Didn't understand the motive of the character but the film was nicely directed with a very strong performance from Jim Carey.

Rating: 8/10 (2 September 2012)

The film relies heavily on the acting performance of Jim. It is a biographical drama and there was no flaw in the direction, but what lacked in the film was the representation of the ideas of Andy Kauffman. This film is entertaining even though it had the flaws of character analysis. You'll definitely not regret watching this.
PROS:
The acting of Jim Carey is flawless and extremely satisfying. He did his best in making an entertaining film. What I got about the ideas of the character- "Andy Kauffman" is that he wanted to do something unorthodox and was rejected a lot of times. This line is attractive and makes us watch how it was handles in a film. Other cast performed fine. The story is good. I am glad that they made a film on this character.
CONS:
Just one little and important thing which is missing in the film is its ability to make the audience understand the ideas of a major comedian. The soothing fact of the film is that he wanted to be original all the time and that is something worth watching.
MESSAGE: "Dare to be different."
VERDICT: "A recommended watch."
