Eternal Sunshine--No Spoilers... - jimbow8 - 05-10-2004 Tim Hatch Wrote:It seems as if there is no in-between for this movie. It's either loved or hated. I thought it was fantastic. I did notice a couple of people walk out on it, and have talked to others that liked it that noticed the same thing.Another recent movie that seems to be like that is Punch-Drunk Love. I loved it, but most of the other people I know that have seen it (including the ones I saw it with) absolutely hated it.

I've hated Jim Carrey in everything -- even his so-called "serious" roles where he still manages to degenerate into slapstick -- and I really liked him in Eternal Sunshine.... Give it a shot.

I enjoyed PDL, and have taken some ribbing for it.

Give it a shot. I just saw the trailer to "A series of unfortunate events" the movie based on the Lemony Snickett childrens books. The books are teriffic. Jim Carrey is nauseating as ever playing the same old boring character - himself. Casting him as Count Olaf is as criminal as it would be to cast him as RJ. I hate him!!! Eternal Sunshine--No Spoilers... - fpw - 12-30-2004 Finally saw it last night. I was surprised at how good Carrey was, but my hat is off to Charlie Kaufman. Anyone who's written or tried to write a screenplay has to be blown away by this script. How he got this down on paper...I don't know. But all the while I was enjoying the jigsaw cuts and seesawing through time, I was thinking he was going to blow the ending. I had no idea where it was going but I was sure he'd blow it. He didn't. He found a perfect symmetry. The WGA nominations are coming up. This gets #1 from me. Eternal Sunshine--No Spoilers... - Maggers - 12-30-2004 fpw Wrote:Finally saw it last night.

How he got this down on paper...I don't know. I agree! One of the reasons I love movies written by Charlie Kaufman - Adaptation, Being John Malcovich, and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. - is that I don't know where he is going to end up. They are so rich and complicated in their structure and unique. Eternal Sunshine--No Spoilers... - Kenji - 03-19-2005 Just saw the movie today in theater. This is wonderful! Jim Carey and Kate Winslet did very good acting. I like "Trueman Show" and "Man on the Moon", but this one was.......awesome. Now I understood why Charlie Kaufman took Academy award. I want to see his brain(mind). I want to know why he can write such a weird and wonderful story....Oh, I saw it. I saw "Adaptation". That was hilarious. |
