Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind - 9/10
Jim Carrey is more than good in this one, and the chemistry between him and Kate Winslet is really something. Hilarious scene where the 2 are taking a bath in his mom's kitchen sink. Good supporting role for Kirsten Dunst, but Carrey & Winslet are amazing in this. Didn't know Carrey would (or could) be semi-serious onscreen with a woman. He brings his trademark sense of humor, but more mature, less obnoxious. Killer soundtrack, too.
edit: Even better the second time. Its really a powerful, emotional, lovely movie. Lots of charming details that are missed when 1) not picking up all the dialogue, 2) you get past the unlikely sci-fi premise, 3) in a cynical mood. Great offbeat romance.
