Memento Movie
I really ended up liking this movie. It was really hard trying to follow along because it was so jumbled up and it was even harder watching it on different days split between our classes, which was unavoidable. In the beginning of the movie, I didn't really like it because I didn't understand why it was jumping around so much. When I connected the movie with the story and that the movie was moving backwards, I started piecing everything together and started to really enjoy the movie. It was a bit too violent for eight o'clock in the morning, but I liked being able to predict what I thought was going to happen or in this movie predicting what happened to make the previous scene happen (since it was going backwards). The only part that I didn't like was the end. I was disappointed in the way the movie ended-- I thought it would at least go back until his wife's death and when Lenny was talking to Teddy in the end, it raised a lot of questions for me about what actually happened which didn't get answered for me. I think that could also be attributed to the fact that the story went backward. I could have seen the answer to my questions but because we were moving backwards, by the time they got raised in the end I forgot the details to answer my own questions. Overall, I thought that the movie was a good one and I would watch it again.
