Memento (2000)

 
I wasn't interested in seeing this, but I exchanged some emails with my cousin. He recommended it and he said he'd watch some crap I suggested so I owed him. Everyone else seemed to like it. I remember when it came out but didn't realize how long it had been.

Sitting through the first half, I wondered what people were so excited about. Got more interesting toward the end. The story was told in reverse to simulate the memory loss, I guess, but I don't know how much it helped.

A man with no short term memory has to take Polaroid photos and constantly write notes to himself as he hunts the man who murdered his wife and gave him his debilitating brain injury.
