I really enjoyed this film. was a bit worried about taking my boyfriend to see it as i really didnt think he'd like it but we actually both really enjoyed it. there were only a couple of uncomfortable moments but other than that it was funny with a good plot. not as funny as jim carreys other films, but just as good :-)

jim carrey is funny in most of his films and is funny in this one but this is not one of his best like batman or liar liar. i will give it 2.9 out 5.
