Feel good

This is a nice film. A movie that will make you laugh. I smiled most of the movie, and may be that was too long (146 minutes),I enjoyed it all. The story (a man with amnesia is seen as a long lost son in a small town) is not that special, but it has some nice things to avoid the bigger cliches. Jim Carrey is great as he was in The Truman Show. The movie is very well made, and in the end you will have a nice feeling about it.

The serious side of Carrey

I often wondered how Carrey would handle a drama and now I know. Totally enjoyed this trip through nostalgiatown as Carrey rejuvenated a town with his infectious personality. Heavily dramatic at times but always with an undercurrent of jollity running through it. I especially appreciated Carrey's dead on comments in the military graveyard.

long slow and sappy

It's 1951. Peter Appleton (Jim Carrey) is a Hollywood B-movie script writer on the rise. He attended an antiwar meeting during college and he's blacklisted. His contract isn't renewed and his movie is pulled. He begs to testify in Congress willing to make up names for them. He wakes up with amnesia after a drunken crash. Stan Keller brings him to the quiet town of Lawson, California. Dr. Stanton (David Ogden Stiers) treats him seeing something familiar in him. Harry Trimble (Martin Landau) believes him to be his MIA son Luke. They live above the rundown theater The Majestic. Adele Stanton (Laurie Holden) was Luke's girlfriend. The town was devastated after losing sixty young men during the war.

The first half is a slow ponderous story but I like the nice fable. I'm willing to accept it. It's got an old-fashion sentimental feel. However the movie just won't stop. It's long and slow already. The ending runs on. The hearing turns too preachy. It becomes very sappy. It turns from nicely sentimental to sickly sweet.
