Original and intellectual

Rating: 9/10 (30 May 2000)

Maybe the biggest mistake of the makers of The Truman Show was bringing the film in the theatres almost at the same time Ed Tv was playing or was going to play. This is no Ed Tv, but I think many people actually think that. The Truman Show is more interesting and especially genius in style. Maybe the best part of the film is that the viewer actually feels with the character. Also it's one of the most original movies I have seen in years. The way the story unfolds is wonderful to see. I will not tell you how the story goes because then I will say things that uncover already basic elements of the movie. You just have to see it for yourself. Jim Carrey is amazing to watch and Ed Harris is his usually self, that means brilliant without stealing the show. That part is for Carrey and he doesn't use his gags or funny faces to amuse us. Enjoy a interesting and magnificent experience, a movie with high standards to amuse every age.
