  • I'll disagree. Eternal Sunshine is as deep and true as anything else Charlie has done. This recent trend to push Eternal Sunshine fans off the Kaufman boat is sort of ridiculous. I thought Synecdoche felt more like Eternal Sunshine than Kaufman's earlier stuff anyway. If you loved Eternal Sunshine there's a pretty good chance you'll like this.

  • It's both a mind fuck and a revelation. It's both amazing and boring. It's both audacious and ridiculous. Most people won't like it. If you do, you aren't necessarily brilliant or hip. But I will say it's far better than most recent David Lynch films.

  • If a movie is to hard for the viewer to understand, (this could mean that) the filmmaker has failed in making his point. Of course, a movie can be so complicated that you have to watch it a couple of times, but that doesn't make the film neccesarily better. It is ridiculous to say that you nead to understand a film completely before delivering critique; that would mean that you could only watch a couple of films per year to do so.

  • hell yeah

  • dear whalesex, excuse me please, on my improper grammar usage. however,i was speaking more so about the film and how rod didn't give the film the review it deserved. i mean sure it is his opinion , but he didn't really seem as though he understood the film; which in conclusion, if you don't exactly understand a piece of art than you can't really critique it can you? lastly , i do understand grammar "Whalesex", it's just not my number one goal when writting a comment on a youtube video...sorry

  • Dear Claytonart17, "you're" a complete idiot. If you don't understand grammar, do not post a comment about other people being idiots.

  • you pronounced it wrong

    i enjoyed it

  • this movie does NOT have "flaws." Even if you dislike it, the film does accomplish what it sets out to do.

  • dear rod, your a complete idiot.if you don't understand art don't speak about it..please... thanks again  -Taylor
