One of Jim Carrey's Best Performances

Rating: 9/10 (26 May 2005)

I thought The Trueman Show was one of Jim Carrey's best performances. He should be playing more serious roles in films like this one. I think since he became really successful through comedic movies like "The Mask" or "Ace Ventura" he was categorized as a comedic actor. I think if he didn't accept those roles, he would be offered more serious roles today and I think he would be successful at it. I liked all of the irony in the movie, like all the scenes that were related to the bible. This is one of the movies I really paid attention to the detail and not just the entertainment aspect of the film. I'd like to see Jim Carrey in more serious roles in the future. If you've only seen Jim Carrey in comedic roles, this is a movie you should check out.
