^ I NEED to see that movie.
Last night I watched half of Memento, which really ruins it (if you've ever seen the movie or know what it's about).

i'll finish it next weekend....

WHAT?!

You can't watch half and half.
Why didn't you finish it?

You need to watch it from the start if you're gonna rewatch it. It's a hard plot to follow..

I felt the opposite, I thought the 'hero' was a very unusual choice of protagonist and I liked that about him. I also liked that it was set in Johannesburg, again not a typical place to set a sci-fi scenario but it made the whole thing hit a little more close to home for me than usual. I thought not only was it technically and visually appealing but really emotionally wrenching.

I really liked this as well; however, I watched my friend's pirated copy that didn't have any of the alien subtitles. So, needless to say I made up a large portion of the dialogue in my head.

Pretty good, could have been longer. Ending could have offered more closure. Overall it was a great performance from The Dude.
