It misses perhaps as often as it hits, but Jim Carrey's manic bombast, Cameron Diaz' blowsy appeal, and the film's overall cartoony bombast keep The Mask afloat. Read critic reviews

Movie Info
When timid bank clerk Stanley Ipkiss (Jim Carrey) discovers a magical mask containing the spirit of the Norse god Loki, his entire life changes. While wearing the mask, Ipkiss becomes a supernatural playboy exuding charm and confidence which allows him to catch the eye of local nightclub singer Tina Carlyle (Cameron Diaz). Unfortunately, under the mask's influence, Ipkiss also robs a bank, which angers junior crime lord Dorian Tyrell (Peter Greene), whose goons get blamed for the heist.

Glued together by an outlandish yet revered performance from Jim Carrey, The Mask utilizes the best out of its playful & animated vibe to shroud away obvious hiccups and focus on the hysteria of its wild, green-faced titular craze. 4.4/5

This is the first time I have seen this movie. I enjoyed it, good CG effects, for its time, and it helped bring Jim Carrey to the forefront of comedy.

If you're in for cartoonish and manic humor from Jim Carrey I guess this is for you and family.

Jim Carrey is the key ingredient here and delivers a slapstick performance that captures the tone perfectly. The film might have been based on the comic, but it is not a loyal adaptation by any means. Diaz makes a welcome screen appearance and is far from the average newcomer you may have expected. The film is full of these moments and the film is better for it. Carrey deserved the success and the film is better for having him in the lead role. He is like a Robin Williams and the energy he delivers is ecstatic. The film might have aged, but it is still a lot of fun. 27/03/2019
