of course I agree with all the Kevin Smith mentions and I thought Memento was great. Memento left me totally disorientated afterwards and anything that can play with my mind that much gets my thumbs up.
I will throw into the ring:
Strange Days - much underrated imho. Excellent performances, good premise, good amount of action and a great directoral debut. The crowd scene at the end is admirable just for the organisation. We have watched it over and over and still like it. I worked in cinema when it came out and the trailers put me off but I realised when I saw it that they were selling a different movie than the one they actually made.
