A good movie that could've been great if it had a better actor in the lead role.

I think that this could have been one of the best if they had planned the film thoroughly. It is still great though.

Jim Carrey is funny as always, but in this movie he's something more than just a wacky character. Although difficult to imagine carried out in real life, the whole concept of the television show is interesting and most importantly, thought-provoking. The end is one of the most transcendental experiences I've ever had watching a movie. Truly recommended to those who have avoided it until now.

I've seen pieces of this movie, but today was the first time that I watched it from start to finish. Loved it.

It took a while for me to get into it, but once it got going I enjoyed it quite a bit.

Pretty much the only good thing Jim Carrey's ever done as far as I'm concerned, but man, is it good...
