That's mainly because it's an awful piece of film making.

Great film but I couldn't watch it a 2nd time, never want to put myself through the ringer like that again.
My submission: The Baader Meinhof Complex
I would recommend Open Your Eyes (Abre Los Ojos) which is the original Spanish version over the remake.

If you like those 2 films then...
- Look at Nolan's other films, such as Memento and The Prestige.
- You might enjoy Usual Suspects, Fight Club, Primal Fear - if you want twists
- Primer will make your head spin if that's what you want
Edit: Oh, just seen recommend Open Your Eyes (Abre Los Ojos). This too.

The Machinist for me too, utterly brilliant.

Yep, Primer is a mind-**** alright. Have watched several times and still not sure I understand it.

I think I get it, but that's after watching it an insane amount of times. Still, explaining it in words I'm sure will be another challenge in itself!

the matrix?
Yes, The Matrix.

Has nothing on the book....which wasn't spectacular to begin with.
+1 for The Machinist and Memento though.
While I enjoyed The Prestige, it's not something that makes you think that much - not compared to the two above anyway.
