Screenwriters rarely develop a distinctive voice that can be recognized from movie to movie, but the ornate imagination of Charlie Kaufman (Being John Malkovich, Adaptation) has made him a unique and much-needed cinematic presence. In Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, a guy decides to have the memories of his ex-girlfriend erased after she's had him erased from her own memory--but midway through the procedure, he changes his mind and struggles to hang on to their experiences together. In other hands, the premise of memory-erasing would become a trashy science-fiction thriller; Kaufman, along with director Michel Gondry, spins this idea into a funny, sad, structurally complex, and simply enthralling love story that juggles morality, identity, and heartbreak with confident skill. The entire cast--Jim Carrey, Kate Winslet, Kirsten Dunst, Elijah Wood, Mark Ruffalo, Tom Wilkinson, and more--give superb performances, carefully pitched so that cleverness never trumps feeling. A great movie. --Bret FetzerCustomer reviews:  Wonderful, 2008-11-17
This fim is truly amazing. It really makes you stop and think about life and relationships. Its especially telling if you watch this with a partner and it brings back all your best memories.
 how did you all WATCH this?, 2008-11-12
I could watch this for only 3/4 hour - and I mean watch, because it certainly didn't engage any other part of my brain, except the bit which was struggling in the first 20 minutes to try to catch what was being said above a cacophany of wind instruments which seemed determined to drown out any clarity - ok, ok... I do have some hearing problems, but I am ok with 95% of films and anyway I have never not watched a film because of dialogue difficulties - if it had carried on in that vein I would have seriously hacd to consider switching it off but I concluded that maybe I didn't miss much that was important - so I carried on till the plot started shaping up - until I realised that it was pitched at the mentality of a 12 year old ( ok an advanced 12 year old ) - it certainly wasn't pitched at me - I like to be entertained or amused or'something'.
I watch loads of films - the only ones I have given up on have been a small number of American so-called comedies.......... when will I learn!
