He is very understated here, but it works as he still manages to be likable all the same. Jim Carrey has done some good performances in some good films, The Mask, Liar Liar, The Cable Guy and Bruce Almighty showcase his comedy talents wonderfully, but this and The Truman Show show he is perfectly good at drama too. As good as the supporting performances are especially from the always splendid Tom Wilkinson, I have to give the real kudos to the leads. I have very little to complain about Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind's performances either. The pacing very rarely feels boring if at all, and the direction is adept. Then there is the script which is both poignant and funny, not to mention very deep. It is strange and bizarre yes, but neither of those are bad, quite the contrary. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind has one beautifully constructed story I can tell you, with an almost poignant message about it. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind doesn't have the best soundtrack/score I have ever heard in my life, but the score makes the film all the more moving, while the soundtrack is well selected and appropriate. Another impressive asset was the soundtrack/score. The whole film looks beautiful, not only with the cinematography which is indeed spellbinding but also in the scenery which was nothing short of amazing. I especially loved how Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind was shot. In fact, if you don't mind me saying so, it is one of my favourite films of the 2000s. What a surprise when I saw it! I think this film is wonderful in every aspect, truly beautiful and packs a full emotional punch. When I first saw Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, I wasn't expecting to love it, let alone like it.
