We’re on a bit on a Kaufman binge now and much like Eternal Sunshine, this sucks you in with an interesting premise then keeps you watching with a clever and witty script.

Worth your time if only because of the bizarre love triangle of John Cusack, Cameron Diaz and Catherine Keener via way of John Malkovich.

It’s hard to believe that Spike Jonze is a first-time feature director here, and Charlie Kaufman is a first-time screenwriter. Surely two of the greatest débuts in cinema history.

I was a movie that I push watch another day. At the end i watch now. Super script. The film I saw Cameron Diaz acting for the first time in my life. Is there anyone watching a more beautiful puppet show? [spoiler] The hopelessness dance in the opening scene was very impressive. And same scene in the middle of the movie with real Malkovich! [/spoiler]

Stunning and Unique:

- Fantastic Cast: Cusack, Diaz, Malkovich, Keener
- The flow is perfect with new ideas and scenarios revealing themselves every now and then keeping the audience glued to their seats
- The concept of the movie is quite unique and unmatched
- Not going to spoil this but there are a couple of hilarious scenes and events that will unfold as your mind keeps questioning the endless possibilities

Few movies are able to achieve this quirky, subtle tone that this film does. Kaufman is quickly becoming one of my favorite writers/directors as I watch more of his movies.

A unique, bizzare and wierdly fascinating film, with a well-crafted, compelling and amusing plot, that keeps you engaged via to it's erratic nature.

This film is absolutely unique! I've had heard a lot about this film but I actually didn't knew what to expect from it and I really liked the whole crazy, fun and perfectly weird concept of it.
John Malkovich was great playing himself as all of the rest of the cast, John Cusack, Catherine Keener and Cameron Diaz that I usually don't like very much, but she was quite good in this.
I loved Spike Jonze's Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and Where The Wild Things Are. Yesterday I saw the trailer of his new film "Her" and I fell in love of it right away! I can't wait to see it and I hope I don't get disappointed because he didn't disappointed me yet! Still need to see Adaptation too, it will be my next.
Being inside of John Malkovich head must be great!
