The Mask (New Line Platinum Series) description Sometimes it's hard to tell if The Mask (or Jim Carrey's in-your-face mugging in general) is actually funny, or just bizarre and grotesque. And sometimes it just doesn't matter. Carrey plays a shy, Jerry Lewis-like nerd who discovers an ancient mask that magically transforms him into a green-faced, zoot-suited Tex Avery cartoon character with no inhibitions. As Roger Ebert said of Carrey in Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, the actor performs "as if he's being clocked on an Energy-O-Meter, and paid by the calorie expended." If that's your kind of humor, you'll love The Mask; if not, you may need a valium or two to sit through this one. Digital video disc extras include two deleted scenes and a commentary track from director Charles Russell. --Jim Emerson |

| ♥♥♥♥♥ | Outstanding comedy! |
| Stanley Impkiss (Jim Carrey) was your basic bank clerk who is a nice guy but has some problems. He soon discovers a mysterious magical ancient mask by the beach as he later puts it on and changes him into a crazy green-faced cartoony being called The Mask. He does weird and amusing things as he fights crime and make people laugh including the power to romance a sexy nightclub dancer named Tina (Cameron Diaz), but mob boss Dorian Tyrell (Peter Greene) wants him dead.
Hilarious and creative fantasy-comedy inspired by a Dark Horse Comic book ! while the original comic books were dark and violent, the filmmakers like Chuck Russell (Who did "Nightmare on Elm Street 3" and the 1988 "Blob") had to made it a little light hearted for the screen yet it worked like a charm. Cameron Diaz makes her debut in this film and made alot of men's mouths drop like the character in this picture, i like how this movie uses amazing special effects by Industrial Light and Magic to make the bizarre cartoony character's special powers and Tex Avery-esque gags come to life on the screen. Jim Carrey's physical comedy also provides good laughs as always, the film become a suprise box-office hit and one of the best comedies of the 90's! It's a must watch for the whole family. This DVD contains good picture and sound with some very good extras like Audio commentary, deleted scenes, Cameron Diaz screen test, three featurettes, and the trailer to this and other trailers from New Line Cinema. Also recommended: "Hellboy", "Sin City", "Superman 1 & 2", "Spider-Man Trilogy", "Batman Begins", "Who Framed Roger Rabbit", "Ichi The Killer", "Dick Tracy", "Kung-Fu Hustle", "Batman (1989)", "Batman Returns", "Beetlejuice", "Drop Dead Fred", "DarkMan", "Superman Returns", "Hulk", "The Incredibles", "Young Frankenstein", "Hot Shots!", "The Crow". |
