Rating: Summary: forget the actors, try to understand Review: The Truman Show does not need Hollywood icons. Any critique or praise of the people ACTING the roles misses the intended effect of movies. To the point, movies convey ideas and emotions. After this, they seek an internal reaction in the viewer. Without a person alongside Truman to pound the unseen walls of reality and grasp the scope and profundity of false kinship, this movie crumbles. Perhaps this is the weak point of the movie. However, forgetting the hype and glamour of this movie helps a thoughtful and human viewer to understand. Besides, if this movie seems mundane, it is quite possible that YOUR life is mundane and you fail to cast the equivalent doubt upon yourself. Remember to associate with Truman, no matter how ridiculous it seems, and this movie will be a rewarding, though certainly not life-altering, experience.
Rating: Summary: The 2nd Best Movie Ever!!!!!!!!!!!! Review: This movie changed my life! It was the 2nd best movie I have ever seen in my life (and I've seen A LOT of movies). I would recommend this movie to anyone. Although the main reason this movie wasn't that huge is the factor that it is actually deep, and people go into a Jim Carrey movie usually expected not to have to think anything. Great performenences by Jim Carrey, Laura Linney, Ed Harris, Noah Emmerich & Natascha McElhone. So go out and see this movie right away.
Rating: Summary: AWESOME Review: Seen this movie around 20 times, it's amazing. Jim Carry at his best
Rating: Summary: HORRIBLE!!!! Review: How can you people actually like this movie? It was one of the worst movies I have ever seen. I saw it in the theatres and it was a waste of money!! Jim Carey was horrible in that role.....what were the golden globe people thinking? Don't even bother to rent it....it was a waste.......
Rating: Summary: This is Jim Carry's best movie yet Review: I thing Jim brings a little bit of both worlds into this movie. He is still very funny but there is also a serious twist it. This movie shows that Jim is not going to stay in on one level thoughout his movie career but instead improve and become more versetile. If you see only one of his movie, see this one.I also liked Liar Liar, very funny movie.
Rating: Summary: Great movie Review: I just can say: "This is excellent movie. The bigest publicity in my country. And another thing, people from here think that Jimm Carey is the best actor in Hollywood.
Rating: Summary: What are you looking at me for? Review: After "Cable Guy" I never really thought I would see another such scarey comedy. Along come "The Truman Show" with the vastly underrated (why was he not nominated for and Oscar?) Jim Carrey again giving the kind of performance that is not only rare but barely exists in movies outside of Europe and certainly never seen in american film. Carrey's cartoon persona brilliantly matches Peter Weir's vision of a life permanently on line. The"Oh my God" factors leap at you as an unsuspecting audience and treat you as an intelligent beast instead of feeding the usual predicatable pap we have grown accustomed to. See this movie and then watch it again immediately afterwards.
Rating: Summary: I Loved IT! Review: This is one of the best movies I've seen! Jim Carrey does an excellent job, probably one of his best. See this movie!
Rating: Summary: Brilliant Review: Jim Carrey's performance in this movie was amazing. It certainly showed he can act in a serious role. He should have been nominated for Best Actor over Ed Norton, taking nothing away from him. Also fine direction from Peter Weir and this movie was so underrated. I feel it was one of three best movies of 1998.
Rating: Summary: A Great Movie Review: This was a truely great movie. I just saw it last night and it was very original and thought provoking because we don't know if there is someone out there watching us all the time. The great plot mixed with Jim Carey's humor and acting made this one of the best movies ever made.
