Movie Info

Six years after Dumb and Dumber, Jim Carrey reunited with Peter Farrelly and Bobby Farrelly for this anarchic comedy with a hint of romance. Charlie (Carrey) is a good-natured Rhode Island state trooper who likes helping people. But years of internalizing his frustrations about his work and his family have caused Charlie to develop an alter ego: Hank, an abusive, violent, sexually compulsive police officer. Charlie can keep Hank at bay with medication, but just barely. When Irene (Renee

Somewhat less than the sum of its parts, Me, Myself & Irene is overlong and choppy.

The big shock here is how flagrantly unoriginal the movie is.

The Farrellys strike again; avoid this awful film.

While the film does deliver enough laughs to merit a recommendation, it is a letdown given the caliber of the comic minds involved.

Able-minded kids of all ages know that drooling at the dinner table can be an act of defiance.

Consistently filthy and funny, with the Farrellys' usual attention to disability that will surely be misread as insensitivity to disability.

Involves a knock-down, drag-out fight between the two personalities. It's like watching Jerry Lewis and Buster Keaton duke it out while inhabiting the same body.

[Zellweger] shares nearly all her scenes with Carrey and doesn't get gobbled up by him. She's a lovely comic foil, a straight man that can take any number of hits.

Neither Carrey nor the Farrellys are in top form here.

An endless, overlong parade of horribly unfunny jokes.

Me, Myself & Irene suffers its own identity crisis, as it lacks purpose, restraint and overall self-respect.

You might need an alter ego to dig this one.

Although the actress has brought a natural humor to her appealing dramatic roles, Zellweger is a bit grating here as she tries too overtly to force the laughs.

The cinematic equivalent of a painful paper cut.

It's a great showcase of flexibility and split-second role-shifting, but none of it is terribly funny.

Audience Reviews for Me, Myself & Irene

Ace Ventura, The Mask, Dumb and Dumber. All the comedies with Jim pre to Me, Myself and Irene, were all masterpieces. This was unexpectedly crude and certainly not the best but it was also Jim's best physical performance in terms of his reputation as being "the man of a thousand faces".

Finally, after 3 attempts at watching this film I made it to the end. It wasn't worth it, in fact I feel angry at about the time I wasted. It's not in my top 10 worst films of all time but it's definitely in the teens. Very much not my kind of film.
