Michel Gondry is a genius.

Rating: 10/10 (29 July 2004)

... Michel Gondry is a genius, and to be fair, so is Charlie Kaufman, but the actual sight of losing someone resonated with me... The visuals were amazing without being overpowering... I've followed Gondry's work for a while, and no one could have been more thrilled to hear of his involvement with this film. The movie was so brilliant just because it could have been horrible with anyone less capable at the helm. Everyone involved with this movie seemed to be operating at career best. ... This movie came out just after I lost a family member special to me, and for how horrible losing them was, I'd do it all over again, would never trade our time together even knowing that our ending wouldn't be of best friends riding off into the sunset. I still want to run off into the beach, even if it is on a cloudy day.
