Customer Reviews of Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind (Full Screen Edition)
Just when you thought romantic comedies were unoriginal ... ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND, which I saw tonight in an advance screening, is the most twisted, original romantic comedy I've seen in a long time. Coming from the mind of Charlie Kaufman, this film is luckily more in the vein of BEING JOHN MALKOVICH and ADAPTATION than HUMAN NATURE.
The film, which operates on the premise that people can delete bad relationships from their memories, travels essentially backward down its story's timeline. It examines several key themes regarding compatibility, fate and how our memories can make up who we are.
Jim Carrey, who plays his role of Joel straight rather than wacky, delivers his best and most human performance since THE TRUMAN SHOW. But the movie, thankfully, belongs to Kate Winslet. As Clementine, the girlfriend who Joel wants to either love or forget, Winslet is wacky, colorful and hilarious - the sort of girl you want to either love or strangle.
While their central story plays out mostly within Joel's brain, several equally interesting subplots emerge involving the memory-erasing workers played by Kirsten Dunst, Mark Ruffalo, Elijah Wood and Tom Wilkinson.
The thing I like best about Charlie Kaufman scripts is that I don't always know where they're going but, in the end, they cover all their bases, address all the philosophical questions inherent in their twisted plots and always leave me entertained. ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND is a terrific movie.
Very smart and sweet
I saw the beautiful "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" about 2 weeks ago, but have refrained from writing a review until I thought I knew just what to say about it.
I'm sure you know the plot by now. Joel (played perfectly by Jim Carrey) finds out that his wild ex-girlfriend of 2 years (Another perfect performance by Kate Winslet) has had all her memories of him erased. Hurt and confused, he goes to the same clinic she did to get the procedure done himself. The rest of the movie now swiches back and forth from inside Joel's mind with all memories of Clementine slowly being broken apart (literally) and the sub-stories about the three young erasers actually performing the procedure while Joel sleeps. About halfway through the process, Joel realizes upon reliving the memories with Clementine, that he truly does love her. But when he wakes up he won't remember her. So he tries to hide her in other parts of his mind before it's too late.
This is a very humble film. It knows it's brilliant, but never boasts. It just thrives in it's own genuine originality from beginning to end, unlike some films that seem to shout every 5 minutes, "Isn't this COOL? Look how wacky we are! This is smart! SMART!"
I wasn't sure exactly how they would show Joel's memories being erased and how Clementine would act in them, but it's actually very simple. Since it is in Joel's head, it's not REALLY Clementine he's talking to. The memories are real enough, but the Clementine he interacts with, the one he desperately tries to hide away from the erasers once he realizes he's made a mistake, is just an idea of her. Since this is true, all he has to say is, "Look, I need to hide you from them" and she goes along with it without asking any questions. It's almost dreamlike.
This is definately the sweetest movie I've seen in a long time. It's also funny, real, romantic, and very smart. Remember Jim Carrey's name come Oscar-Time.
Disappointed
I was really expecting this movie to be great from all the hype, and it was anything but that. I really was upset for wasting my time watching the movie. I would definately not recommend this movie to anyone. I really did not enjoy this movie.
