A comedy of Almighty proportions

Rating: 10/10 (27 September 2007)

If you want to see Evan Almighty,just wait a little bit as you haven't seen nothing almighty yet. Bruce Almighty is the prequel to Evan Almighty and stars Jim Carrey as the Buffalo field reporter who loves to crack a joke,Bruce Nolan who one day feels like he has an unfortunate life and is in deep misery and also stars Jennifer Aniston as Grace Connelly who is Bruce's girlfriend.After Bruce has had his worst day ever, he decides to blame God(Morgan Freeman).But then,God teaches Bruce that being the man himself isn't as easy as it seems. Besides superb performances from Jim Carrey and Jennifer Aniston, Morgan Freeman also delivers a compelling performance as God as in one of the most memorable scenes in the movie, he appears as the janitor,electrician and boss of the building Bruce goes to visit after receiving a mystery number that was paged to him but Steve Carrell's sort of short but memorable performance is one thing to look out for as well as Philip Baker Hall's character as Bruce's boss Jack Baylor.
