Saw a Special Sneak Screening in Boston

Rating: 10/10 (16 December 1999)

One word sums up all the talk about Jim Carrey portraying Andy Kaufman "BRILLIANT". You loose yourself in the movie not watching Jim Carrey but watching, and believing, it is Andy Kaufman. If you have seen any of the Andy Kaufman specials on comedy central, or have seen Andy Kaufman other than on taxi then you will truly appreciate this brilliant movie. If not then after you leave the movie you will be wanting to see more of Andy Kaufman. Devito, Giamatti, and Love all make performances of a lifetime, and you can certainly add this to one of the tops of the brilliant Milos Forman masterpieces. When a movie makes you leave yourself and feel like your in the film and want to know him, that is a movie that you will never forget. The opening scene is brilliant, it shows you exactly what kind of a ride your in for and it lives up to the hype around it. A+++
