Emotional and thought provoking

Rating: 10/10 (3 June 2004)

I have seen this movie 4 times and I think it is one of the best films ever made. It makes you think about all the relationships you've ever had in the past and what you could have done differently during the highs and lows.
I suppose it is bound to affect different people in different ways according to how their previous relationships have panned out, but it left me with an amazingly uplifting feeling.
Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet were perfectly cast and I found myself totally believing in their characters and wanting them to be happy with themselves and each other.
All the supporting cast were excellent and the premise was astoundingly real for such an unbelievable concept as memory erasure. Full marks to Michel Gondry (director) & Charlie Kaufman (co screenwriter) and all involved in this modern classic.
P.S. Michel Gondry also directed probably the best music video ever - "let forever be" by the Chemical Brothers
