@@AlcyoneReacts the audiences at the time wanted Mask, Ace Ventura, In Living Color Jim. What they got was one of the first Awkward/Cringe dark comedies. Way ahead of its time…
I think thisis actually my favorite Jim Carrey movie, because Stalker stories and stalker movies scare the sh*t out of me and I am a fan of dark comedy
The Number 23 is a underrated jim carrey movie where hes serious. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is also a very good movie with Jim. There is also the Truman Show.
You are awesome for reacting to this. This film deserves waaaaaaay more attention than it receives. Directed by Stiller, starring Jim Carrey, and little sprinkles of Jack Black, Owen Wilson and Leslie Mann. Golden!
Although we don't learn the verdict in the film, the novelization strongly implies Sam Sweet was found guilty for the murder of his brother Stan. While the movie's final gross of just over $60 million domestically and $102 million worldwide was much less than the other Jim Carrey movies released in 1994 and late 1995, the movie cost $47 million to make and didn't use a major marketing campaign. The idea that the movie had been a disaster was widely circulated by rival studios and production companies because they were angry that Columbia set a higher market for star salaries by giving Carrey $20 million to star in it.
a few years after this movie came out he did the Truman show which was still kinda dark comedy but his role had more depth, then after that he did the Andy Kaufman biopic Man on the Moon. then his most well known dramatic role Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. I think there's a few others. Cable Guy is weird lol hard to categorize, not sure if i'd consider it his first dramatic role, but it let him explore his range and maybe helped him land those later more serious roles
I've seen The Truman Show but haven't seen Man on the Moon I'll def have to check it out also haven't seen Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. It's hard to think of Jim Carrey in a dramatic role
@@AlcyoneReacts Those of us who grew up with them felt the same about Robin Williams & Tom Hanks after seeing them on Happy Days/Mork & Mindy & Bossom Buddies respectively!😅 Still to this day as great as Hanks is, besides Forrest Gump is hard to not see old Hanks & still fuks his movies up for me at times. Carrey equals them both in his dramatic roles! ✌️🌎❤️
Finally got to watch. Great reaction, as usual! Saw another commentor talk about the tv trial, but failed to mention it was a spoof of the Menendez Brothers murder trial, which was a huge U.S. pop culture phenomenon. The "prototype" leading up to the O.J. Simpson murders/trial that would soon follow. Also, the movie "Midnight Express" referenced is a Classic but hardcore. Its based on a true story about an Amercan getting busted trying to smuggle hash out of Turkey & got busted & locked up in a Turkish prison. The guy's girlfriend visited him & pressed her breasts againt the glass!😅 See ya! ✌️🌎❤️
In my opinion this movie proves that Jim Carrey could play a fantastic Joker 🃏he is scary and funny at the same time and the cable guy thinks that life is just a joke or a movie
He would make an excellent Joker, I think I remember seeing pictures of him with orange hair and like a white and black onesie lol....nope nvm I just looked it up. It was green with black question marks lol he was the riddler
I have seen it, the only Jim Carrey movies that I had seen were the mask and the Ace Venturas but also forgot about the truman show I've seen that one too
here’s my problematic take, chip ISNT a lunatic he’s just very traumatized from being raised by television so everything he sees from toxic friendships/relationships, murder, etc he thinks is in some sense acceptable
This movie ALWAYS gets crapped on or forgotten, although my friends and i always considered this one of his best.
Why would anyone crap on this?? It's hilarious and dark and weird and whacky I mean what else could you want??

I've seen The Truman Show but not the others, I kinda thought The Number 23 was John Cusack for some reason but I'll check them out

And Matthew Broderick, I guess.. 😉
And I am 100% not joking, my sister gave me that Kramer shirt for Christmas this year.
My sisters gave me mine too! lol
I think it's actually the only time Jim Carrey & Jack Black were in a movie together.
Wild.
Great Reaction.
Thanks so much!!
Awe shit! Another one us old folk can enjoy with ya!😅
Appreciate it, bro!🙏
Have a Happy & Blessed New Year from Nashville!
See ya!
✌️🌎❤️
Happy New Year to you too!!
Great dark comedy. Pretty sad story actually.
You're one of a very few reactors who watched what I consider the best Jim Carrey character he's ever done.
Such a good one!
This movie even has Kyle Gass, Bob Odenkirk, and David Cross in bit roles.
They all go way back with Stiller.
Not sure who Kyle Gass is but totally didn't notice Bob Odenkirk or David Cross in there!
@@AlcyoneReacts Kyle Gass is the other half of Tenacious D with Jack Black.
@@tempsitch5632 ohh ok, never checked out their band

Thanks for it. Really good movie with a little horror fragments. 👍🎥
Don't know if you been told yet, but the movie came out in 1996, not 1999.
Thanks for the heads up 👍

🤣🤣Soo funny
here’s my problematic take, chip ISNT a lunatic he’s just very traumatized from being raised by television so everything he sees from toxic friendships/relationships, murder, etc he thinks is in some sense acceptable
I guess yeah if you grew up in TV land everything he did was pretty normal lol
