Mitch B Now this isa love letter to the cinema. I love this movie and Jim Carrey's performance and also the rest of the cast was great as well and also, loved the small town in America. Great setting. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/07/25 Full Review Daughn G I personally like Jim Carey dramas. Yes some emotions are forced or rushed in some scenes but movies do that for the sake of moving along and getting on with more of the story instead of lingering on one scene and I recognize and appreciate that. Every movie has flaws but since nothing really agitates me enough to go off on a rant I think it's worth watching. Like all dramas you have to be in the mood for such a movie. This movie gives you a glimpse of what it would feel like to escape who you are for awhile and be someone else, walk in someone else's shoes only to return and be a better you. Harmless and thought provoking. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/06/25 Full Review Myra V. C I personally enjoy this movie. Is 3 hrs long but you dnt feel it. Enjoyed Jim's portray and will watch it anytime any place. Recommend Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/03/25 Full Review Tim S I watched the movie with innocent eyes. Didn't know/care if it was/wasn't derivative. I simply fell into the plot, didn't care if it was implausible. I accepted the movie as fact. From that vantage point, it was sweet and bittersweet, and hopeful, and sad, and cynical, and hopeful. The characters, assumed real, were kind and cynical and willing to find something to celebrate or memorialize or scorn, and it all worked for me. Because I accepted it as real, as plausible, as historic. I'll let the critics be critical. I'd rather simply ride the wave and hope for a safe landing. This movie gave me that, with a performance by Jim Carrey that I consider his best work. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/27/25 Full Review Audience Member I know it's a bit long so some people's attention spans will be put to the test but I thought it was a sweet movie and for the most part well written. Jim Carrey is certainly a great actor. He proves himself time and time again. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/23/25 Full Review M H I wanted to give this film a chance but it slogged along like an old steam engine on a very steap grade. The cinematography was beautiful and the locations perfect. The story had potential but instead settled for a contrived attempt to recreate a Capra movie. The main character never fully endears himself to the audience because we never get a chance to know who is really is or was. We get a hint that he is a B movie writer who served in the war and got a degree through the GI bill but that’s it. When he goes missing his real family is never shown looking for him. He’s depicted as a nobody who just happens to be the doppelgänger of a small town Medal of Honor recipient. There could have been a twist or a big reveal as his real backstory comes into view but no. This movie ends up like the main character’s screenplays. A B movie. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/19/25 Full Review Read all reviews
