Unique, Ambitious, Well Executed

Rating: 9/10 (15 March 2020)

Jim Carrey shines once again in this film, proving (as if he has to at this point) what a strong actor he truly is.
The Truman Show follows a young man (named Truman) who isn't aware that his entire life is a reality show. The movie focuses on his gradual awareness and attempts to break free of the control that unseen forces have over his every move.
It's an extremely unique idea, and it makes for a very ambitious film. It's the kind of idea that needs to be carefully executed because it's an easy one to fail to correctly portray, but the team behind The Truman Show did a fantastic job. At no point in this movie does it feel like it's dragging. At no point was I compelled to check the time on my phone.
It was weird, it was zany, it was unlike anything I've ever seen before. I loved every second of it. It really leaves you with a number of important things to think about and contemplate. Well worth the time.
