Editorial Review:

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 Fetzer

• I Can't Get This One Out Of My Head
  I watched this film over two days ago, and have found it increasingly difficult to think of anything else since. An unnassuming, honest, off-beat, film , 'Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind' is one of those movies that will grow on you and make you want to watch it time and time again, and is intelligent and thought-provoking enough to keep you captivated on repeated viewings.

• Extremely Original
  I am very critical with movies and Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind is definitely one of my favourite 3 films ever. It is not only very romantic and original, it is mind-blogging. It is about the inaccuracy of memory, how you want to change your past, your painful experiences.
  Jim Carrey is perfect, although I particularly do not like him in other movies. I saw it about 4 times and would definitely recommend it.
  

• Heart wrenching drama
  Jim Carrey (The Truman show) stars as Joel, a man who learns his girlfriend has had him erased from her memory. Not wanting to suffer, Joel goes in for the same procedure.
  Eternal Sunshine is a true romantic drama, telling a realistic and dramatic tale of relationships, through the good and the bad, and with some stunning performances, writing and direction, make a wonderful heart wrenching drama.
  Carrey gives one of his finest performances as Joel, a man wanting to erase his girlfriend from his... more info

• Incredible!
  I very rarely write reviews of films or books that I have read but I felt that an exception had to be made for this incredible cinematic experience.
  The plot of eternal sunshine is hugely intricate but is clearly meant to be confusing, the reason I expect for many of the one star reviews, but once you get past this you see both how well written and wonderfully acted this film is. Although Jim Carey's performance was undoubtably good, I feel that Kate Winslet's performance has been hugely underrated.... more info
