Just saw "Memento and "The Usual Suspects." Any other sugestions?

[MisterNi]

I just spent the past 3 hours watching both movies based on recommendations from friends and all I can say is WOW. Both movies really worked your mind even after the movie's over just to better understand what actually happens during the movie. :Q
But anyways, anyone have suggestions for movies that would be similar to either of the above?

I just watched The Usual Suspects too. I'm impressed.

 

[TallBill]

<< fight club, the others, sixth sense >>


i second all of those too! frequency aint bad either... damn, i need to watch less movies..

 

[MisterNi]

Thanks guys, downloading Fight Club as I type this. And it looks like Snatch, Frequency, The Others and Seven are also on the list. (Sixth Sense was one of the movies my anti-social ass actually saw in the theatres.)

If you really want to bend your mind, go watch Pi. Avoid power tools after watching it, though.

oceans 11 and spy games are good

Why does everyone like FightClub? The movie wasn't that great? The plot had huge holes and the ending was really lacking. It's like it was just thrown together. Just cause it had a weird ending, i think people automatically love that movie. But the ending makes you go back and think how stupid it was cause it could have never happened. Maybe thats just me, but a few friends of mine thought the same and so did my wife.

Shawshank Redemption, Run Lola Run, Blade Runner, Pi, Momento.

The thread title says he just watched Memento.


Pi
Way Of The Gun (written by the guy who wrote Usual Suspects)
Suicide Kings
Amongst Friends

If you like Sci-Fi stuff, you might like Dark City. The fundamental premise is very similar to the Matrix (which came later), but it has a much more surreal feel to it IMO. While I liked the Matrix, it seemed like more of an action flick in sci-fi surroundings.

 

[yellowperil]

Pulp Fiction
Go
Run Lola Run
Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels (I think the twists in this movie are better than Snatch)
O Brother, Where Art Thou?

Check out Boondock Saints....along the same lines. Or Resovoir Dogs...that movie is good too!
