Not to mention the adorable pet dog, underrated Peter Reigert, Peter Greene's Dorian and gorgeous Cameron Diaz. Also superb are the script, which is as funny and as imaginative as the film itself and the suitably tongue in cheek music score. There are so many good scenes though my favourite was the Bugs Bunny-style Cuban Pete routine. Here because of the special effects, Carrey moves around at whirlwind speed, pops his eyeballs and swaps parts of his anatomy for his cartoon equivalents and you know what it is jolly funny. He is helped by the special effects, which are utterly amazing, a truly imaginative and sophisticated visual style that worked so well here. Either way, he excels in this film, he is completely in his element and completely unpredictable. Here Carrey's role is split, his mild mannered banker and a wild, crazy superhero. And I also think that along with Liar Liar and The Truman Show that The Mask is one of Jim Carrey's better movies. It isn't the best movie ever or anything like that but it is still a hugely enjoyable comedy in my opinion.
Reviewed by TheLittleSongbird 10 / 10 Hugely enjoyable comedy, and by far one of Carrey's better films And, in this case, Carrey was the perfect actor for the role due to his energy and athleticism. It's filled with CGI, homages to various cartoons (such as "Swingshift Cinderella") and is worth your time. This film is enjoyable on a turn off your brain and enjoy level. Can Stanley manage to stop the gang, save the girl AND stay out of jail? Now, Stanley is part lover, part trickster.and he runs afoul of a gang intent on doing bad stuff. Upon discovering a strange Norse mask and uncovers who you really are down deep, he becomes a Tex Avery-style cartoon character in the real world. Stanley Ipkiss (Jim Carrey) is a nice guy but also a total wimp who lets people walk all over him. While the movie looks like a kids' film, there are too many adult jokes and kicks to the groin to make it a good movie for younger folks. Angelo thinks it's one of the best movies.ever! Well, while I don't match his level of enthusiasm, I did really enjoy the movie and think it's well worth your time.unless you are a kid. I have a friend in Italy that has been pestering me to watch "The Mask".
