Journalism / Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind Review
Believe it or not I had this movie stuck in a shelf for months and months, I can’t tell you why I simply couldn’t decide myself to watch it, I don’t know, if it was Jim Carrey, or the title, whatever, I didn’t fell like watching it.
One fine night when I ran out of movies to watch, I choose to give it a try. What a good decision that was, it’s one of the best romantic movies I’ve ever seen, so original, amazing and surprising script, oh well I could be all day enlisting all the great words I come across with when I talk about it.
When I finished watching it I felt like calling all my loved ones and talk about it and even thought I watch a lot (I really mean a lot) of movies this feeling doesn’t come very often.
It’s the story of Joel (Jim Carrey) and Clementine (Kate Winslet), a story about how they met, how their love grew and finally how they started falling apart to the point that Clementine decides to under go a new medical procedure that erasures all the memories related to someone we once loved. When Joel finds out what she did, he decides to do exactly the same.
The movie is about his fight, during the mentioned medical procedure, to not forget her, to keep all the memories, cause once he starts reviving all their moments together, he finds all the reasons he fell in love with her.
It’s a very beautiful story, that without being cheesy on the contrary, intelligent not to mention the soundtrack that was absolutely fantastic.nt, makes us rethink our relationships and appreciate much more what we are living.
Charlie Kauffman (Being John Malkovich) certainly not surprised me, just proved he is one of the best writers around.
When it comes to the performances: Kate Winslet brilliant as always and Jim Carrey just me made look at him with a lot more respect, it’s certainly the best performance of his career and I surely wont hesitate to watch his next movie.

I think you need to be careful with your grammar and punctuation. You had a few run on sentences in there that would have done better if they had been separated with full stops. Your first paragraph, for example, should have been split into at least three separate sentences.
Also, if this review were to be published it might have been better to keep your description of the plot of the film a little more vague. You don’t want to spoil it for those who have yet to see it. Maybe you could have focussed more on the film’s style than its narrative.
I’m glad you liked the film. It’s one of my favourites also.

You’re writing is conversational and that’s fine, but you need to clean up your grammar and spelling a bit if you want to ever publish. As for the content, I totally agree. It was a great flick. With a some polishing, this could be a nice movie review.
Best,

Thanks for the review. I don’t watch movies often, but I’m going to rent that one now. I knew it was supposed to be amazing. I just never get around to watching movies much. Thanks for not giving too much away with this review. As far as your writing, just check it again. There are several typos and gramatical errors Like “fell like watching it” (feel) and “stuck in a shelf” (on) etcetera. Thanks for convincing me to do something different and rent a movie. Guess it’s ‘cause I don’t have a boyfriend right now that I haven’t been doing that!
