Memento (2000)

(Ross)
OK, so I'm the last person in the world to see this movie. I'll offer a few observations, and be brief about it.

This is a very good movie. I didn't really enjoy it. The insulin scene is, I think, the most horrifying thing that I've seen since "The Princess and the Warrior," and I found the whole idea of being trapped in the present to be very unsettling. I'm impressed that they made an engaging movie out of a "twist" that could have turned out to be, well, trite. Formally innovative, etc. And I'm glad I saw it. But I don't know that I'll be watching it again.
