Truly a fantastic film

Rating: 10/10 (27 October 2002)

I just watched this film again after visiting Seaside in Pensacola Florida, where some of the scenes were filmed. I was mainly looking to see if I could recognize any of the scenery, but was reminded at how good this movie really is.
Jim Carrey's performance in this movie was really terrific, and although there were a few scenes that featured his trademark silly face routine, many other scenes demonstrated what a fine actor he really is. One scene in particular that stands out in my mind is towards the end, when he begins to realize the true scope of his situation - the editing of the scene hides his face throughout, and the viewer can still feel his pain.
Truly a great film that rightly deserves to be in the IMDB Top 250, and it's sad that Carrey didn't at least get an Oscar nomination for his work.
