Please Jim, Come out with a REAL good one!

Rating: Null/10 (18 May 2004)

Jim Carey may be one of the best comics alive today, evolving from In Living Color to his own standup to GREAT movies like the Mask, but after the disappointment of Me and Irene and Bill Almighty I was really praying for something I could sink my teeth into, after even Dumb and Dumber was MADE funny by his acting to a large part. But here confusion and thin plot rule this film and Jim's talent become lost once again, buried behind poor writing, poor cinematography, and poor character development. Nice soundtrack keeps the movie moving at all. Too many beach scenes, too much unexplained, and just too much nothing that has nothing to do in the picture so I suppose bad editing can be added to the list. Jim, you're funny, and as I said before perhaps the funniest (way funnier than Seinfeld and Sandler) so go for it, find the right script and make another great one, you certainly have the talent, don't make it 4 mediocre films in a row.
