This movie centres on Leonard Shelby, a man on a mission to hunt down the killer of his wife, but with one SMALL problem.....he suffers from short term memory loss. Every painstaking detail of his hunt is LOGGED in his own unique style, every clue written down so that he will never forget.

The movie switches a lot and does need some attention, but if you stick with it you will be rewarded. This is a classic movie that uses modern film making techniques to keep you emersed in the story line and a unique approach to telling that story.

If, however, you feel that you do not want patch the story together, there is a hidden easter egg that plays the movie in a different chronolgical reference.

Well worth adding to your collection and (like me) enjoy the experience over and over again.

Nice review, I thought this was a good film. But I'm pretty sure it's actually called 'Memento' as in the DVD picture, so maybe you (and Ciao) have got that bit wrong?
