	MEMENTO. A Hollywood Jesus Movie Review
		Memento is one of those films that challenge the viewer to return over and over again.
		Memento gives us cause to reflect on human reliance on texts recorded long ago, texts whose “facts” are no longer verifiable.
		As "Memento" portrays it, it is the quest for the meaning of life which makes us embrace one truth and discard the other.

	Memento review
		So this year the festival must be thanked for placing Christopher Nolan's Memento in the projection room, a film made unique by his reverse montage and the cerebral exercise he provokes in the audience.
		Memento is cut into sequences which, when completed, return to the preceding sequence and so on.
		Memento is without any doubt one of the most captivating films to arrive this year.

	Memento (2000) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Christopher Nolan's "Memento" is truly a rare and exceptional achievement in modern filmmaking in that it manages to be new, fresh, hip, and exciting without ever tiring its audience out - unless you're walking into this film without the desire to participate and actively analyze the mysterious details.
		"Memento" is an old-fashioned "film noir"-type mystery thriller with an intriguing, ingenious twist: outfitting the entire film with a style that mirrors the protagonist's own mental condition while giving the poor viewer(s) his own perspective as well.
		Acting is solid across the board, as is the writing, directing, etc., but special kudos must be extended to the very talented editor Dody Dorn, who successfully managed to put all of these fragments together and help them flow in a smooth, healthy manner that is not easy to pull off.

	SPLICEDwire \| "Memento" review (2001)
		But as "Memento" continues to turn the clock back, we bear witness to all that Leonard doesn't remember: the events that lead him to this blind act of vengeance -- not all of which are what they seem.
		An unforgettable, ingeniously original deconstructionist film noir, "Memento" is meticulously and precisely assembled so that each scene jumps back a few minutes or a few hours to reveal a little more of its mystery.
		Like "Fight Club," "The Sixth Sense" or "The Usual Suspects," the surprises in store once "Memento" reaches the "beginning" are so intensely mind-warping that the immediate desire to watch all the puzzle pieces fall into place all over again is almost an involuntary reflex.

	AboutFilm.Com - Memento (2000)
		These are some of the questions posed in Memento, where Leonard Shelby (L.A. Confidential's Guy Pearce) is cast in the role of a brain-damaged Sisyphus.
		Memento begins with its denouement, and each following narrative segment concludes with the beginning of the previous segment.
		When Memento comes out on DVD, we will be able to program our players to play the movie in its proper chronological order, and we'll be able to judge better how the story holds together.

	Memento Movie Review by Anthony Leong from MediaCircus.net
		That is exactly how that the protagonist of "Memento", Leonard Shelby (Guy Pearce of "L.A. Confidential"), feels, only in his case, he experiences it all the time.
		"Memento", however, is perhaps the most fascinating and judicious use of a non-linear narrative, since it puts the audience into the shoes of the protagonist.
		Not surprisingly, "Memento" also holds up well in repeat viewings, since it is an intellectual puzzle that rewards the astute viewer with a foreknowledge of where the story is going.

	What is Memento?
		Where Memento differs from traditional journal weblogs is that it stores 'mind map'-style summaries of concepts and resources rather than daily entries.
		Using Memento is deliberately simple, first you enter the knowledge you want to store, then you publish it to your personal webspace.
		Memento is a web-based application that should run on any platform, though you'll need a J2EE compatible webserver.

	DVD Verdict Review - Memento: Special Edition
		After giving Memento a pretty decent "standard" DVD release last September, Columbia TriStar promised an eventual better edition, which they are now making good on with the DVD release of a Special Edition of Memento.
		Memento opens with a tortured soul named Leonard Shelby (Pearce) putting a bullet through the head of a dumbfounded Teddy (Pantoliano) because words written on a Polaroid™ photograph informs Leonard that, "He is the one.
		Memento is a vastly original thriller that lives up to the hype, bringing us an engaging, entertaining and thought-provoking story and is highly recommended.

	Memento (2001): Guy Pierce, Carrie-Anne Moss, Joe Pantoliano, Stephen Tobolowsky - PopMatters Film Review
		Memento offers versions of this instant again and again, situating you alongside Leonard, who can't ever know, for sure, what any given instant means for him.
		Memento's genius lies in just such solicitations to recognize and sympathize with Leonard, to think that maybe his dire designs have a rationale.
		At once disturbing and titillating, Memento is quite unlike the usual filmic experience, leading you to the conclusion you've already seen -- the image of the bloody dead guy, whose name, you discover, is Teddy (Joe Pantoliano) -- but never fully explaining each step along the way.

	Salon.com Arts & Entertainment \| Everything you wanted to know about "Memento"
		The slight possibility that, in a few more weeks, "Memento" could be taking in more in absolute dollars (rather than per-screen dollars) than "Pearl Harbor," despite the full force of the much-vaunted Disney promotional machine, is enough to make one cackle.
		And there's no question that this is a film that encourages repeat business: That is, its puzzles are so intriguing and so impenetrable at first viewing that filmgoers are almost forced to go back for a second look if they want to figure out just what the hell was going on.
		"Memento" is like "The Sixth Sense" and "The Usual Suspects" in that nearly every scene takes on a different meaning once you know where the film is going.

		Like "Jeopardy," the TV game show, "Memento," written and directed by Christopher Nolan, begins by giving you an answer (not to be confused with "the" answer), then lets you try to fill in the question.
		The word "memento" means "remember" in Latin, and the story is about Leonard, so traumatized by a blow to the head after his wife's rape and murder, that he has lost his short-term memory.
		Memento was written and directed by Christopher Nolan and released in 2000.

		I wrote Memento after the 29th time I needed a simple app to keep little text notes on my desktop, and, as usual, found the only programs available seemed to be either crap, not free, a 7Mb download, or some combination of the above.
		Memento is about 345k and does pretty much everything with little desktop notes that I want it to do.
		Memento remembers which notes were visible when you last shut it down, and displays them when you next run it.

		Memento has an intriguing structure and even meditations on the nature of perception and meaning of life if you go looking for them, but it also functions just as well as a completely absorbing thriller.
		With regard to the latter, Memento comes to the same less than revealing conclusion as Spielberg's 'Munich;' revenge is corrosive.
		Memento is the compelling story of a man attempting to find and kill the murderer of his wife.

	MovieCritic.ca - Review - Memento (2000) - ...noitidnoc siht evah I, ees uoY
		Memento's first scene is a good indication of how its story is told: backwards.
		At first, I was a bit distracted by his blonde hair, but that was quickly forgotten as Leonard introduces us to his world of Polaroid snapshots (on which he writes notes, so that he can remember stuff) and body tattoos (of facts about his wife's rape and murder).
		Note: Although Memento's American theatrical run began in March 2001, it was technically released in 2000 (in several film festivals), which explains why it's part of my 2000 listing.

	Memento movie review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		And that's all I can say about Memento without ruining the whole experience for anyone who wants to see it...and that would be a damned shame, since this is one of the most incredible films produced in a long, long time.
		He also wrote the screenplay (based on a short story, 'Memento Mori' by Johnathan Nolan, Christopher Nolan's brother; the story is one of the 'Special Features' on the DVD, and worth reading), creating a tight, fascinating plot that hooks the audience in and keeps us guessing.
		The fragmented technique is one that rarely works...but in Memento, it fosters the atmosphere of a puzzle -- a mystery that we see as an investigator might see.

		In the climax of the art-noir "Memento," Guy Pearce, as a man suffering short-term memory loss investigating the murder of his wife, kills Joe Pantoliano, playing his assistant, after coming to believe that Pantoliano is the real killer.
		It might be wonderful for people who like to come in on the middle of movies, and it's a great way of discussing "tropes" and what have you, but as a way of telling a story it's a bust.
		"Memento" has gotten extraordinary advance reviews, and part of that praise is due no doubt to its being a puzzle movie.

		"Memento" is a film which requires several viewings to appreciate it properly.
		Memento is a great fresh of breath air its original, smart, funny and sick (The scene with the beer jug at the bar)
		Its very well acted, but there are problems and the main one is; it is too long and slow which will turn people off and the second is (not the director or writers fault) that being told backwards does start to get repetitive thats why it should have been shorter.

		Memento's fragmented, complex narrative is skillfully executed, keeping audiences guessing.
		Memento is a thriller for people who are sick of thrillers, a puzzle movie in which the puzzle is actually worth the time and effort to solve.
		Memento is a deliciously taut film noir with more twists than a Twizzler.

		Here, the source object is still there and all that happens is state change.
		So, to restore an object you have to continue to change the object using some algorithms, but then you cannot ensure that the state you get is exactly the previous one - due to hysteresis (it's a known problem of semantics-preserving undo/redo mechanism).
		Memento pattern is the pattern that solves this problem exactly by "dumping the entire state and rereading later".
