One of the movies that really raises questions about one's own life

Rating: 8/10 (27 July 2015)

The story is indeed a great example of a thought demanding tale. Even for now, the story still stands as one of the greatest, especially for me. What's lacking about the movie is that even though it runs at about two ours, it doesn't really elaborate much on Truman's unsuspecting life. The movie immediately sets its conflicts and Truman's suspicions as soon as Truman's character is introduced. Nevertheless the movie can really hold on to its grip over the story and exploits all it can from the angles by using the lens filters and robotics-moved cameras to give the actual spy- cam feel. The acting overall feels also nice. Jim Carrey's acting feels suiting to Truman's character and the changes he goes through.Laura Linney did her part well enough, maintaining that smirk almost all over her screen time. Noah Emmerich did also well by providing the balance needed for Truman's dialogs. Natascha McElhone and Ed Harris did nice in completing the needed angles this movie requires.
