Pulp Fiction-I had to watch it 3 different times, finally figuring out the plot started at the end and worked its way backwards

Memoirs of a Geisha- I couldn't understand those Geisha women when they said their lines, especially the old lady who was always smoking her pipe

3. Syriana- although I have only seen it once
I'm sure if I saw it again I would get more of the story. It was meant to be confusing- and it succeeded.

4. Syriana, though I really liked it.

Now that I think of it, Memento and The Good Shepherd as well. Good movies, but I am easily befuddled.

5. Pretty much anything by David Lynch
Also most chick flicks.

6. Black Hawk Down
I know the plot, but have a hard time keep everybody straight. They all look alike with their helmets on.

9. The Usual Suspects
It's one of my favorite movies. I kind of like that the more you watch it, the more you uncover.

It started off like a Hallmark woman in crises movie,then turned techno thriller then it morphed into the X-Files.
Strange movie.
