Memento

Christopher Nolan is well known for creating thought provoking action thrillers,  and Memento lived up to that hype.  The movie made no sense while you are watching it because of the backwards timeline throughout the film.  But when the film was over it made complete sense and it still made ou think about what just happened.  You learn that the main character lies to himself and he keeps killing people that he chases after but he keeps blaming it on John G, you also learn that he creates a lie about what actually happens to his wife because he always says remeber Sammy Jenkis but in the end we learn that it was actually him who was the one who did that so it makes you think that he actually remembers everything but he chooses what to remember and what not to remember.  My favorite thing in this movie is how you see the movie through the eyes of leonard and just like in punch drunk love you get to better understand their point of view.
