Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind

Post by Keverian FireCry »

Saw it earlier, it was very good. All of the acting was really well done and the screenplay and direction is amazing. It's a very imaginative and original movie. I highly recommend it, its very funny, exciting, romantic, sad, and often quite weird. You should see it.

Yeah I saw it last night. Both Bakara and I loved it. It is a new favorite movie for me. Like Kev said the screenplay and direction was really great.

Some folks on the other thread about this film commented on Jim Carrey not being that great of an actor, which I argued against. In this movie, he does an oustanding job imo. Winslet is always fabulous and I loved Elijah Wood as that creepy, pathetic guy. The only person I thought was a little off was Kristen Dunst.

Great film. it's definately not a typical Carrey movie. It also makes it in my favorites collection.

Loved it, very philosophical. Most ppl I know either really love it or really hate it.

Wow... just watched it, absolutely beautiful movie. Charlie Kaufman is a bonafied genius. I thought everyone did a great job, even Dunst :P The camera work was just brilliant. 10 out of 10. I'll definitely watch this many more times to come.

Good movie. I thought the first 20 minutes and last 45 minutes was a step above the rest of the movie which was a little disjointed even considering the subject.

I'm giving this an Aslanna special of 8/10 for mature audiences only. 6/10 for the attention span impaired.

Carry has talent.

Just saw this. Very good and very interesting movie. There's plenty of opportunities for a movie like this to drop me, but it never did.

It's also interesting to watch Winslet take on an American accent. I forgot she was british until I browsed through the dvd extras.

the 'buzz' about this movie kept me far away from it for a long time after release... which sucks, because i saw it a few months ago and it was excellent.
