Movie Reviews of The Number 23 (Unrated Infinifilm Edition)

Movie Review: Dull, plodding, clumbsy psycho-drama
Summary: 2 Stars

We got this the week it came out, my wife said it was so bad she didn't want to watch it again, which is unusual for her. I didn't give in until today. I could have waited another few years and it wouldn't have helped.
The only good thing about this film was the song that played during the closing credits.

Trust me... there are better ways to spend your time

Summary of The Number 23 (Unrated Infinifilm Edition)

Walter sparrow becomes obsessed with a novel he believes was written about him. As his obsession increases more & more similarities seem to arise. Studio: New Line Home Video Release Date: 08/19/2008 Starring: Jim Carrey Virginia Madsen Run time: 100 minutes Rating: Ur
Jim Carrey as a schizophrenic murderer isn't convincing, in this melodramatic film about a man obsessed by the Number 23. Joel Schumacher (Batman Forever, St. Elmo's Fire) has unintentionally managed to make a comedy of horrors that really is quite humorous in parts. Walter Sparrow (Carrey) becomes engrossed in a homespun novel about Detective Fingerling, whose life degrades into mayhem because of his obsession with 23's esoteric numerical puzzles. Sparrow's preoccupation with the book follows his botched attempt to catch a nasty dog that bites him, leading one to believe that Sparrow's contraction of rabies might be the cause for his mental degradation. As the story progresses, Sparrow retreats further into Fingerling's world, rife with suicidal sexpots and hardboiled detective sleuthing. His wife, Agatha (Virginia Madsen), also plays Fingerling's girlfriend, sex-crazed Fabrizia, who taunts Fingerling until he stabs her. Back in reality, Walter aims to solve the unresolved crimes in the book, taking it as a murderer's diary rather than as an imagined work. The story is half-baked, though Carrey's portrayal of a mentally disturbed person is what makes The Number 23 comedic. Long, contemplative stares, and over-dramatized acting renders Sparrow a clich?d character, rather than one odd enough to engage viewers. For a better version of almost the exact plot but with a terrorist's twist, see Thr3e instead. --Trinie Dalton
