Different Than Expected (possibly spoilers)

Rating: 8/10 (22 July 2003)

But still good. Jim Carrey offers a funny yet serious performance as a man who has lost faith in God. After spending a while in God's shoes, he discovers that the job ain't that easy and has trouble figuring out how he's supposed to help so many people who are praying to him every second of every day. Meanwhile, he's having problems with his job and his girlfriend (Aniston).
In the end, this movie completely shocked me. I expected it to be ALL fun and laughs and nothing really serious. As it turns out, Bruce (Carrey) turns out to be a sensitive man only willing to please his girlfriend and make her happy even if that involves him not being in her life. He also learns that the people praying to God, need to have enough faith in themselves to figure things out themselves, and believe in themselves. It holds for a very strong and possibly very emotional ground for those that have extreme faith in God. Some may be offended by some of Carrey's remarks when angry with God; others may find this movie insightful to their own faith and prayer.

If neither, you still have Carrey to give you a couple of laughs along the way!
