This film was surprisingly good, and if you view it for what it is, it was quite enjoyable. As far as dark comedies go, it was very true from beginning to end. And above the stellar performance of Jim Carrey, it also makes a funny social commentary about society being raised by the TV and observing just how much our society is wrapped up into it.
I enjoyed the references to concurrent events (Menendez), and the overall character that was played by Jim Carrey was fascinating and comical, and it was a genuinely good basis for a black comedy. The originality of the script and the way that it was handled to form this film was quite ingenious. It puts other films like the Mask to shame... Overall, if you are looking for a decent laugh, this is a good comedy to turn to. |
