A crowd pleasing triumph

Rating: Null/10 (3 August 2003)

Truman Burbank, a nice insurance salesman living in Seahaven- one of the last 1950's suburbia left. Life is the closest thing to perfect, not a glitch or a hitch.
But then Truman, played by Jim Carrey in one of his most counter-character features, starts to realize that his world is just meerly a synthetic model. You join him in his quest to find the truth, why the world fights him, and to find his true love.
Light and airy, delightful to those young and old, but sadly- any attempts at a distorted past, a darker life, or practically anything that the -great- classics have is left out. It strangely marks "Reality Television" just a few months before the world saw the synthetic model of "Survivor" and such.
For lovers of Jim Carrey expecting "Dumb and Dumber" or "The Mask" will be dissapointed, and others will be whisked away in a very good movie. Jim Carrey plays a role he has only done since in "The Majestic", and scores big.
