It's only flaw

Rating: Null/10 (15 February 2003)

it that the film is not long enough. Rarely something to complain about, The Truman Show nonetheless needed two extra scenes to first demonstrate the climax of Jim Carrey's character at his momentous discovery and then the catalyst to transform. Other than this, the film is perfectly delightful - high praise indeed from one of Jim Carrey's biggest non-fans. Something original from Hollywood, and well in advance of the "reality show" craze, is definitely a rarity.
