Probably old news, but gotta say I love this movie. Well
crafted.. very interesting if you can keep up with the scene
switches. Its almost like IDM for movies (constantly
changing). Who else enjoyed this flick?

I thought it was piss poor crowdpleasing existentialism. It
had no story, no powerfull imagery. A contribed piece of
pretension that didn't deserve theatrical release. Normally
I like the strange stuff, but this reaked of trying too
hard.

I liked it. Considered it was a movie starring Jim Carrey.
Other Carrey movies i liked: Man on teh moon and Truman Show

from the US. Going to see Coffee and Cigarettes later.

good movie.

the only part i didn't like was the doctor & dunst
relationship. that felt forced. everything else was
brilliant.

well, they had to do that so carrey and winslet get to hear
those tapes...they could do this another way as well, but i
don't think it was relevant for the film :)

dunst could've found out about frodo & winslet, and been put
off about the whole shammy nature of the practice. maybe
the doctor tells her not to worry about it after she finds
out or something... then she gives all the tapes back to
save other people from being taken advantage of.

i think that works better. but, that's just me.

yeah, the scene where they're sitting on the steps and
they're both (he is internally) realizing that his memory
erasing is almost done... that's really powerful. i dig it.

i really loved this movie, except for jim carrey. i just
didn't think he did a good job... acting... it kind of
ruined it for me, because the whole time i felt like i was
watching jim carrey trying to act and not the seeing the
character. whereas kate winslet's character was believable
and pretty much all the other cast members gave convincing
performances, jim carrey's performance was not. but that
was my own take on it, everyone tells me i'm wrong. :(

i think the role was purrfekt for him...he's a diverse
person,no doubt,but it's a bit hard to get used to serious
roles cos he only played in comedies the most.

i really found myself in this movie...like wathing myself in
his shoes.

oh yeah...the whole movie is kinda on a minimum untill they
realise what happens and then you get this emotional
feedback right in the face.
that was what got me going soft...took me totally offguard.

i watched a screen copy of it - and it was good, like
amateur video. the cam was not placed 100% horizontally,
plus blur, and enhancement of light/shadow... nice grainy
feel.

it's kinda the opposite for me. i didn't really get into it
at first because the characters were acting so oddly that i
thought it was just poorly thought out.

but, then as the movie progressed and i began to catch on to
what was going on everything made perfect sense.

yep... i really liked it.

at first i thought the main characters just didn't have a
believable chemistry although their acting was fantastic.

I saw this film with an ex-gf of mine and we got back
together soon after. Watching the film with her was
extremely bizarre given the storyline ....!!!

The soundtrack was okay.

Aside from Beck's cover I wasn't too keen on the tracks that
weren't written specifically for the film.

I particularly liked the Main title music, Peer Pressure,
and Phone Call which is one of the single most lovely things
I have heard in my life.

good date movie, it's either that or Bridget Jones'
Sequel...

your choice...

Besides that I believe that kaufman should stop whining
about being a loser now that he has become a super-star with
adaptation...

Kristen's tits don't look nice...thy are so...mhhh...flabby?
