Movie Review

Jim Carrey ventures into a new frontier, away from slapstick comedy and into drama. The Truman Show is one of the most provocative, original, and strangely dark movies ever, where no one is who they seem. Great acting, great story, great scripting. The Truman Show is an original masterpiece! Jim Carrey finally steps into a new genre without losing what he's best known for! Full movie review »
