  I had a very lukewarm reaction to the film. The parts where James Stewart spyed on the other neighbors, specifically Ms. Lonelyheart, and the whole 'peeping' nature of the cinematography were very interesting, the film as a whole failed to engage me. Though that may have been because I was expecting a big mind-blowing twist at the end a la Vertigo or Psycho.

  Also James Stewart's character was a big jerk.

This is most clearly demonstrated by the chronology. The timeline of Eternal Sunshine…
