It's life Jim (Carrey), but not as we know it...

Rating: 10/10 (10 June 2013)

Have you ever had the feeling that your entire life is actually just a reality television show, and that your every waking moment has been predetermined? Well, for insurance salesman Truman Burbank, that's exactly what has happened. He is unknowingly the star of the world's top reality show. All his family, friends, work colleagues, neighbours and everyone else he meets on the island of Seahaven are actually actors. Bored with his life and desperate to travel, he begins to notice that something isn't right...
Jim Carrey is excellent as Truman, proving that as with "The Number 23" (2007), "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" (2004) and "Man on the Moon" (1999), he doesn't need to rely on silly faces and slapstick to give a great performance. Along with top supporting roles for Ed Harris as television producer Christof, and Laura Kinney as his 'wife', this is an absolute must watch.
