Movie Reviews of The Truman Show (Special Collector's Edition)
Movie Review: Great Movie
Summary: 5 Stars
I just saw this movie last night with some friends. MAN was I blown away, this is now one of my FAVORITE Jim Carrey movies. This was well worth the $7.95 I payed for it at a local Wal-Mart. So, if you've not seen this movie, do yourself a favor and rent or buy it.Movie Review: Great forcast of the future
Summary: 5 Stars
Once upon of time this movie was a gross exaggeration of the world's fascination with reality shows. Sort of a 'how far are we willing to go', kind of thing. Fast forward, reality shows are still a staple on the networks, but we've learned a new term 'scripted reality' which, I guess was what the Truman Show was. Everyone in on the act except the lead. Truman also manage to hit you with a lot of heart and I honestly believe Carey gave an Oscar worthy performance in this role. Truman's growth and his adventous spirit could not be conquered. It's an old tale of the creation turning on its creator and one that is still fascinating to watch. Highly recommendedMovie Review: A day in the life!
Summary: 5 Stars
This astonishing and intelligent film - one of the twelve most remarkable films of the decade - mirrors with implacable intensity the well known statement of Andy Warhol (All human beings have fifteen minutes of glory in their lives), a powerful script worthy to be included among the most devastating ever written in the last fifteen years - please don't forget Requiem for a dream - besides Jim Carey made the role of his artistic career with resplendent realism.
A sidereal masterpiece!
Movie Review: Are you watching Truman tonight?
Summary: 3 Stars
I watched this film with great anticipation. I have long awaited a chance to see Jim Carrey in a serious role. I have always known he had the potential. It was worth the wait. His performance in "The Truman Show" was spectacular. Hopefully this is only the beginning of movies showcasing his other side. I was however very disappointed with the film and the way it was written. This film had incredible potential. The theme is so refreshing and original. My high hopes were dashed when I watched it. It could have been one of the greatest films of all time had it been given a little more creativity and effect. With that in mind, I do recommend watching it. Don't expect it to be everything it is billed to be, It is not. Way over rated, giving the viewer extremely high expectations. It simply doesn't deliver what it claims. It is however a good film and worth watching. Great acting, casting, visuals and a good plot. Three stars and one thumb up. (the other thumb down).Movie Review: Genius, Creepy and Ahead of it's time
Summary: 4 Stars
In retrospect this movie was ahead of it's time, loong before "Reality" shows were a staple of regular TV programming. This movie was a preview of where things could go right or wrong for entertainment.
