Surprisingly excellent


I really enjoyed this movie from beginning to end. Not sure there was a single lull moment in the entire film.

And Jim Carey was awesome as usual.

It was better than I expected. I caught it halfway through and now I want to see it from the beginning!

I thought it was really funny. Watched it with the family and we were roaring with laughter in parts. I'm surprised it's got so much grief on the boards here.

Did we watch the same movie? I would have stopped watching after 5 minutes if Jim Carrey didn't make me hold out until half of the movie but then I walked away. He was the only saving grace of this movie but the scenes with him were just too short. The rest of the movie was so boring. A shame really. I've never been a huge fan of Steve, the quality of his movies vary a lot and this sure isn't one of his finer work that's for sure.

Agreed. It could have been a really funny film but it just doesn't have that touch of magic. Too many long, lean sessions where laughs are few and far between, not to mention everything plays out so predictably.🐭

Completely agree. this movie was more enjoyable than I thought it would be. 8/10 from me.

I enjoyed it even though I hate Jim Carrey, but he was pretty good as the rival magician in this flick. 7/10 from me.
