Film Review of Me Myself Irene
Year: 2000 Reviewer: Chris Docker
Given the audience reaction, this is a love-it-or-hate-it movie (about ten people walked out, the rest, including me, howled and shrieked with laughter). Jim Carrey plays a State Trooper with multiple personality disorder. His one personality is a rough, aggressive person, releasing the pent-up feelings of the other personality, a kind, lovable door-mat character. Both of them fall in love with Irene, forming a love-triangle with only two people. The real treat of this movie is Jim Carrey, without whom it would be a fairly limp effort. Not Carrey as the comedian from his early movies, but an incredibly inventive performer - for the second half of the film most of the audience are riveted just to see what he will do next.
Rating: 6/10
