I've heard that Irreversible did the backwards plot thing better, that movie is sick as fuck though.
There's also some Korean Movie, don't remember its name, that uses the same chronological storytelling. Don't remember its name.

Does anyone prefer the remake?
Anyone hardly even know there was a remake.

Thanks Chyros, you pretty much saved from having to type a list
I'd also add the Monty Python movies and The Warriors to that

Nah, I loved how the movie shifted completely from "Romance with a somewhat interesting idea" to "Mindscrew Science Fiction" from one minute to the next.
Why, you think it was bad?
And City of God is amazing, I love how they managed to put so much plot and history into 2 hours.
And FYI: I don't do drugs, I'm this way naturally

Meh, I liked it very much. The movie, not the SoB Sacrifice.
It seems to be a bit of an opinionsplitter though.

V is good, but it's far more preachy and less ambigious than the Comic Book.
It does some things better though.

I was referring to the technical aspects of the film. I agree with you that Aliens is by far the more entertaining
