I was disappointed

Rating: Null/10 (2 June 2004)

If you are able to accept the basic premise of this film (not an easy task, IMO) you will be forced to endure painfully long repetitive sequences involving the two lead characters' relationship. I found this rather tedious and just didn't care much about this couple. The two bozos entrusted to perform the herculean task of "memory erasing", were just plain annoying. Yeah, two horny teen-agers, jumping up and down on beds, s***faced drunk, while performing a delicate medical procedure? And what the hell was Tom Wilkinson doing in this film? The affair that he had in the film was quite believable, don't ya think? Elijah Wood is used as a weak plot device and the more I think about it, the more ridiculous this movie becomes. Credit to Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet for doing the best they could with the material, but it just didn't work for me.
