Thought Provoking

Rating: 9/10 (14 October 1998)

This film had a subtle and powerful message about the nature of control, and about the role of the media in today's World Gonne Madde (whose life is really controlled by the media? - Truman's or ours?). It was cleverly executed with lots of nice touches, and a surprisingly good performance from Carrey who led his character on the voyage of dawning realisation with conviction, but still managed to remain endearing and induce sympathy from the audience.
Probably worth a few Oscars, but probably won't get them.
