"Jim Carrey returns to form in the wonderfully silly and smartly done
Bruce Almighty."       -- Steve Persall, St. Petersburg Times. Read this review.
"Carrey's rambunctiously funny new comedy...the notion of omnipotence prompts
Mr. Carrey to go to new adrenaline-crazed comic extremes."       -- Steven Holden, New York Times. Read this review.
When aspiring news-anchorman Bruce Nolan (Jim Carrey) too vocally expresses his
displeasure about the way the Big Guy is running things, God (Morgan Freeman)
teaches him a lesson -- not with punishment, but with privilege. And with
privilege, comes responsibility. This average joe is transformed as he is
given the biggest job of all, complete with all the requisite supernatural
powers. But is Bruce up to the task, or is he more interested in getting back
at his enemies, housetraining his pet, and making his girlfriend (Jennifer
Aniston) more voluptuous?
Carrey's comedic talents are used to their best effect yet in this hilarious,
fantastic, and touching tale. It's not what you expect...it's charming,
intelligent, and fun.
