The title isn't mine. It's from one of my favourite movies, featuring Jim Carey and Kate Winslet. It's not a comedy though. It's a kind of romance story, but it's also an exploration of the human mind.
The story goes on like this. It's actually told in a somewhat non-chronological order, but I'll try to explain it anyway. Winslet's character feels that her relationship with Carey is no longer workable, and therefore decides to erase him from her memory permanently, and start over with a new life. Carey, finding out Winslet's actions, decides to do the same.
Of course, during the process, while being trapped in his own subconscious, finds that he doesn't wanna lose the wonderful memories he had with her, even though the relationship is over. He then tries to wake himself up, so that he could still retain those memories.
It's a great film. I think they show it on Astro from time to time.
I've also just seen '28 Weeks Later' on DVD. This film is amazing. Far from just being a gore-fest, it is a thriller that has heart. The eerie music is essential to the film, giving a sense of hopelessness and desperation. Every little sense of hope is crushed soon after it is given. This film has a genuinely good plot, but the characters aren't allowed to develop.
Rush Hour 3 was a good laugh-out-loud film. But it had so many cliches in it. Recommended though.
