The perfect murder mystery film

It's quite amazing how this film, based on a short story by director Nolan's brother, has turned into such a blockbuster hit. The film feels low budget as its a purely character driven movie and its all filmed on 4 or 5 locations; a motel room, a girl's house, a bar, an abandoned house. But three things make this the ultimate murder-mystery:

1. Acting is completely stellar by ev... read more

"Memory can change the shape of a room; it can change the color of a car. And memories can be distorted. They're just an interpretation, they're not a record, and they're irrelevant if you have the facts."

Christopher Nolan's 1998 feature-film debut Following failed to earn much worldwide recognition for the director, but his follow-up project Memento certainly managed to compensate... read more

Mind-Blowing

“This is a really great film, and it also remains Nolan's best and most solid film to date. It has such a great mood and the mystery is so intriguing. Usually with some of these obscure, almost forced twist endings I am usually bugged but Nolan did everything right here, and he created what may be the best twist ending of all time. Everybody here gives top-notch performance and Nolan's direction is incredible. The entire story is all told backwards but it is very easy-to-follow. Anyways, Nolan created a near-perfect masterpiece that is not only one of the best films of the decade but also one of the best of all time.” read more

“Memento is a slow Mystery drama full of twists, but very good twists. It takes after the style of Pulp Fiction, where the story is backwards so at times it might confuse you. Christopher Nolan did a good job with this movie, it is well Directed, and acting. Guy Pearce is in the lead as Leonard who suffers from memory loss, and after his wife is raped and murdered is just focused on the task of revenge. Guy Pearce did a fantastic job, as did Carrie-Anne Moss as Natalie and Joe Pantoliano as Teddy. This movie is very good, at times slow but worth the look.” read more

Christopher Nolan's Films Ranked (8 movies items)

"Nolan's first masterpiece still remains his best. This film is so complex and it has, in my opinion, one of the greatest twist endings in cinema history. It is one of my all-time favorite films. It has great direction, great acting, and a great script. A true, unique masterpiece. "
