no, but Insomnia is made by the same guy. I know every body loved Memento, this should be cool.

What's a Memento? Is it the fresh one?

I have heard that the movie is actually sort of boring. But... this is coming from a man that hasn't seen spiderman yet, so dont take my word for ANYTHING. |

The Salon article makes it look kinda cool... although maybe a little slow.
I saw a theatre-tripod rip of Spiderman out of Japan -- didn't realize it was a tripod rip until I heard an audience laughing, and was like, "what the fuk?" Quality was so-so, but it's actually worth watching again, despite Kirten Dunst and her big stupid head clogging up the frame. Great nipples, though.

Insomnia had great acting, directing, and cinematography, but all in all it left something to be desired. I thought there would be some twist ending or surprise of some sort. Some good knuckle-chewing suspense here and there though. |

Slow? Boring? I have no idea what you people are talking about! I loved both Insomnia and Momento. In fact, I really wish that there were more movies like these. I actually had to pay attention to the plot and remember all the details that I could to follow it and get the most out of it. I loved that. Finally some movies that I could watch without falling asleep from the simplicity.
I loved the unique film techniques, and I only wish the movies had been twice as long as they were. Slow? I do not agree, they were over way too quickly. And I really need to watch Memento again, because I was wondering around the internet and there are a lot of little things wrong (on purpose?) in the movie. Like variations in the license plate. Pardon me if I am being long winded, but I absolutely loved these movies!
If you are looking for something that will stimulate your mind, then these are great movies. If you don't want to think at all go rent "Kung-Pow Enter the Fist". |

Insomnia, was alright...it wasn't boring or anything, but there wasn't any surprises till the twist at the end...Momento, on the other hand was probably the coolest movie I've ever seen...I never thought that they'd make a movie from the end, and go to the begining, and still leave you guessing whats gonna happen till it does... |
