Jim Carrey Dominates!

Rating: 10/10 (3 March 2007)

I am personally a fan of actors who go outside their normal genre and take on projects that are totally different. Like Ashton Kutcher, after doing That 70's Show and some other comedies, it was really cool to see him in The Butterfly Effect. Jim Carrey had already done this when he took on the Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind project. By him taking on The Number 23, it shows how multifaceted he is as an actor. Although he will always be known for his comedic adventures, he should be remembered for also being involved in dramas and an amazing suspense thriller.
In the film, he plays an average everyday dog catcher, when suddenly "fate" takes over and he begins reading a book that seems to be about his life. He figures out how the number 23 relates to him in a million different ways.
The scenes from the book reminded me of Sin City with the darkness and contrast of colors.
It was an amazing movie i would recommend to anyone.
The ending will absolutely surprise you !
