Not only (Kaufman's) most accessible and romantic screenplay, it's his most complete. The third act works like a charm and pulls all his themes, characters and conflicts together beautifully.

A wildly imaginative, hugely entertaining tour de force that asks big questions about life and love and fate while never ceasing to fully engage the viewer.

Feels like something entirely brand-new; such are the gifts of Kaufman and Gondry, inventors and magicians.

A delightful little wormhole that takes us on a journey to another dimension of consciousness.
