pretty good. Wish it didn't have that brunette from CSI in it though.. I...uh.. -Shit Bremzen, what the hell is that in your avatar? It looks like Frank Zappa getting head from a giant black rabbit in a barn. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
it's zappa at the set of 200 Motels holding a score...:) |

Memento sucks. IT is HIGHLY overated. The script is good, but the acting sucks |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i thought it was good before it got blown out of proportion. it was in indie theaters and then when it hit video stores people began to hear of it and basically ruined it for me. i mean its good but not THAT good. i think this film caused him (nolan) to create that not nearly as good bigger studio movie insomnia. if memento hadnt gotten famous i bet his film would have been better. just a thought. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hm. speaking for myself, it's just the way i perceived that movie: i liked it. the fact that many others liked it too or not doesn't really matter. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i dont care that others liked it but I like things more when less people like it, do you know what i mean? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Memento is brilliant. Great fucking movie. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

it was a really clever movie, i was often amazed by how well everything was thought out. But behind it's cleverness lies nothing more than a pretty standard thriller... i loved the movie whilst watching it, but i felt dissapointed afterwards... if that makes any sense |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the "style over substance" debate. its a thriller, beautifully told. thrillers hardly have much substance, is what I'm trying to say. nothing wrong with that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
okay... good point. I guess i watched it with the wrong expectations. If i would have gone in there expecting to see a thriller, i would have been pleased. But the movie was so hyped, i guess i was expecting a little more. If it would have been a deep & meaningful story, told just as beautifully... it could have been a masterpiece! |

a great movie! We studied it in psychology class. one question that you should ask yourself: he can't remember anything AFTER the 'incident', so therefore how does he know that he has this condition and that he must write everything down? we looked at it quite a lot :-/ maybe too much! a good film, none the less |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well thing is, it does have more substance.. its all about memory. how memory works, how it shapes us, how our personalities fall apart without memories. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
wasn't it something like, it didn't set in immediately after the incident..? can't remember, have it on video though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, i agree with you there qrter. The film shows us how important our memory is to us, and how we - in some ways - are different from animals. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
just imagine, not having memories. whats left of you? anyway, this subject has been explored in lots of films and especially in plays.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
at the start of the film, you see the end, without knowing what has lead/caused this. You dont even know that the film is going in reverse, it's only when we see the end of the film that we can piece together all that has happened, as if we were rebuilding our memory - i think that that is really well though out and well put together, with each parts of the story dove-tailing. All the way through i kept thinking of 'groundhog day' though, lol. oh well. It's 1:15 in the morning here, and I've got school tomorrow (today!). Night night |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
its 2:15 here.. goodnight.. |
||||||||

|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
holy god this movie is cool |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, I liked it...one of the best movies of recent years... Really well thought out as well...lots of different angles to approach it from... Saw Donnie Darko recently and thats got a similar style in places... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you know actually hate buyin' dvd's right away now!! I bought that when it first came out for an assload of money and then it was chopped in half a couple months later... and then they release the special edditon!! >:( now Im stuck with the crappy version that won't even play on my computer. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
memento is a great movie! you should also check christopher nolan's new movie called 'Ãnsomnia' with Pacino. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The DVd has the option to watch it in the correct order. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you should check the original insomnia first... then shit on the remake |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i love this movie. maybe its not a perfect movie, it has its holes, but it represents a revolution in cinema construction... ops...sorry for this shitty expression |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
