Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind was an interesting film and has an even better title. I wasn't quite sure if I was 'getting' the timelines at the beginning and felt a bit disorientated but ended up being right. Nice film, one of the better romance films I've seen but I suspect I might enjoy it more in a few years, once I'm older. Best Jim Carrey performance I've seen though.

i have a 'must-watch' list, and this movie was on it.

This genre is not my first one, but the screenplay and the visuals are so great. i think it was very hard to make this movie. To watch it was quite entertaining.

Great cast, good director, "you did not see that coming"-ending -> 8/10

@the_guy_with_the_hat I was also thinking it should have been really hard to make this movie. [spoiler]The beginning of it joins parts of their first and second relationships, but it all fits together and seems like a normal couple story... except from moments like Patrick asking if Joel needed any help (at this point I thought Joel was someone mentally unstable who imagines people to be with, and that Clementine was just another one whom he was waiting at some abandoned house, so Patrick asked if everything was ok. But after that Lacuna's letter I discarted that idea)[/spoiler]

If you understand the concept of this movie, you can agree that it is one of the best love stories ever portrayed in film!

If you think the end sucked and thought “what’s the point of them being together again if they already know that they’ll break up after?” than you know nothing about love. You don’t how it is to love someone. They love each other so much that they are willing to do it all over again even if they, in the end, will hate each other. They are willing to suffer just to
have those precious moments of happiness with each other.

Personally I found it very beautiful. And i think this is one of the most accurate representations of what love means and what being in love for someone means.

Jim Carey did an incredible performance and it was so good seeing him do a more dramatic role. And Kate Winslet did an AMAZING job as well! She made me hate the character but also have compassion for her and understand her actions! Believe in this “crazy” woman that it’s a character but could be real person from our world.

I loved it, specially not know anything about the movie when i watched it!

i did love the movie, kate and jim are incredible. but what i loved the most is its concept of love and sometimes it is just about enjoying the process of something, instead of focusing on the result. that’s how love works. i cant wait to recommend it to my friends plus the title…. ugh magical

An interesting concept, that didn't fully work for me. Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind tells the story of romance between characters whom I felt were never fully developed. Usually I love films that play with time and are not necessarily told linearly but in this one, it was just a bit to confusing to the point where even when I figured out the twist I still had a lot of questions. Saying this, to fully understand this film it needs to be watched multiple times. One other thing that held be back from really enjoying this film was the chemistry between the two leads. I never really bought into their relationship, even before their memories were erased. Lastly, the storyline with the doctors only felt as if it were added to advance the main story. Not that this is necessarily bad but I would have liked a little more. All in all, enjoyable movie but not as good as all the praise it gets.

@jba9 Totally agree with your review. Every character felt underdeveloped and felt that, that affair between the Doc and the secretary was a bit unnecessary.

this is a great, original way to explore the concept of unconditional love, or even the concept of soulmates. the fact it keeps you thinking the whole time makes it one of the most interesting romance films that's out there for us to watch as well!! loved it

Definitely one of the most unique love stories ever. It's almost necessary to rewatch this to fully appreciate everything happening. The effects in the dreams are really well done. Jim Carrey is excellent in this dramatic role. Kate Winslet is fantastic too. It has a beautiful ending.

Over-hyped to death. I don't see why this movie has such high ratings, both on here and on RT. The writing was terrible, the exploits of the memory people was unnecessary -- hell, they do this whole procedure in an apartment??Joel tried the whole move to keep his memories in spite of the procedure, only for them to be erased anyway? What was the point?? Patrick was unnecessary. How did Joel and Clementine find each other again? I find it really, really improbable that they'd meet on the train again. And why are they trying to get back together?? They already know their flaws, and it's just going to lead to them breaking up again. Joel's two friends provided nothing to the movie. Overall, this movie was an absolute mockery of cinema. I expected something along the lines of Total Recall, but got 'Child Joel's Escape from the Bullies While Memory Erasers Have Drug-filled Sex Next to his Unconscious Body'. What the fuck? 2 hours of my life wasted. I honestly don't see what any of you people on here are getting from the movie. It was absolute crap. 2/10 rating. Done.

What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it.
