Jim Carrey gives an outstanding performance during this movie and it adds that little bit more comedy to the movie, which makes it amazing. Overall, this movie never feels like it drags for a second and it's quite a clever movie from the start but it's honestly worth the watch. Expand

Such a well executed plot. So much fun to watch.

Jim Carrey, an actor I always enjoying watching, is terrific in the lead as Truman - he kills every moment, very much the perfect person to play this role. Laura Linney (Hannah), Ed Harris
Such a well executed plot. So much fun to watch.

Jim Carrey, an actor I always enjoying watching, is terrific in the lead as Truman - he kills every moment, very much the perfect person to play this role. Laura Linney (Hannah), Ed Harris (Christof) and Noah Emmerich (Louis) are the best of the rest, while Paul Giamatti (Simeon) even appears.

'The Truman Show' is one of those films that I've heard a great deal about down the years so I'm happy to have finally got around to seeing it. It's excellent. It's well paced and just a really entertaining and thoughtful premise to watch unfold. Brilliant film.

Really interesting themes and ideas. Good commentary and satire, some of which is in your face, some of which is hidden very deep within.

Why would Jim make a bland dramedy like this ? Jim is phenomenal at whacky comedy he should always avoid dramatic movies. This movie is a train wreck.

As far as Jim Carey goes in my eyes this is his absolute best work he has ever done. He is relatable, funny and just so amazingly enjoyable to watch.

Original screenplays like this are a rarity. Truly an iconic film. There is nothing like it. It's not perfect though, they could have done more with the characters surrounding Truman. Especially the secret woman.

The casting of Jim Carrey was equal parts genius and unfortunately flawed. In the 90's a certain audience had built around seeing the newest Jim Carrey movie, of course expecting his usual brilliant comedic material. This type of audience was unprepared for this movie and apparently (looking at the current user score average of 6.7) they still are. This is unfortunate because this movie is brilliant. Jim Carrey is brilliant. The Direction, writing and score are masterclasses. This is the greatest performance of Ed Harris' career and obviously that is saying something. He is absolutely mesmerizing as God/Christof. Last but not least is Phillip Glass' masterpiece Truman Sleeps. A gorgeous piano score that is beautifully used to character building perfection. Im not kidding even the background/extras direction is a masterclass in filmmaking. Also note its under 2 hour runtime. Any more would be bloated. Any less diminishment. Watch this movie. Then Watch it again, and again and again.

It's worth it.
