Battle of Memories

The people who gave it high ratings must watch only 1 movie every 5 or 10 years. you cant tell its a chinese movie except for the chinese faces, everything else is a copy of something else or other already done in movies. copying parts of 10 great sci fi or thriller movies doesnt make it a great movie. the chinese movie industry has more money to spend then hollywood and still really cant turn anything decent to put on the screen. you're lucky if you find a good movie out of 10. the movie gets 5 stars because it is professional but that draws the line. theres also the requisite pop songs they like putting into movies...dont matter if pop songs dont belong in a thriller movie. they try to sell you everything at one time ...lol. again...a professionally done movie with decent actors but so underwhelming and a major copycat of multiple great movies. i love great thrillers and sci fis...sighhh...this had a little potential but sure wasnt it.

Battle Of Memories is a very good movie. It keeps you guessing until the very end. You will guess a number of times as you watch this movie but I don't think you'll figure it out. It's very engrossing and a little disturbing. It's a sci fi crime 'whodunnit' drama set in the near future. Excellent acting and cinematography.

This is a Chinese movie but I saw it with subtitles in English as well as Mandarin.

The actors gave great performances, especially Yang Zishan, Huang Bo, Xu Jinglei, Duan Yihong, Hsu Wei‑ning. The acting plus the cinematography made this intellectual sci-fi movie compelling and very believable.

Clever use of plot twists. As with sixth sense, you watch it twice to check for clues missed on first viewing.

Chinese/ Thai co-production about a man, going through a divorce, who has a procedure done which removes select memories from his mind. He later has the surgery reversed, to regain his lost memories, and finds his memory is now somehow linked with that of a killer, possibly a serial killer. A major problem is that he sees the memories the killer has * in first person *, so when he attempts to tell the local authorities, he becomes prime suspect in the double murder, and thrown into Hannibal Lector's plexiglass holding cell.

The subject of memory has always fascinated me, as I am burdened with an eidetic memory, so this film's premise obviously intrigued me, the surgical removal of painful memories, pleasurable memories, unforgettable things, things best left forgotten, so I enjoyed this film, but found it to be uneven, and a bit overlong.

An interesting and stylishly filmed little SciFi/dystopian murder mystery.

Full of interesting twists and turns. So much so that it is really really difficult to follow, particularly with subtitles.

Other reviewers mentioned plot holes and there were probably many but given my general confusion I don't think it mattered.

I honestly enjoyed the movie more for its Hitchcock cinematic style and score. It was fun.
