About this product

Product Information

Comic actor Jim Carrey plays it (mostly) straight for this smart satire from director Peter Weir (DEAD POETS SOCIETY). The life of Truman Burbank (Carrey) has been broadcast around the world with tremendous success since the day he was born. A star for the mere fact that he exists, Truman has no idea that there are cameras in every corner of his world. But soon, cracks begin to show in the constructed world, and Truman questions his existence while everyone around him is in on the joke. Weir directs a fine cast, including Laura Linney as Truman's wife and Ed Harris as the show's director. Screenwriter Andrew Niccol also added interesting twists to the scripts for S1M0NE and GATTACA.

    Pleasantly Surprised

    Excellent movie, a very enjoyable time. What adds to the charm is the fact that my copy is an original DVD from when DVDs were first becoming big. It adds a lot of fun value to the whole exerience.

  • Top critical review

    Not as good as I was hoping, but a lot of people enjoy it so maybe you will too.

    With all the rave reviews I had heard/ read of this I expected a lot more than was delivered. Maybe I just didn't get it. It played a little boring to me. I have only watched it once though. It is definitely interesting and brings up interesting issues but I guess I wanted a happier story or something with more redemption.

  • REALITY CHECK- WHATS REAL AND WHAT ISN'T

    Features Actors: Jim Carrey, Laura Linney & Ed Harris Running Time: 102 min. Rating:PG Truman Burbank (Jim Carrey) is a young man in the quaint community of Seahaven, a little island, leading a regular life as an insurance salesman with his wife Meryl (Laura Linney). What he doesn't know is that all the world is actually watching his life. Unknowingly, Truman is at the center of a huge TV show that started with his birth. Ever since that day "The Truman Show" has become the most successful TV show on the planet, airing in all countries around the globe. His entire life is a travesty, a conglomerate of actors pretending to be relatives, friends and partners. Even his wife is a paid actress on her daily job. His entire world is in fact a giant soundstage with ...

  • A funny, engaging story that provokes you to think

    I loved this movie since the first time I saw. If it's a Jim Carrey movie, then most likely it's funny, and this movie was. However, it did not stop there. This movie is a thought-provoking look at how often we can be trapped in a world in which we let ourselves be controlled by others, yet we are the main protagonist in our story, and we should live up to it! Jim Carrey, as Truman, showed us that the was willing to fight to realize his dreams, despite all the obstacles he faced. He decided to control his own life, and not stay in a world in which he wasn't really happy. I think that it's a great watch and I recommend it. That's why I decided to buy it.

  • Fabulous movie!

    This is a fabulous movie. Very interesting take on how the media can control lives.
