JESUS SAVES BUT THIS MOVIE SUCKS!!!

Rating: 1/10 (2 June 2003)

I was excited to go see this film. It had been a long time since I went to see a Jim Carrey movie and I was definitely up for a good comedy. So why not go see Bruce Almighty? I loved the Cable Guy and Carrey's had a few other shining moments despite some of his recent films looking pretty bad. This film seemed to have potential...
MAN! WAS I EVER WRONG!!! I COULDN'T HAVE BEEN MORE WRONG!!!
Now don't get me wrong. Little kids will love it and the religious right will embrace this movie as an undeniably factual document proving the existence of a higher power, but there isn't much here for the movie-goer who's looking for something genuinely funny.
Most of the humor boils down to Carrey enunciating a certain word, people falling down or getting hurt, and a "zany" catch phrase delivered by Bruce at the end of his newscasts. There's not much else except for a few very random yet mildly clever moments. Oh yeah...Carrey curses God excessively throughout the first half of the film to the point where it completely obnoxious and unnecessary. (I don't even believe in God and it got on my nerves.)
This movie is disappointing and weak on many levels. Don't believe me? Go see for yourself.
