Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/17/25 Full Review Jelisije J This movie starts off a bit slow and is a bit formulaic, but the ending is good that you cant help but wanting to watch this film a second time the moment its done. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/11/25 Full Review Audience Member This film is a masterpiece without a doubt. I never watched the whole movie before—I’ve seen bits and pieces on TV a few times, so I knew the plot, but this was my first time sitting down and watching it from start to finish. And I gotta tell you, it’s really good. Before watching this, I was fully aware of Nasubi’s story (if you know, you know), and it made me think even more about how Truman’s life mirrors some of the same themes—being watched, controlled, and living in a constructed reality. But what really hit me is how this movie makes you question your own life. Like, if you really think about it, our lives aren’t that different from Truman’s. We’re all kind of living in our own little bubbles, following routines, and sometimes it feels like we’re just NPCs in someone else’s story. Who’s the main character? Who’s watching? It’s trippy to think about. Jim Carrey absolutely killed it in this role. It’s crazy how he can make you laugh one second and then hit you with this deep, emotional performance the next. The way he portrays Truman’s confusion, curiosity, and eventual determination to break free is just incredible. And the supporting cast? Perfect. Everyone plays their part so well, especially Ed Harris as Christof—he’s chilling in how calm and controlling he is. The cinematography and the way the movie is shot also add so much to the story. The way the camera angles make you feel like you’re part of the show, watching Truman, just like the audience in the movie—it’s genius. And the soundtrack? Spot on. It’s subtle but so effective in setting the mood. Overall, The Truman Show isn’t just a movie; it’s an experience. It makes you laugh, it makes you think, and it stays with you long after the credits roll. It’s a timeless piece of art that feels even more relevant today with how much of our lives are lived online and under scrutiny. If you haven’t seen it yet, do yourself a favor and watch it. It’s a 10/10 for me, no question. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/07/25 Full Review Harry W This movie has one of the most unique plots that has brilliant character development and one of Jim Carey's best performances. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/30/25 Full Review Evie G 100% worth a watch. Jim Carrey's acting never fails to amaze me and The Truman Show wasn't any different. Although, I already knew the twist due to social media, so i couldn't enjoy this movie to it's fullest. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/24/25 Full Review Read all reviews
