Being God...

Rating: 8/10 (15 April 2005)

"Bruce Almighty" is an amusing film, which is all about a man, who basically has terrible luck in everything he does. Everyday.
Produced by T.Shadyac, the cast includes Jim Carrey as Bruce Nolan, Jennifer Aniston as Bruce Nolan's girlfriend Grace, and Academy Award Winner Morgan Freeman as God. One must say it's a darn good cast.
The story begins with Bruce Nolan's daily routines. He doesn't enjoy his job, at a television channel's studio. Suddenly, someone retires from "Live News", and Bruce's dreams come closer. -- He passionately wants to replace him, as a new caster. All he wants to do is representing the show, and become famous around the city. But he has no luck! He couldn't be promoted. On the other hand, he starts fighting with his girlfriend, and tries to cope with his pet. Even his dog doesn't listen to him. Thus, he decides to talk to God, and tell him his troubles. Finally, and miraculously he manages to have a conversation with God. After that incredible event, Bruce gains some powers to rule the whole world for only 24 hours.
The film is definitely full of funny moments, and you can also see some special effects such as; running through the sea, organizing the moon and stars, hearing the prayers of people all around the world.
The cast is good, as I've pointed out before, actors give a superb performance, and the special effects are entertaining. So, I highly recommend it.
