"A number is just a number. Or is it?"

Rating: 3/10 (11 November 2011)

Walter Sparrow becomes obsessed with a novel that he believes was written about him. As his obsession increases, more and more similarities seem to arise.
After watching the trailer, I became admittedly attracted. A horror/thriller starring Jim Carrey, the man behind the silliest mans on movie history. This led to me waiting on it's release, and it suddenly became a DVD watch. Let's just say, I was extremely disappointed. With mixed expectations, I thought the Number 23 was a horrible film. First off, the character of Jim Carrey's grows more and more throughout. Basically, it turns worse and worse. I think the film tried to hard to be unique or something new to attract fans of this genre, because everything began to fall apart. Little scattered pieces of scenes (comic-book esqued) were not needed, and made the film even worse. The lame struggles are seriously boring and Jim Carrey's performance was mediocre at best. Everything else was fine, but doesn't make up for the mistakes. Then we have the end, which was seriously a disaster. It still arises questions and left many unanswered. So, that about wraps it. I don't see how anybody could enjoy it, but if it sounds interesting to you still, I may recommend you to stay away. It seriously isn't for everyone. Love it or hate it. 3/10.
