Plot Story : The second feature from director Michel Gondry (Human Nature) finds the filmmaker reteaming with screenwriter Charlie Kaufman for this off-the-wall romantic comedy. Jim Carrey stars as Joel Barish, a man who is informed that his ex-girlfriend Clementine (Kate Winslet) has had her memories of their relationship erased from her brain via an experimental procedure performed by Dr. Mierzwiak (Tom Wilkinson). Not to be outdone, Joel decides to have the same procedure done to himself. As Mierzwiak's bumbling underlings Stan (Mark Ruffalo) and Patrick (Elijah Wood) perform the operation on Joel -- over the course of an evening, in his apartment -- Joel struggles in his own mind to save the memories of Clementine from being deleted. Kirsten Dunst, David Cross, and Jane Adams also star. ~ Matthew Tobey, Rovi

Review For Movie Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind
Works marvel after marvel in expressing the bewildering beauty and existential horror of being trapped inside one's own addled mind, and in allegorising the self-preserving amnesia of a broken but hopeful heart.Jessica Winter-Time Out
It's the kind of film that could mean more to people after they've left the theater and thought about it awhile.
Peter Rainer-New York Magazine
There is little charm in the coupling and almost no erotic intimacy, just a series of nerve-racking conversational collisions.
Andrew Sarris-New York Observer
The disappointment I felt at the end of Eternal Sunshine was almost crushing, simply because there were sections of it that were as daring in their emotional directness as anything I've seen in years.
Stephanie Zacharek-Salon.com
[Kaufman] clearly surpasses himself.
Jonathan Rosenbaum-Chicago Reader
Neither wholly cynical nor wholly romantic, Kaufman's story is a balance of smarts and sentiment.
Michael O'Sullivan-Washington Post
Imaginative, loopy romance is for adults only.
Nell Minow-Common Sense Media
Michel Gondry tries to channel Fellini and ends up irrigating faulty plumbing.
Cole Smithey-ColeSmithey.com
This is a wonderful, often beautiful, and melancholy character study of romance, humanity, and the mind with wonderful acting, incredible surrealism and a funny and heart-wrenching story.
Felix Vasquez Jr.-Cinema Crazed
The film entertains for the most part and gives us a set of marvellous performances from this outstanding cast, even if it doesn't quite reach the near-genius of Kaufman's other writings.
Urban Cinefile Critics-Urban Cinefile
Most imaginative and impressively executed...
Mark Halverson-Sacramento News & Review
Kaufman and Gondry bring out all the weirdness of the premise, sometimes eliciting disbelieving laughter, sometimes taking us to odd, chilly places.
Rob Gonsalves-eFilmCritic.com
Walking into a theater with Charlie Kaufman on the screen is like volunteering for that wacky boat trip Willy Wonka took through the chocolate factory tunnel...
Gina Carbone-Seacoast Newspapers (NH/Maine)
Eternal Sunshine is fresh, heartfelt and ultimately heartbreaking in its honest portrayal of a modern relationship.
Mariko McDonald-Film Threat
The reality is that Hollywood is such an idea poor place Kaufman tends to get more credit than he deserves for work which only occasionally rises above the level of mind games and showy sleight of hand.
Rick Kisonak-Film Threat
It is an enchanting clutter of love and reason that will only appeal to the audience willing to take the time to see the movie and then think about it later.
Jason Zingale-Bullz-Eye.com
A unique deconstruction of man's innate desire to avert heartache.
Nick Schager-Lessons of Darkness
The kind of movie that only gets better the more you think about it and I think it cries out for repeat viewings.
Ethan Alter-NYC Film Critic
You won't soon forget this walk down memory lane. Actually, make that a RUN down memory lane.
Kevin A. Ranson-MovieCrypt.com
Odd but compelling; one of the year's 10 best
Fr. Chris Carpenter-Catholic Sun
like in the best sci-fi, it's primarily a metaphor for a deeper dilemma: the question of whether or not we'd really be better off eliminating heartbreak from our lives.
Luke Y. Thompson-New Times
Most Hollywood films tell us we have everything we need within ourselves. [This movie] indicates that we need each other, even ... when togetherness disrupts happiness.
Jeffrey Overstreet-Christianity Today
...aligned with the Nietzschean idea that we are doomed to be ourselves, that the "eternal recurrence of the same" has a gravitational pull on our hearts.
Philip Martin-Arkansas Democrat-Gazette
An unusual one but a great one, it will have you asking questions about the true nature of love for some time afterwards.
Glen Bucher-ComingSoon.net
Without a connection to the central relationship, all of Kaufman's musings and Gondry's visual frills would be for naught, but... it all fits into place.
