Even film, but Carrey blows it

Rating: Null/10 (13 October 2001)

The subject says it all. This would be a great film about one of the oddest guys in showbiz. Unfortunately and quite frankly Carrey might have nailed Kaufman on stage, but geez he is just not able to add depth to the character. Milos tries his best, but with a desastrous cast like Carrey (uhm the rest of the cast is actually quite good), there is no way out. The film falls flat. BIG TIME. Still! I like to watch it as a reference to Kaufman and the evil tricks he used to play on friends and his audience. Very entertaining. What a character. Let's just hope Carrey stays away from interesting guys like Kafman in the future and goes back to the cheap laughs where he belongs for good and I don't mean this in a negative way, I just think that is what he really can do best. The Farelli brothers and Carrey might make a team ;)
