Totally Awesome

Rating: 8/10 (21 June 2007)

I was much younger than I am now when this film was released in 1994, but it has been a favorite since. I always did like Jim Carrey, and this was only the second film of his I saw. And this film was a starting point in Cameron Diaz's career.
The acting in the film was moderate, with Jim Carrey being his exceptionally funny self, and Cameron Diaz stealing the scenes. It was hard to picture Amy Yasbeck as a backstabbing reporter who broke her silence about the Mask.
It was good to see by the end that Jim Carrey threw the Mask away and got the girl. It was an excellent film, one in which thrust Diaz into super stardom. And Jim Carrey's popularity was thrust into the stratosphere with this film. The start of his major career.
