A true American classic...

Rating: 10/10 (8 October 2000)

Wow... this is not what I expected from a Jim Carrey movie. As Truman Burbank, Carrey displays an emotional depth in this movie like I've never seen him portray before. As a man who's begun to realize that his entire world is not what it seems, Truman's reactions to these breakdowns in his reality are priceless. The car trip in which he tries to escape the `city' is absolutely hilarious. Carrey's typical brand of slapstick and low-class humor is thankfully absent from this movie. In its place is a movie that you feel good laughing at. And Truman's scene with his `father' is a true work of art. Don't miss this movie.
