Fun Fun!

Rating: 9/10 (2 October 2000)

This movie is more than physical humor. I don't really care for physical humor, but I felt this was the perfect vehicle for Jim Carrey. This movie is about a man who is a victim of his own tongue. As much as he wants to lie, he can't help himself. The reactions on his face are hysterical when he realizes that what he wants to say won't be coming out of his mouth and the exact opposite does. It gets just a little schmaltzy in regard to his relationship with his son and ex-wife, but it's not so sentimental that it is nauseating. In fact, it adds a more human touch. When I originally saw this, I came out of the theater feeling like I had taken a little vacation from the cares of the world. I was thoroughly entertained, which is what I look for in a movie.
