Kate Winslet...PERFECTION

Rating: 10/10 (15 November 2004)

I love Kate Winslet EVEN MORE after this film. The first hour is a mind-boggling, yet exhilarating experience. Winslet's diversity is on show in every scene she is in and she deserves every award going.
Kaufman and Carrey have progressed their talents with this - for Kaufman it feels like a necessary extension to Adaptation and Carrey fulfils the potential he hinted at in The Truman Show.
My favourite scene takes place in the kitchen of Carrey's childhood. Winslet and Carrey deliver furiously energetic performances. Both using their bodies perfectly. The interplay is out of this world.
On a smaller scale the effects are surprising and in the scenes when Carrey goes back to his childhood they're spectacular.
