Summary: SOMEBODY STOP ME
Review: No way can anyone dislike this film. It's just so much fun. An absolute must for any Jim Carrey fan(me). It's full of his silly humor and improvisation. I love the balloon making he does. "Sorry son the dog was rabid...had to be put down."

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Great combination of live-action with computer animation.
Review: Being a "toons" fan myself I fell in love with this film. Carrey's Stanley Ipkiss, a "toons" fan too, gets to live out his "toon" fantasies after finding a magic mask.

I think Carrey did an excellent job in this film and this was one of the better films he has done where he plays a strange but likeable character. He is a very talented actor who I am glad got the opportunity to show his versatility in this film.

This was Cameron Diaz's first film and boy does she do it up right!

The DVD has some great goodies and makes a great comedy addition to anyone's collection.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It was a funny comedy and I laughed the whole way through it
Review: Jim Carrey has some real talent, I think he can make people laugh just by looking at them or making a funny face. The funniest movie I saw was Ace ventura when nature calls, because that was the second movie I ever saw of his. The mask was also HALARIOUS!!! If you havn't seen it yet, I suggest you go and see it!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hilariously entertaining and romantic with great DVD extras
Review: No one else but Jim Carrey could have played the title character in The Mask. This movie takes full advantage of his comedic talents. The special effects are great. The story is touching. Cameron Diaz is gorgeous. Milo the dog is a scene stealer. Totally entertaining! The DVD extras include a couple of deleted scenes and a director's commentary that is one of the best accounts of what goes on behind the scenes I've ever heard. This one's a keeper!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Fun special effects chalked full of energy!!!
Review: As a somewhat cautious viewer of in-your-face comedy I was a bit surprised by the level of enjoyment found in "The Mask". Jim Carrey's explosive energy works well as a zoot-suited Tex Avery cartoon character -- he stops at nothing when donning the ancient green mask. Unfortunately though, these times happen to be amoung the only few highlights of the film. There is not much in the way of plot or character development. The special effects that are used when the Mask is on screen are phenomanol, and are alone worth watching the film for. But if you're looking for more, check out the great soundtrack that accompanies the visual effects. Carrey's rendition of "Cuban Pete" is hilarious and with the revival of swing music, be sure not to miss the performance by Royal Crown Revue. It's smooookin!! Fans of Cameron Diaz will find her movie debut as Tina Carlyle, a sultry nightclub singer, the first in a long line of amazing performances. Another supporting character worth mentioning is Milo the dog, Carrey's nemesis. Whenever on camera, he steals the scene. (For a spectacular special effect check out Milo near the end). If your're looking for a fun, energy packed film without too much complication, you'll be sure to enjoy "The Mask". If your're not a big fan of Carrey's humor you may want to skip this one, but be assured, it's much easier to swallow than "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective". END

Summary: Jim Carrey's best film to date!
Review: I still get lots of laughs watching "The Mask" after a full decade since it's release to theatres and even to this very day, "The Mask" stands as Carrey's greatest movie to date even amidst the funny films he's done since then.

The character John Ipkiss is a worker in NYC whose job goes down the toilet until he discovers an ancient artifact that resembles a mask of some sort and when he puts it on, it causes him to transform into a wildly erratic genius who goes totally beserk and Ipkiss decides to use the mask to fight crime in NYC but his mask is saught by a greedy criminal mastermind bent on taking over New York and kidnaps Ipkiss's love interest and threatens to kill her if time runs out and now Ipkiss with the power of hte mask must stop the madman before it's too late.

The ride throughout this movie is just hilarious and the comedic wit of Jim Carrey carries this film the whole way through. Go and get this movie as soon as possible. It's a classic for all ages to come.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: FUN HAS NEVER BEEN SO GREEN
Review: Did you know that this excellent comedy was planed to be a horror?! Based on popular comic, THE MASK would be a storu about green killer who tells sarcastic remarks, while he's tearing a part his victims with an axe. But, when director Chuck Russell got Jim Carrey for this role he decided to do a comedy. And lucky for him and us he did a great job. I remember when I saw THE MASK for the first time. Fantastic story, interesting characters, and of course, Jim Carrey in role which made him famous. Story is about unsuccessful, shy banker who comes in possesion of an ancient wooden mask which turnes him into a wild, green, party creature who now has everything: powers, money and love. It influented on me so much that I find the same dog like Milo (that is one damn smart dog!). Carry gave the best of himself: he danced, sang and made jokes all the time. Cameron Diaz left me breathless, and two caps..., well, see it for yourself. This film guaranties fun whole 90 minutes it lasts and trust me, you will love it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Funniest Movie Ever!
Review: JIm Carrey stars as Stanley Ipkiss, a guy who works at the bank who suddenly finds a mask that came out of a treasure chest in the ocean that got opened by a ball of steel.
My Favorite part is when he gets the whole crowd of police men and women dancing
It's funny but also remember SON OF THE MASK in theaters now will never be as funny without JIM CARREY
I thought it was actually pretty 100% STUPID!

Summary: A movie review
Review: I think Jim Carrey is a total moron. He has forty, yet he acts like a nine year-old. But I think this movie is the best from Jim Carrey. Way better than "LIAR LIAR", "ACE VENTURA: PET DETECTIVE", "DUMB & DUMBER" or "ME, MYSELF AND IRENE". This movie has humor, but not as stupid as Carrey's other flicks like "DUMB AND DUMBER" or "ME, MYSELF AND IRENE". If you like Carrey's movies then I think you'll love this one as much as I do.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Laugh out loud funny
Review: This is Jim Carrey's funniest slapstick film, and the visual effects are great. You can't help but like and root for the underdog good guy who, with a little help from a magical mask, transforms into a playful and mischievous Mr. Hyde. As funny as the film is, it also makes you wonder what would be unleashed from your own personality if you were to wear the mask.
