Touching movie

Rating: Null/10 (25 May 2004)

This is one of the most touching movies I have ever seen. Jim Carrey acts at his best. Whoever reads this, go and watch this movie, and then start thinking why we all need memories - they make us the persons we are!
At first it seems like a typical boy-meets-girl story. A man and a woman falling in love. But then it turns out they had been knowing each other, they had separated and wanted to forget bad memories.
When, however, Joel's memories are to be deleted, he realizes that he does not want to lose them. He tries to escape, as if you try to wake up during a nightmare when you feel you are dreaming.
The story moves back and forward as in a dream, it does not seem to be logical, but it is. Kaufmann makes the implausible seem plausible!
