Well thought production that has its own character although it's not for everyone

Rating: 7/10 (19 November 2013)

Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet's union was pretty odd for me. Thinking the goofy odd Ace Ventura meeting the romantic and emotional hearted Rose from Titanic to be in the same movie. Honestly throughout the movie, it was pretty depressing for me. The fact that the universe provides the opportunity for someone to delete certain memory from you is pretty scary. On the other hand the director Michel Gondry put an interesting setting of the movie. I noticed many times the background music is louder than the the actor's voice. At first it bothers me, but then i see the point. It was all about creating an important and key scenes using mostly the music. The second half of the movie is a little twisty , meaning that there is so much going on for a simple purpose, for example like having 3 places can fall in one scene. The ending was pretty emotional for me, but it was a well-constructed story. I'd give a 7 because not everybody can follow or would enjoy the movie as much, but on the other hand the movie has its own character, not by the plot, but by the cinematography. I'm sure it takes a major thinking process to make this kind of movie. Jim Carrey surprisingly maintained his character pretty well without being somewhat funny. Eternal Sunshine and the Spotless Mind is a well done. Full of art and thought although it's not really for everybody.
