overrated

Rating: 5/10 (24 May 2003)

Jim Carrey continues to show his limitations in this semi-funny, semi-poignant yawner. While there are a few laugh-out-loud moments (particularly when Bruce is controlling his rival anchor), most of the film is only mildly entertaining. I expected more from this cast. Much less funny and original than "Oh God," this film's ideas about divine power and what would happen if one of us became God are pretty stale.
I'm ready for Jim Carrey to do something better, something as silly as "Mask."
