It was trying to be too hip and cool and new. It failed. The plot is weak and bounces around too much. Weak acting and character development.... Full review

Memento is unique and challenging. The backwards structure of the movie allows us to go into the mind of the main character, Leonard, who suffers from short-term memory loss. We are seeing scenes occur before knowing what has just happened, which... Full review

Ghajini is a re-imagining of Christopher Nolan's Memento (although its makers refuse to acknowledge this source), about a formerly wealthy CEO who suffers from short-term memory loss after a gang boss attacked him and murdered his girlfriend.
While those of us Stateside spent Christmas weekend looking at action movies like Valkyrie and The Spirit perform disappointingly at the box office ( The Spirit was a complete fail, debuting at #9 at the BO) against family movies like Marley & Me and Bedtime Stories , ... Full Review
