An average movie

Even though this movie had a rather lame reputation, somehow, I still ended up watching the damned thing. Apparently, after making ‘Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls’, Jim Carrey decided he got enough of making sequels, he turned most of them down. Eventually, they all turned out to be some massive flops without him and this one was not exception. I mean, to start up, ‘Bruce Almighty’ was maybe a decent comedy but it was nothing great and it mostly worked thanks to Carrey. Therefore, without the funny guy, this project was pretty much doomed from the start. On top of that, it was incredibly expensive to make (8 years later, it is still the most expensive comedy ever made) and there would be approximately a 30 millions dollar loss after some disappointing results at the box-office. Basically, the end-result was rather boring and not really funny. Back then, Steve Carell just got his breakthrough a couple of years before with ‘The 40 Year Old Virgin’ and even though the guy can be pretty funny, the whole concept was just really half-baked and they spent way too much time and money in some unnecessary special effects. To conclude, it is some very average stuff and,  in spite of Steve Carell, I’m afraid it  is not really worth a look.
