An incredible blend of romance, comedy, science fiction, and drama, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is an incredible film. Director and writer Charlie Kaufman continues to prove why he is one of the most talented people in HollywoodAn incredible blend of romance, comedy, science fiction, and drama, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is an incredible film. Director and writer Charlie Kaufman continues to prove why he is one of the most talented people in Hollywood with this one as the direction and writing are both perfect. The entire cast is great, but especially Jim Carrey, Kate Winslet, and Kirsten Dunst. The cinematography and limited special effects here are also pitch perfect. A meditation on love and memory, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is a film that sees a man learn he can erase the memory of a girl from his past and forget they ever had anything and after learning she has done the same to him, he opts to go for it, but quickly discovers that he does not want to go through it.

*spoilers*
Overall, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind argues that it is better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all. Though love hurts and the end of it can leave you broken, the good memories and even the bad ones are part of who you are and, as such, are invaluable. If they just did not happen, you would lose a major piece of yourself. The nonlinear narrative of the story also poses an interesting question on the repeating nature of love and history as a whole. If we are unaware of it, we are doomed to repeat it. Finally, the film argues that though love may hurt and leave us with sad memories and "scars", it is ultimately worth it it, because of the good they can cause.
*end spoilers*

As a whole, those reasons and more are what make Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind such a fantastic film and one that is sure to touch you in some way.… Expand

Eternal Sunshine offers a traditional love story, while constantly throwing new ideas and brilliant invention at us. It's one of the most original movies ever made, yet it's also classic in the touching way it connects the two lovers.

Thanks to some vibrant imagery and clever optical trickery from Michel Gondry and the fantastically innovative screenplay from Charlie Kaufman, "Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind" elevates itself above the common romantic rabble.

Two people, who are far from perfect, in love with each other. And the psychological hurdles they face to hold onto each others' memories. I'm glad I got to watch a psychological thriller with a laid-back, humorous tone. One of those gems of movies you shouldn't miss at any cost.… Expand

The direction is Gondry at his best. He simply follows them around during dramatic scenes and uses cinematic symbolism to show the mood. The script jumps through twists and turns until you feel happy and sad at the same time. Jim Carrey will never win an Oscar due to the fact that the Oscar's will never give a nomination to the guy who was in Dumb and Dumber but him and Winslett deliver powerhouse performances that carry the movies low budget shots.

Joel, played by Jim Carry, skips work and goes for a walk on a beach in a cold winter day. He meets Clementine, played by Kate Winslet, and falls in love with her while both are unaware of a common past that connects them together. In theirJoel, played by Jim Carry, skips work and goes for a walk on a beach in a cold winter day. He meets Clementine, played by Kate Winslet, and falls in love with her while both are unaware of a common past that connects them together. In their relationship, Joel and Clementine experience love, happiness, intimacy as well as hate, sadness, and insecurity.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is not a just love story, it is spectacular take on why we love and hate others, why we remember and forget, and why we make connections and we break up. Joel shares his most intimate and private moments of his life with Clementine to stay connected to her, moments that makes him feel embarrassed, weak, or insecure (for example, the flashback to the bird scene). These little details in their relationship seems unimportant in short run and their efforts to stay connected seems futile because they are not changing anything immediately. In the long run, however, these trivial moments are the main reason behind their behavior, decisions, moods, and emotions (for example , Jim Carry decision to take a different train). The more they open up and the more private moments they share, the stronger the bond between them becomes.

This movie complements the Joel and Clementine story with other characters' stories who are experiencing similar problems in their relationships. The development of their story makes this movie even more engaging, and extremely fun to watch. Kirsten Dunst' character and her relation with her colleagues, particularly, questions morality of certain actions that seem innocuous and helpful in first glance but can have unintended consequences.… Expand

(If there is any community that will embrace cloning itEternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind: 8 out of 10: Screenwriter Charlie Kaufman is in a league of his own. If cloning is ever allowed in the United States we need to clone Mr. Kaufman. (If there is any community that will embrace cloning it will be Hollywood. Name any other place in America where nepotism is a religion. Hiring your own clone is the ultimate in nepotism.)

Charlie Kaufman has found that fine line between realistic dialog and interesting dialog. Characters talk, fight and fall in love just like they do in real life. But unlike most movies that try to mirror real life speech Kaufman makes it interesting. (Of course it helps that Kaufman's always throws in the bizarre such as adulterous homicidal book authors addicted to sniffing Angel Trumpet or people entering John Malkovich's head.)

Now just imagine if a Kaufman clone could, oh I don't know, help George Lucas write romantic dialog. (If there is anyone who occupies the opposite side of the good dialog screen writing scale it's Lucas. His dialog is so wooden it would embarrass a marionette. Plus think of the Variety headline "Kaufman Clone helps pen Clones")

Oh the movie. Eternal Sunshine has some great performances especially by a subdued Jim Carrey. (This should surprise but after his brilliant turn in Man on the Moon, the only real surprise is how with his quiet desperate performance you forget its Carrey.) There is a really good subplot about the goings on at a mind erasure clinic. (The movie sensibly sets it up as a no big deal four-man operation like one of those laser eye surgery places in a strip mall.)

And there is a really realistic romance between Carrey and Kate Winslet that blows most movies away. Currently ranked thirty-second greatest movie of all time by the IMDb. Eternal Sunshine is one movie you won't be able to get out of your head.… Expand

The acting is very good, especially by Jim Carrey standards but I think that Clementine, Kate Winslet character is played over the top. My biggest problem with this movie is the pacing and the order that the script is played, the scenes where the main protagonists are together are very good but when it comes to the secondary characters they don`t feel as important to the plot. They feel like exposition characters just to set the plot in motion. I feel that the soundtrack is also lacking especially not a single licensed track is memorable and in a romance movie that is a really important part of your movie. Overall this isn`t a BAD movie perse but, I think that this movie lacks in the areas that romance movies should really work, Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet do have chemistry but a convoluted narrative ruined the movie for me.… Expand

In this film, he tries to forget a failed romance with the irreverent Clementine (Kate Winslet) through a procedure that is, in practice, a brainwashing. But he regrets that with the process ongoing and tries to find a way to keep his memories. The film seems quite original and, in fact, the script has merit for trying to create a romantic comedy on a premise so different from the normal, but a large part of the plot is highly predictable. Another problem was the dialogues. In a film so light and so romance-oriented why insist on profanity or heavy slang? Some special effects look good, in particular the fading things and the passages from one memory to another at random, allowing us to have a wider knowledge of Joel's past. The soundtrack is quite kitsch and match the taste of both main characters but displeases the ears of the audience. Carrey was perfect in the main character, maintaining a good chemistry with Winslet, who also didn't disappoint. The rest of the cast (where we can see Elijah Wood, Kirsten Dunst or Tom Wilkinson) do their job satisfactorily, but leaving room for the main actors to shine.… Expand

However, when the people were disappearing at the train station it looked pretty stupid. The weird effects on Patrick in the dark dream sequence looked very awkward. The baby Joel and Clementine were pretty stupid looking in the first scene, yet also funny. The scenes that came after were really playful and funny. The scene where the books were slowly whiting out, was a very well done and interesting effect. It was cool how as the memories strayed from their original paths, they held elements in common with others, both prior and unrealized. Unfortunately, I cannot appreciate this film to its fullest, since I am young, and thus I have much to learn, and much to lose. Despite this, I can recognize truly stellar performances by both Carry and Winslet. I less so enjoyed Ruffalo and Dunst, although, they were still well cast. The film handled many interesting concepts very well, while also portraying a world wherein people can run away from any problem. The way that this movie handled its circular narrative was quite unique since the time in between the start and the end is not necessarily definite. I don't think that I can stress enough how this movie handles what it shows and how it shows it. It seems as if everything shown has a purpose, and is then later drawn upon again. See this movie if you enjoy conceptual pieces, or are a fan of romance.… Expand

It just may be was a bit too quirky for its own good halfway through. Although Mary's subplot gave some depth to her character, I think it wasn't perfectly placed.

Charlie Kaufman is easily one of the greatest screenwriters of all time. There was one part of the story I wasn't a fan of and that was the scenes where Jim Carrey acts like a literal 4 yr, but this didn't really affect my experience. overall I give this movie a 10/10.… Expand

It is a comedy, but the pain felt by the two main characters is juxtaposed so beautifully that it tugs at a string to the heart. To all the people out there hurting after the end of a relationship that they truly worshiped, this movie will bring you home. We all cried and wished none of this had ever happened, we all wished we could dig into our head and just erase all the memories of our ex-significant others. And that is what this beautiful movie is about.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. With a masterful screenplay, brilliant directing, and a group of Hollywood favorites at their best, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is phenomenal. After one watch it’s great, after a second it’s even better, and after that even better then before. The film is braided with foreshadowing and symbols in a completely non linear time line. The beginning is really the end, and like wise. Nothing bad can be said about the brilliance that is this film.… Expand
