Date: Saturday, March 5th, 2011 05:44 pm (UTC)My brain is already fried, so perhaps it will have a reverse effect? Ya never know. I'm not very good at thinking, but I will give it a try ;) I need to get rollin' with my movie watching so thank you for the recommendation!

Date: Sunday, March 6th, 2011 01:12 am (UTC)but i guess the main concept is actually quite simple. after witnessing the murder his wife, he become afflicted with acute short term memory condition (He can't form new memories) He became obsessed to kill the man who murdered his wife. now, the confusing part is this film is told in reverse-chronology. We may know how the story ends but it would make much more sense if we know how the story starts - which is the end of the film. Basically you have to be glued on your seat because if you miss one scene, you will not know what is going on.
