One of those movies that you've gotta see twice

Rating: 9/10 (20 March 2004)

I saw the movie in Orlando in the opening evening. This was a positive surprise for a little movie such as it looked like. Although equipped with shiny, today's movie stars, the sets were very simple and modest. I think the most interesting thing about this movie, from the viewers point of view, is to realise the "point of conciousness" after having seen the movie. You start to suspect that there's something going on, although it's not indicated as clearly as in Matrix, for example. Finally after getting enough clues, the viewer gets back on track and can understand the meaning of the ending. At least after the second viewing, I'm sure! Regardless of the maybe a bit too long and heavy dream sequences, I'd say Eternal Sunshine was a very enjoyable movie and recommendable to everyone.
