WHAT? "Boring, pointless movie, that incited nothing but confusion and malice towards the main character for being so paranoid and lethargic."?????? ITS NONE OF THOSE, WHAT IT IS IS A TRICK ON THE AUDIENCE, AND DONT BE INSULTING A MOVIE PUBLICALLY THAT YOU SLEPT THROUGH. SEE THE ENTIRE MOVIE FIRST.

" A trick on the audience..". Trick them into thinking that it's a good movie? There's no tricks here. Everyone knows that Nick Cage is playing both Kauffman brothers.

I'm not the only one that didn't like this movie, trust me. They probably have worse things to say that I.

im not talking about the effects. im talking that the end of the movie breaks all the conventional rules of screenwriting. the end is against the forulas in books. it ends with how the teacher says never to end a screenplay, with whats called a deus ex machina. its when the characters die and the plot results from somthing totally random, having nothing to do with the rest of the movie. and dont complain if you havent seen the whole film. st

Hey, how about you call me "stupid" one more time? I don't think you've conveyed your true feelings for me. 😉

I love beatniks who crap out these "thinking persons" movies, then have their legions that come to the rescue when people exploit it's flaws.

Basically, what you told me is that the end doesn't justify the means, and that he broke protocol and made a totally unrelated end to the movie to appease those people that "think outside of the box".

I loathe "thinking" movies. Movies are for entertainment, and I shouldn't have to drop acid to "get them".

Movies are suppose to be art 😑
Well maybe not american movies.

so what your aying is all movies should just be some cheap light entertainment. what your implying is that any movie that you have to think about, should be persecuted for bieng tough. so screw american beauty, pulp fiction, mystic river, american splendor, run lola run, blow out, the searchers, raging bull, millers crossing, fight club, rio bravo, gods and monsters and heavenly creatureds?

and all movies should be monsters and kung fu? i couldent dissagre with you more.

Wasting your breath. What I am saying is that movies that try to be "original" by doing whole "deus ex machina" deal are anything but that, and their attempt at being clever is lost in the conflict of the movies story.

this movie looks cool

eternal sunshine!

Jim Carey looks pretty funny in that in the little trailer I saw on TV

Cabellera - are you there???

yes. i am online now. why? because of the quick responses?

OK, there you are---
That's kind of a strange title for a movie isn't it???

i think the movie is about a guy who has his bad memories erased. but, yeah it is different....
