Embarrassment

Rating: 2/10 (17 January 2008)

It's hard to believe anyone would associate themselves with a movie this ridiculous. Even though this pathetic bomb is an easy target for mockery using the number 23, it's not even worthy of it. Any such joke would have far more creative content than this film does.
Anybody could make up a dumb legend about any randomly chosen number they want, making the premise nonsensical. Even worse is the way Jim Carrey, in a Razzy-worthy performance, slithers around moaning out hilariously stupid lines of paranoia about this evil number which is plotting to kill us all and take over the universe. The overall tone of the film's cinematography and music shoot for eeriness, but come off comical when utilized behind the absurdity of this story.
Laughable script. Appalling direction. Atrocious cast. This film is slop.
