(1 - 45) of 45 OFCS Rating: 95% Fresh Page   1   4/4 "I found Memento to be fresh, playful, amazing, heart-stopping, and, quite simply, the best film of 2001."   ReelTalk Movie Reviews   A. J. Hakari 100/100 "...maravillosa. Un nuevo clásico [Reseña en Castellano]"   Cinenganos   Alex Ramirez A- "It is a film about subjectivity, and so the truth remains just beyond our reach..."   AboutFilm.com   Carlo Cavagna 5/5 "Memento stands on its own as a thriller, but it also works as a profound tragedy, stunning in its portrayal of a man teetering on the edge, though he doesn't even know it."   Filmcritic.com   Christopher Null C- ""Memento" is a crime-revenge story that relies on its one big gimmick."   ColeSmithey.com   Cole Smithey "At once disturbing and titillating."   PopMatters   Cynthia Fuchs 92/100 "Nolan's sophomore effort is a near peerless psychological thriller."   Cinemania   Dan Jardine 3.5/4 "...a film like "Memento" stands out, dares to challenge, and ultimately gives birth to a new mold of storytelling. It is the jackhammer for our frozen imaginations."   Cinemaphile.org   David Keyes B- "This is a sparkling but forgettable film."   Ozus' World Movie Reviews   Dennis Schwartz 3/4 "Christopher Nolan's film is a meditative study of the duplicituous nature of memory."   Slant Magazine   Ed Gonzalez A "Fantastically taut, crafty and utterly original."   EricDSnider.com   Eric D. Snider 4/4 "A dizzying array of brilliance, an exercise in brain stamina and one of the year's best films."   eFilmCritic.com   Erik Childress A "Few films this year have been so dizzyingly complex, and none so richly rewarding."   Film Blather   Eugene Novikov A- "Sharply written, ingeniously constructed, strikingly shot and fast-paced, Memento is at once a satisfying mental game and an exhilarating cinematic stunt."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek "A puzzle thriller about a man with amnesia that turns out to be an intriguing probe of identity, loss, mental instability, mystery, and trust."   Spirituality and Practice   Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat 4/4 "When it comes to making a Top 10 list for 2001, one title I won't forget is Memento."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli 4/4 "an unnerving, but deeply penetrating experience that elevates what could have been a routine mystery thriller into a meditation on the slippery nature of reality itself"   Q Network Film Desk   James Kendrick 10/10 "The movie is a trip."   Window to the Movies   Jeffrey Chen "Worthy of repeated viewings."   Screen It!   Jim Judy 10/10 "A genuinely original film which makes you want to see it over and over and over again."   JoBlo's Movie Emporium   JoBlo 7/10 "Films so seldom take chances anymore, it’s refreshing to see one that at least tries for something different."   DVDTown.com   John J. Puccio 3.5/4 "Brillantemente dirigida y tremendamente innovadora, es una de esas cintas que, literalmente, lo dejarán con el ojo cuadrado."   Moviola   Jorge Avila Andrade 5 "This is one of the best movies I've seen in years. I haven't felt as exhilarated coming out of a movie since 1998."   Cinerina   Karina Montgomery B+ "Nolan has a magician's flair for distracting his audience's attention while he accomplishes his trickery."   Reeling Reviews   Laura Clifford 4.5/5 "A convoluted tour-de-force."   TV Guide's Movie Guide   Maitland McDonagh 4/4 "A completely engrossing experience that demands and deserves multiple viewings."   Mark Reviews Movies   Mark Dujsik "It does work, brilliantly. Mind-blowingly."   Flick Filosopher   MaryAnn Johanson 4/4 "A film that simply gets so much right that there doesn't seem to be anything of real worth left to say about it once you see it."   TheMovieReport.com   Michael Dequina 4.5/5 "The structure works because it manages to put the viewer in the same state as Leonard."   Goatdog's Movies   Michael W. Phillips, Jr. 4/4 "One of the coolest, twistiest pieces of movie mystery ever made."   Aisle Seat   Mike McGranaghan 5/5 "Um grande exercício de lógica e técnica narrativa."   Cinema em Cena   Pablo Villaca 5/5 "The film is cool, contemplative, a puzzle movie in which you see the finished puzzle right up front and then watch as it disassembles itself."   eFilmCritic.com   Rob Gonsalves A "Walking out of Memento, we can be glad that we don't share Leonard's amnesiac condition; it's the kind of film you don't want to forget."   Flipside Movie Emporium   Rob Vaux 3/4 "Kudos to writer-director Christopher Nolan (co-written by Jonathan Nolan) for coming up with a very original film."   Laramie Movie Scope   Robert Roten 10/10 "A joyously twisted Rubik's Cube of a movie. One of the year's best films."   eFilmCritic.com   Scott Weinberg C- "Intriguing and accomplished as it was, Memento left me unpersuaded that this trip was really necessary."   Decent Films Guide   Steven D. Greydanus 9/10 "It's a weird, murky thriller that toys with your mind, culminating in an unsettling universal truth: "I have to believe that, when my eyes are closed, the world's still here.""   www.susangranger.com   Susan Granger 3.5/4 "An engaging twist on the thriller genre."   Oscar Guy   Wesley Lovell 4/4 Read review   Big Picture Big Sound   Joe Lozito 4.5/5 Read review   ToxicUniverse.com   John A.
