Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind

More mind-bending fun from the word processor of writer Charlie Kaufman. This one is not as heavy on the goofy humor as, say, Being John Malkovich; Eternal Sunshine is moodier, more contemplative, more interested in delving into the feelings of the leads (expertly played by Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet). You laugh, but you get to experience other emotions as well. If you enjoyed Kaufman's other trips inside various heads, you'll like this one too.

Small Soldiers

I saw this one a while back, and I don't remember much about it. I recall thinking it was OK, that the effects were kind of neat, the story wasn't bad…but it's all pretty vague. Can't really recommend, but can't really pan it either. You're on your own here.

Waiting For Guffman

Given the talents involved--Spinal Tap veteran Christopher Guest is the auteur here--this should have been better. Still, it has its moments.
