But I disagree it's "weak".

Mulholland Drive's certainly non-linear. Lynch isn't very interested in exploring straight forward narrative - which all the above films are, even though they are vriously comlex. (Pulp Fiction only "seems" complex, althbough it is ingenious...and busy. It's still pretty straightforward, merely interweaving time frames. Memento is multilayered but still linear, just backwards, and lol.)

Lynch has done conventional films - The Straight Story, The Elephant Man - but his heart's not really in that style. Blue Velvet & Mulholland Drive are into the dark side of human conscious and subconscious, exploring a level where linear storytelling will not suffice. If you must have plot and objectivity, better stay away from Lunch's mythopoeic cinematic musings.
