Lasting Movie

Rating: Null/10 (13 June 2000)

I have to come out and say that this movie was great. When I saw this movie, I knew very little about Andy Kaufman or his life. With this lack of information, I don't know how far this movie was from his real life. From what I had heard, it looks like it is pretty close. I think it covered his life with great works. I don't have as much to say about the movie as I do about Jim Carrey's performance. Although I know it went along with the movie's theme practically, but I don't know if I like the very end in the night club. But I guess it did show how he will be remembered, but could also confuse people about his death. Jim Carrey's performance was AWSOME. I heard Ed Norton was also a choice to play Andy. I don't know if that could have been better. I agree on Jim receiving the Golden Globe. But would like to ask the "Academy" what Jim has to do to get nominated. This performance was extremely hard. It is hard becoming a complex character,in which Andy's was way beyond that. For Jim's performance as Kaufman, out of a 10 (10 being a reproduction of Andy) I would give Carrey a 8 1/2 or 9. And even with a 6 grade, he should have got nominated. I mean, COME ON. Well that is all I have to say about the movie. If you haven't seen it, watch it. "Thank you very much"
