Velvet Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 ...is a damn fine piece of film-making.I recommend it highly, especially to Jim Carrey haters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
can-o-phish Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 Couldn't agree more and this was not your big budget hollywood film but has more of an "indie-edge" feel to it; you can see and feel the passion in the actors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phorbesie Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 i *heart* jim carrey.haven't seen that one yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoolshed Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 I couldn't agree more. Normally I hate Hollywood dramas because the points they're trying to drive home seem redundant and shallow, especially after some of the things many of us on this board have injested. BUT, I hadn't enjoyed a movie of that nature as much since Magnolia. Wow. A movie that makes you feel AND think.What's the directors name again?

Kaidy Mae Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 Michel Gondry directed it. One of my favourites. Jon Brion's soundtrack is awesome too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Photogeek Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 I loved that movie...anything Charlie Kaufman touches is gold...he also wrote Being John Malkovich and Adaptation...he's working on another film with Spike Jonze as well (who directed both of those).

c-towns Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 I found this film very boring, it seems like one of those films where its cool to like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaidy Mae Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 I thought it was an awesome way to present a sometimes tired old story line (ahhh, the love story) in a completely original and unconventional way. Alas, I know of a lot of folks who just didn't get the big deal. Damn, I think I may watch this as part of my Monday Night Recovery Routine.

peipunk Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 LOL, thats pretty funny ctowns...I thought Jim Carrey was GREAT, but I was somewhat underwhelmed as a whole...each to their own though, I know lots of people who loved it.

Basher Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 I consider myself a film buff, and this movie is easily in the top 10 of my favourite films of all time. Freaking brilliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PalacePrincess Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 haha, ctowns you're funny. i'm in the underwhelmed/eh camp. i didn't think it was a terrible movie. i just didn't think it was all THAT great. i didn't even think it was all that original, it was kind of like a stripped down, not-as-flashy vanilla sky with better(?) actors. i'll watch kate winslet in anything though.

Steve from Cleveland Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 i'll watch kate winslet in anything though.PP, [color:purple]Did you know that she once was in this AWESOME movie about this luxury liner that hit an iceberg and sank? I think the movie was the same name as the ship, but it's so obscure that I can't quite remember what it is right now... Anyhow, you might want to see if you can track down a copy of that flick... I think it's pretty hard to locate, though! Good Luck!SfC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

h Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 there was more gunfire in total recall. but i have this movie on cd and it was on the movie network so i have watched it all twice and parts of it several times while surfing. It really is a good movie. I particularly like the scene when he knocks on the window and asks jim carrey if he can help him then how that all flips back again at the end. I also like the scene when kirstin dunst is jumping around on the bed in her underwear with her boyfriend while jim carrey is still on it undergoing the procedure. Dont know why but i do like that scene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dJEd Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 loved it. the sndtrk is great too. Jon Brion is a total wizard. the track "Row" is one minute of pure emotion, i can listen to it over and over again for a bazillion minutes. the Beck tune is also grand.this flick decreased my hatred for Jim "crazy arms" Carrey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
