Where was Tony Danza?

Rating: 8/10 (31 December 1999)

Okay, Jim Carrey has skills. He has proven himself to be a serious actor. Let's not forget Tom Hanks started out on Bosom Buddies. Man on the Moon is about the life story of Andy Kauffman. It is pretty much straight-forward and filled with the facts. The only little secret revealed is after an appearence on David Letterman. I don't know if that was ever revealed to the public. I don't want to give away a spoiler. But other than that, nothing actually new is revealed about Andy Kauffman's controversial life. The movie is really a tribute, not a source for answers. And there's nothing wrong with that. This is a very good movie and I recommend everyone see it. But is it oscar-quality? Jim Carrey, yes. The film, no.
