Carrey is back...

Rating: Null/10 (29 May 2003)

Who would of thought we'd live to see the day that Jim Carrey...the godfather of comedy would snap out of his trance and go back to his roots? With the release of Bruce Almighty, Carrey fans can rejoice and yell with utmost confidence, "No more Truman-Magestic Crap!!" Carrey, after proving to the world he can be a serious actor, finally has decided to go back to just being the "allrighty-then" guy we all miss and love. Remember the good ol' days of Ace Ventura, Dumb & Dumber, and the Mask? Those were the golden days when Carrey was at his prime. And although Bruce Almighty isn't the greatest moral epic that's come around, it's a milestone for Carrey fans. I won't go into detail about summaries of the movie, except I will speak of the moral issues I encountered durring its viewing. For one, the movie sort of pokes fun at God and what he stands for. Now I know that in the end, Bruce learns his lesson and realizes the greatness of God and that love is pure, but durring the trip, he does perform some offenisve manuevers. One of that being that shortly after the "becomes" God, he goes to have premarital sex with his girlfriend...a thing which God sternly condems. Not only will this offend many, it might draw away from Carrey's fanbase. Although me being a strong and loyal Carrey fan, will not sway, I long for the days of old. Will Carrey go back to his real roots and be the guy we miss? Lets hope the cookie crumbles that way.
