Review
An original plot and a miscast Jim Carrey
is the basis for this message comedy by Ben Stiller. There's thinly veiled media
criticism intertwined with dark comedy, which despite Carrey's presence falls
flat and gives the film a sluggish, wearisome quality. A different approach and
lead actor might have made this one interesting.
