The Truman Show (1998)

With the reality TV boom, it brings forth more thoughts as to whether our society could ever be this extreme, and with each viewing, its themes deepen.

The intimations of profundity, of reality perceived, mediated, and processed, are milked for heavy irony rather than enlarging complexit.

[A] hugely entertaining dramatization of Plato's "Allegory of the Cave"...a fable that would be relevant 50 years earlier and no doubt will remain relevant 50 years hence.

Jim Carrey gets in touch with his Jimmy Stewart side. There's a humanity here... that we haven't seen before.

A brilliant flick with a remarkable performance by Carrey coupled to a fascinating story, a first-class cast and top-notch technical credits.

This is clearly one of the decade's cleverest, most original pictures.

Truman has been wronged, and it is thrilling to see him strive to escape a machine built by a compassionless and egomaniacal creator.

If you expect and want to see the hyper-wacky Carrey...you'll hate it. If you expect and don't want to see the creepy Carrey as in the The Cable Guy, you'll be happier.

Las secuencias de sincronía de eventos para que Truman crea todo son perfectas.
