Review: Christopher Nolan's Memento is indeed a rare and remarkable achievement in modern films it manages to be fresh, hip and exciting without ever tiring out your audience - if you go r into this movie with a desire to participate actively analyze and mysterious details. If so, then it is definitely not a movie you should see. If, on the other hand, you are open, creative and alert, will definitely appreciate and get a kick out of this. Memorial is an old-fashioned film noir-type mystery thriller with intriguing, ingenious twist: equipping the entire film with a style that mirrors the protagonists own mental state, while the poor viewer (s) own perspective. It is masterfully shot and edited in such a way that it is presented chronologically backwards (the two originally separate, parallel stories - the most important thing, shot in color, the bake t-chronological narrative with scenes intercut with those of the second story, which played more like a documentary, shot in black and white, and mostly occurs inside the motel room with the main character narrating, talking about the effects of his condition, etc.) While the average viewer can already be put off by such a complicated, confusing format very original premise that is well worth the effort to calculate out.Acting is solid across the board, including writing, directing, etc., but the special glory should be extended to the many talented editor Dody Dorn, who successful in putting all these fragments together and helps in smooth flow, healthy way that is not easy to pull off.One of the most memorable (sorry , could not help getting into a bad joke) films are likely to ever see, Memento is an instant classic because of its groundbreaking narrative style and impressive dramatic shades. For those jaded moviegoers looking for something to keep them awake, interested, and keep thinking it might be a better choice than this movie. |
