477802, Me, Myself, and Irene

This is some of the best, if not THE best, physical comedy Jim Carrey has ever done.

The movie is underrated. Inconsistent, sure, but full of huge laughs.
477803, kinda feel like watching it now, actually

...I knew exactly what was coming. When homeboy's head pops back in the frame that last time...I fucking lost it.

477812, That bit got me again while watching it just now.

PERFECTLY executed.

Posted by Wrongthink, Sun Sep-27-09 08:55 PM
but I never revisited it. Is it worth it?

I remember some wild ass shit about trying to kill a cow.
477821, I feel the exact same way...

Certain kinds of cheap laughs pretty much always get me. Adults swearing at small children or small children swearing inappropriately (Bobbe'J Thompson in Role Models, for instance) always does it. I don't care what kinda substance, I just get all giggly and shit.

But yeah, I really like that movie. It's reputation probably suffers because it was the follow up to Something About Mary and as good as it is, it's not quite at that level.

It's far better than Pet Detective IMO

My top 5 Carrey comedies would look like this

Dumb & Dumber
Me, Myself & Irene
Liar Liar
The Cable Guy
The Mask

477941, I take Ace over The Mask, no question
Posted by MadDagoNH, Mon Sep-28-09 11:04 AM
I mean, granted, I was like 12 when it came out so pretty much the perfect age, but it was hysterical then and I can't help dying every time I see it again.

I'm with you on Dumb & Dumber at the one spot for sure, though. That movie holds up like a bastard. So many little moments of genius thrown into a stupid screwball comedy. Anyone who doesn't laugh really hard when he shouts, 'we landed on the moon!' must take no joy in life.

I can see that. I'm not as huge fan of either one but remember being slightly more entertained with The Mask. But now that I think about it I might put Bruce Almighty right there with both of those. All 3 are kinda mediocre though when you get down to it.

when he approaches those guys at the gas station for throwing their cigarette butts - that kills me every time.

follow-up to something about mary I even think stuck on you and Shallow Hal are way funnier than people give it props for.

Posted by zuma1986, Tue Sep-29-09 09:56 PM
I mean sure it had some chuckles but there was no scene anywhere close to as funny as when Jim Carrey starts peeing after he came.
478483, Stuck on You grew on me like crazy.
