Two brilliant aspects of memento are the narration style and the editing. They have aptly used the narration style to put the audience from the main character point of view and also have done the editing so well (which can make or break a great movie)

About Ghajini – I would care less if they have copied the same narration style (after all this movie has redefined the screenplay in the history of cinema). (and yes from the trailer i can see there are many similarities between the two movies already). What would be interesting to watch is how much of originality and creativity has been fit into this narration style (after all they got a very good team and these ppl are capable of doing it). Success simply depends on whether or not they succeeded in keeping the audience glued to the screen without getting them frustrated.

Having said that, if they just copied the same screenplay and same story its bound to be a flop for the very reason Lazy Geek said.

Guru,
Memento didn’t do that well in the box office.Most of the people discovered only when it was released in the video stores.But it went on to has become a cult classic.It is a very unique movie with a brilliant script.

Memento CANNOT be taken in its original version for tmail audience.For people who rejected virumandi as it was repeating,this movie would be too much to take.Iam sure there wont be much repeatitive scenes, but they will use some other technique to show the hero has short term memory loss.Well double action and 6 songs are already a proof that, it wont have much resemblence ot the original.

Momento did it’s rounds as a indie movie a year before it was released as a main stream Hollywood movie. It has some amazing response in the indie fans just like “bend it like beckham” that they went main stream. It shows more people didnt think it was a over the top

but there are just too much similarities between Memento and Ghajini.Surely, in the SunTv interview also, Murgadoss said that the narative style has been made different, and Surya also said that the narrative style is different for this movie. It was not made different, it was copied from Memento, and if you see the stills, Surya has words written on him, just like in Memento. Offcourse, Murgadoss must have done some change to the story to adapt to the tamil audience, hope it works out well in the end.

Maamu, every body is talented enough, except for the fact that constraints siphon off part of the talent and repalces the half with garbage.
Hope murugados doesn’t compromise on the screenplay and include 1 rain dance, 1 comedy track and a mother sentiment.
I would aprpeciate Bala in his efforts to break the mould.
