Jim Carrey
Did anyone happen to catch 'Bruce Almighty'?
Whats the matter with Jim, he seems to have lost his comic edge in this film. Its short around 80min (if that) & I don't remember much of it & no I wasn't drunk.
Do you like his comedies or his other films
The Truman Show
Man On The Moon
The Majestic
I like both but I don't think he is worth 20-30million a picture after seeing Bruce Almighty.
I think he could have been in Dumb & Dumberer & have more laughs, what ya think?

Haven't seen Bruce yet, it's not out here for another couple of weeks.
Dumb & Dumberer is a prequel, and with Jim Carreys pay so high, it made sense to go with a younger cast. Read up on Jeff Daniels take on this: http://www.killermovies.com/d/dumba...icles/2789.html

I think Jim Carrey is a good stand-up comedian and does ok in dramas like Majestic (i think thats the name) but in comedies he just repeats himself way to much. His to fisical in them and his fisical jokes and dialoge placement,the way the says the words and breaks the senteces, is always the same.

Yeh, he is getting better in dramas. He’s kind of do the Tom Hanks thing, NO Im not saying he can act near as well as Hanks but starting in that same direction.

I thought more out-takes at the end were needed from this film.
My fav Jim performance is Man On The Moon, Majestic was alright, a complete change from anything he has done before. (you almost forget you are watching Jim, funny man)
He is no Tom Hanks for sure & here is something to think about, Would you agree Jim was NOT nominated for an Oscar for either Truman or Man On The Moon because he made a joke about the Oscars in 'The Mask'?
Or just because he is Canadian, hmm.

I think its just hard for the academy to take him serious, but really, who cares what the academy thinks anyways?

I don't really like Jim Carrey much anymore. I think he is way over-rated. Bruce Almighty wasn't nearly as funny as I expected it to be and it was way too short. Aren't Disney movies suppossed to be that length?????~

I thought that Bruce Almighty was one of the best movies ever made. For two reasons Jim Carrey and it was shot in my home town here in good old Buffalo NY. They decided to only shoot some location shots here and Jim Carrey never shot here but did visit to see the town.
