Editorial Reviews

He's the star of the show--but he doesn't know. Jim Carrey wowed critics and audiences alike as unwitting Truman Burbank in this marvel of a movie from director Peter Weir (Witness, Dead Poets Society) about a man whose life is a nonstop TV show. Truman doesn't realize that his quaint hometown is a giant studio set run by a visionary producer/director/creator (Ed Harris), that folks living and working there are Hollywood actors, that even his incessantly bubbly wife is a contract player. Gradually, Truman gets wise. And what he does about his discovery will have you laughing, crying and cheering like few film stories ever have.

Carrey at his finest

ByO'Haraon November 15, 2016

Format: Amazon VideoVerified Purchase

Jim Carrey takes a step outta the comedic role to play in this dramatic piece about a child born into the spotlight of reality TV without knowing his life is being filmed.
His town and everything and everyone in it are not real. His friends are paid actors and his life is fabricated all to make the biggest television project the worlds ever seen.
But Carreys character soon finds he wants to leave the town and explore the world so the town has to convince him otherwise.
He's compelled to leave anyway possible.
The truth is forced out of the production company that's imprisoned him in the blissful town.

You are being watched.

Loved it. It's not perfect (You'd think if they spent so much effort into building Truman's cell, they'd put more effort into how elaborate every actor's day to day life was, as opposed to just recycling behaviors that seem super sketchy when repeated so frequently.), but whatever. I really enjoyed it. Got me thinking about moral standards.

Volume Not High Enough On Blu-ray Version

ByElaineon September 7, 2017

Format: Blu-rayVerified Purchase

Love the movie. The volume just isn't high enough when they talk low. No. I don't have hearing problems. :-) You have to strain to hear (even when the volume is turned all the way up). I put it on closed captioning for that reason. That is the only reason I'm giving it 3 stars. But hey, this IS NOT Amazon's fault. Anyway, the movie is really good. I have the Blu-ray version. Maybe the dvd version don't have this problem.

Surprisingly Sweet...and Dramatic...

ByPhilip Scholzon June 28, 2014

Format: DVDVerified Purchase

Who thought Jim Carrey could do drama. Well, he does it rather well here. You'd barely associate the man you see on your screen with the likes of Ace Ventura, Lloyd Christmas, or Stanley Ipkiss. Truman Burbank is sweet, charming, certainly naive, and unknowingly the world's biggest television star. This is one of those movie premises that you don't think will work, but it works in this film. The way this world was built around our leading man to keep him in the dark is conceivably possible, though one has to wonder how the guys behind all this got the money to create this world...it had to cost a few million, or even billion, dollars. I also thought the casting of Ed Harris as the head producer was a bit odd as it seemed to be a subdued role for him...I'm just used to seeing him in roles where he is able to let the whole room, and the audience, know that he is present and is to be respected accordingly. To get my point (hopefully I'm making one), watch Con Air. But Mr. Harris actually did well, even though I wanted him to be more in-everyone's-faces as in his other movies. But he didn't do badly. Overall, I liked this film and I'd watch again somewhere down the road. One nice thing that this movie doesn't do is give a predictably ending right from the first minute...you really can't figure out anything about the ending, so there is a sense of suspense, eve if there's not supposed to be. It's a good film and actually allows Jim Carrey to show some range in his acting ability...some range...there are still a few, probably unintentional, callbacks to the movies that made him a household name. But he did good and the movie was good. A solid four stars. Enjoy.

Outside the dome

ByBowser Jr.on November 22, 2016

Format: Amazon VideoVerified Purchase

I love this movie. It takes an interesting notion of a "virtual reality" and creates a plot that is funny and sad simultaneously. While it has undertones that are serious Jim Carrey is able to keep the over all feeling of a lighthearted comedy. I highly recommend this movie to anyone that is looking for something "outside the box" or in this case "outside the dome".

Excellent

ByNMCajunon December 4, 2016

Format: Amazon VideoVerified Purchase

A feel-good movie. Jim Carrey is excellent - as is Laura Linney, Ed Harris and Noah Emmerich. Interesting concept about the best layed plans of mice and men cannot control the truly human spirit.

One of Carrey's best performances. It also made me think that my life was a TV show for a while. However, I realized that would be a boring and terrible TV show...so...that's probably not the case.

There's a reason you heard so much about it

ByHyzenthlayon January 30, 2017

Format: Amazon VideoVerified Purchase

It had depth, made you think, and especially interesting since we have a reality show star as President. Before I get bashed, I'm a conservative. But I'm a Constitutional conservative. Truman didn't choose to be a reality show star. That's something to think about.
