Jim Carrey has always disturbed me, I’ve known guys like him in my life. Class clown but considers himself more intelligent. Empty vessel when you get right down to it, all the mugging and playing is the only way he knows how to feel human or connect with other people. More subtle or meaningful connections are lost upon him. That emptiness gets filled though, and given the pride of supposed intellect, they go for the surface appearance of intelligence. Seeking to appear wise in the eyes of the world, in other words. Scripture says such individuals become fools. Well, there you go. Jim Carrey. Christians, so-called and otherwise, recognize him for what he is. A fool in every sense of the word, from flailing around like a misfit medieval court jester to uttering shallow stupidities that he deems profound.
Someone like him that so dislikes our freedoms and politics should just go home to the socialism he loves, go home Jim, home to Canada.
Of the 40-odd movies that he has made, there are only two that I’d recommend for viewing (Truman Show, and Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind). The rest are all garbage with no real humor.
Vastly overrated as a comedic actor. No capacity for anything but sophomoric slapstick.
