CCTV

Rating: 8/10 (14 December 2019)

Don´t get paranoid but you will never see the world the same way after having watched this film. I had found it very original and clever back in the days, but now that CCTV and the internet are everywhere, it is the reflect of our world, with many true-fake news, cameras capturing our whereabouts all day long, keeping records of our every minutes activities. In modern technology, there is the GDPR, cookies, websites and scams that we are being taught to analyse to protect us.
The Truman show is about a person who thinks that his perfect life is what it is, until he starts noticing details that makes him wonder what and who he can actually trust.
The reason why this film is a family show is because it is not all dark. The ´bad people´ are just human beings with not only good intentions, and there are also good people, as in real life.
I would like to add the note that I didn´t like Jim Carrey before this film as he was always overacting. But here, he showed a talent that much of the audience had never suspected.
