It's my "break up" movie. Good for seeing that what you had ended for a reason. At least after a recent break up...

I wouldn't recommend it. I can't even watch it again a year after my heart was broken. Started and had to stop.

It's a good movie but don't get delusions or romanticize something you won't get back. As corny as it sounds take time for you.

*SPOILERS* Which is interesting, because the original intended ending was for them to keep breaking up and forgetting and repeat

I saw it after splitting from my ex wife. It's a very powerful film, but it helped sorting out what to do with my memories of the marriage.

I'd wait until you've recovered a bit. It's a depressing flick, but one of Carrey's best. (I'm not a fan of his slapstick comedies) - I'd /

argue that Eternal Sunshine is not a romcom at all, but a psychological drama. It's good, but I wouldn't watch it while you're vulnerable.

The movie has a happier ending regarding that than your life apparently, so I'm not sure.
