"From zero to hero"

Rating: 6/10 (11 October 2011)

Bank clerk Stanley Ipkiss is transformed into a manic super-hero when he wears a mysterious mask.
I feel kind of sad to see that people say that this is Jim Carrey's best movie. I'm guessing they haven't seen Eternal Sunshine. But anyways, The Mask is a very goofy movie and almost perfect for Jim Carrey. Sure, it is a little stupid in ways but I rated it basically on it's point. The point was to be silly, and it succeeded at that. The Mask is a very good Jim Carrey performance and he is a very great actor who just loves to have fun. The film also introduces the stunning Cameron Diaz, I think this was her film debut and she did very well for her part. The Mask's scenes where possibly the worst as the comedy really isn't my thing and it's just plain silly but it still kept me entertained. The score I must add, is very good and I just mean the theme. Very mysterious and plays in my head. 6/10.
