Bruce Almighty Ratings & Reviews
- DdoughnutJune 3, 2025One of the funniest movies I have ever seen. Bruce messing up Evan's performance was amazing
- wf625June 30, 2025This movie is so Funny! 4 stars! Go watch it!
- ርልዪረFebruary 13, 2025Like a few of the reviewers of this film, I must confess, I never have been a fan or particularly keen on films starring Jim Carrey. However, in this particular instance, I am more than happy to make this the exception to the rule and to give credit where credit is due, Jim Carrey's inimitable, zany, OTT style is exactly what makes this film eminently watchable. Personally, I think JC's performance and portrayal of the character Bruce Nolan is superb, quite exceptional and outstanding - he simply excels. The character is played with such enthusiasm and zest, you cannot but help become quickly immersed and absorbed in the storyline, no matter how "outlandish", at first, it may appear. Underpinning the wonderful humour and amazing visual comedy is a nice, touching and moral storyline. The film, like Jim Carrey's style, is fast-paced but gently slows during the more touching and thoughtful moments. This film cannot fail to amuse from the outset and by the end would [well it should] have uplifted and touched you on a few levels but do not want to disclose any of the content for fear of spoiling it for any other potential viewers. This is a role where JC truly excels himself but this review would not be complete without acknowledging the supporting roles portrayed by Morgan Freeman, Jennifer Aniston certainly, in their respective roles, equal to that of Jim Carrey's performance and also, in his own way, Steve Carrell. I guess the moral of the story is that `the grass is not always greener on the other side', and what we consider important, is not necessarily the case but it is a real cool, best of fun, barrel of laughs, roller-coaster of a ride, learning that. I could write at greater length but will refrain from doing so because, as stated previously, do not want to disclose any content to spoil it for anyone else considering watching. Laugh? It had been quite a while since I had so thoroughly enjoyed such natural, side-splitting, belly-aching, exuberant and frequent outbursts of laughter and mirth such as those experienced while watching `Bruce Almighty' and whenever I watch it again, it never fails to amuse, delight and uplift. This film most definitely has the `Feel Good Factor', in bundles. . . . Is this a good film - No, it's good, GOOD! Watch it you'll see. It is indeed, B E A UUUUUTIFUL! As an afterthought having, now, watched this, maybe, just maybe, I will reconsider my opinion of Jim Carrey, give him the benefit of the doubt and might well watch some of his other movies.
- matpe23August 19, 2025Not everyone likes comedy or Jim Carrey but apart from subjectivity this is fantastic. Funny, great message, good chemistry between the actors, never boring. Just a cool movie.
- Ronnie BocksOctober 10, 2025This is honestly a really great movie. Jim Carrey is right in his element here, and I find myself laughing very often when watching the film. The only reason it’s 4.5 stars is because social norms have changed pretty significantly since 2000- something and some things are less acceptable today.
- Karin e BorisOctober 5, 2025But how good is Jim Carrey? 😍
- MikeyGee-10September 9, 2025Funny watch
- ArnioxDecember 15, 2024Good over all comedy
