Nice ideas, could have been better!

Rating: Null/10 (15 January 1999)

Yes, the Truman show is a great movie which is similar to the 1960's cult TV series 'The Prisoner' in terms of plot and style. This movie shows what Jim Carrey can do with the right guidance, unlike his other forgettable roles. But the movie could have been improved if it was longer to show what happens when Truman enters the real world. A parody could have been made between the life of Princess Diane and Truman as the cameras would not be secret anymore and people will see him as someone famous and treat his privacy accordingly in the real world. Imagine the problems this would have caused!!!
