i find jim carrey really fascinating, he just has this child-like thing about him. it made the movie heaps more engaging cos there were moments where you just find him so innocent and lost, and it really added to the whole bewildered random feel in a foreign yet familiar place thing as well

eternal sunshine of the spotless mind

even though it's old.... i think it's one of the best movies... the actors could've been better but the message of the movie.... phenomenal, truly one of the most original ideas

personally, i think a clinic like that must exist somewhere in the world... but what a concept to be able to erase your memories... what if you just kept erasing eveything from your memories until there was just nothing left... you face a blank everytime. and how they that your experiences make you the person you are, if you can't remember any, does that give you less of an identity? or less sure of your idea of self?

It's a good movie, but since it was released about a year ago I'd say that it hardly qualifies as being old.

i love this movie! It's so... i cant even describe it.. its so original..the effects and stuff are awesome. I think Carrey did an awesome job. The only thing that pissed me off was when i saw the dvd in the stores and the quote on the front said it was the best comedy of the year or something. its not a fucking comedy!!!!

A year is hardly old.

It's a brilliant film, one of my top ten.

i thought this movie was great.I loved it, it was original, and Jim Carey was magic in it. It's one of those films that laves you at the end wondering whether life is real or whether things have happened before, and you don't know, or whether things are preset for us anyways...i don't know, that's what i was left feeling like any ways...awesome awesome movie

i loved it, i watched it twice, cos my mum wanted to see it and it made sooo much more sense the second time, you get to see how it connects more easily.
i love Kate Winslet, her hair was sooo crazy in that movie! and i love Jim Carrey, hes excellent
