The Truman Show is truly a classic and truly original

Rating: 10/10 (16 August 2007)

This is one of the most creative movies I have ever watched.The Truman Show stars Jim Carrey as Truman Burbank who is a salesman who suspects that his life isn't as normal as it would seem as he is unknowingly the star of a reality television show which is filming 24/7 that is focused on his life entirely.When I first heard of this movie,I thought it would be a comedy but I soon realised it was more of a drama however there was still some comedy in it.The film also has a good supporting cast in the form of Laura Linney,Noah Emmerich and Ed Harris.It also had a good director in the form of Peter Weir but the one thing that should have been done is that the Academy should have at least given Jim Carrey an Academy Award nomination for Best Actor as he rightfully deserved to be nominated at least and because he is a great actor but would be Hollywood's most underrated actor.But either way,this film was a very great and creative film.
