One Word: EPIC! ♦ 91%

Rating: 9/10 (14 July 2013)

The first 20 minutes are boring and those consume the 9% of my rating aggregate. The remaining 80 minutes are EPIC.
Starting off like any other drama film, The Truman Show talks about the story of an ordinary man. But, as the plot advances and as the character grows up, psychologically, things seem to take a reality check. Throughout the realization & final mission, you stick to your seat, most of your senses concentrating on what might happen next. Twists & turns start to come up and you stay mesmerized.
Jim Carrey has won the Oscar, at least for me. His slapstick is improbable but funny. His portrayal is full of originality. Supporting cast act very well. Music symphonies provide a strong score and the screenplay just completes the classic.
I can watch this more and more and still stay baffled at the unwinding of plot. A huge 9.1/10.
BOTTOM LINE: A wonderful experience! Highly recommended!
Can be watched with a typical Indian family? YES
