A friend of mine brought this movie over last night and me and 7 friends watched it. Wow! This is one of the more interesting movies I've seen lately. One thing is for sure. You can't get everything on the first viewing, and you have to pay attention through the entire movie.

When I saw the picture "undeveloping" in the opening scene, I knew the events in the movie were going to be presented backwards.

It's a neat way to tell a story.

this is probably old news, but...

The chronological order of the movie can be seen in the special edition DVD (the one cased in the blue medical folder):

--Insert Disc two from the Limited Edition set, then select the clock.

--Select answer "c" 5 times (The actual answers have nothing to do with the navigation)

--When you reach the question where you put the pictures in order of the woman fixing her tire, put them in REVERSE order (3, 4, 1, 2), rather than the correct order, and you will be taken to the Chronological version of the film, complete with backwards credits and the opening scene in forward motion.

From what I remember, you can't skip chapters, or pause the movie in this mode, but it's been awhile.
