This is the only movie where you can give spoilers without spoiling the movie. At the top of this page, it says, "Some memories are best forgotten." If you've watched the movie and if you truly understand it, then you know that's a spoiler. But an innocent bystander that hasn't seen the movie wouldn't even know it's a spoiler until AFTER they've seen the movie and understood it in full. By then, it's not really a spoiler!!! This is the sign of brilliant movie-making. Only Nolan could concoct such a storyline.

Don't know why this movie is #73 all time. Hated this movie, although not as much as Fight Club. They are both twisted sadistic pieces of crap, although Fight Club more so

Nolan's best. Better than The Dark Knight. He should do more intellectual movies like this. His brother wrote a story which he'd based it off. They could be a team in film like the Cohen Brothers; The Nolan Brothers.

Best ending I've ever seen. This is Nolan at his finest. I've seen it over 10 times and never get tired of it. The way the two timelines converge is perfect. Guy Pearce's best work, and even the supporting cast is excellent. The only movie so far I'd ever give a 10/10.

Fascinating nonlinear mystery about a man with amnesia, with a single-minded determination to find his his wife's killer. Expert film making all around. Pearce is captivating, Pantoliano and Moss are great. A unique puzzle of a film, where you can not wait until the beginning.

Major spoilers (but c'mon, if you're here you've probably already seen it)

This movie is just cinematic masterpiece! A great trail to follow which leaves questions for you to create your own theories until you get to a mindblowing ending that answers some questions yet leaves you with more. Incredibly rewatchable too. It always gives me a new perspective with every viewing, I still get caught off guard by the structure and sequence of events and the film just flies by! Natalie is one of the great movie villains. *REAL SPOILERS ON NOW ON* The boyfriend of a drug dealer (named Jimmy G) that Leonard killed at the story's proper beginning (yet the movies end) who constantly lies and manipulates Leonard before getting him to kill another John G (who told Leonard to kill the first JG). It still leaves me thinking. Can you trust Teddy? Was their a real John G (or Jimmy) ever killed or this is just a neverending cycle of Leonard taking down people named John G? And lastly, who is Sammy Jankins? Real? Figment of imagination? Real yet blurred with Leonard's life? God, I love this movie!
