A nice movie, except for the gay scenes, I'm not really looking forward to that, but all in all, it's entertaining.

Nice movie with a good story.
Jim Carrey went to great lengths for this role, he lost 16 kg and it shows. He also went quite far as a straight actor in some of the gay scenes. A role that both actors manage to portray believably.
The combination of humor and drama was nicely dosed and I thoroughly enjoyed myself throughout the film.
3.5 stars

Reasonable film about a cop who changes his life after a car accident. A good story and the film also has a promising introduction. The romantic aspect takes the momentum out of the film and is simply less captivating than the main character's scams. Jim Carrey is well cast. A small 3.0 stars.
