Review: Bruce Almighty |
Bruce (Jim Carrey) has some problems: he wants for the glorious news anchor position and instead is relegated to covering human interest stories. He also has a hot girlfriend (from Friends) who prays for him. Bruce gets beat up, blows up very humorously and then blames everything on God. He is then called up via a pager to Floor 7 and a white room to meet God who offers him the challenge: see if you can do it better than me. This movie is hilarious and one of Jim Carrey’s best to date. I laughed out loud several times in this flick and the woman sitting behind me really was choked up. If you like comedies then you will enjoy this film. Bruce Almighty sort of reminds me a bit of Liar, Liar in the sappy department, but hey I like a somewhat sappy film now and again (as long as it has humor or good drama to back it up) and I’m becoming more sentimental as I get older. Grade: A-




I went to see Bruce Almighty this weekend and really enjoyed it. Certain sections reminded me of Liar Liar (a film I love) but Jennifer Aniston was the suprise, first time when I actually believed her in a role.
