Jim Carrey's creativity and talen can't be denied. I've always felt that his movies were "over the top" but many were quite successful at the box office, and so directors and Carrey himself were right in having him push the envelope. On the other hand, Carrey, like all comedians, has the a

One of Carrey's more "serious" movies is "The Truman Show"...a nice blend of spiritual values (i.e. there's much more to Reality than the reality we live daily) and his usual comedic charm. The premise is definitely unique making it one of the classics, and it's well worth the rental price.
