As entertainment, it gives good value: it's light, quick and diverting. Morgan Freeman, predictably, gives it heart, gravitas and the appearance of wisdom; but it's Carrey who keeps all the balls in the air with refined mania. January 9, 2018 | Full Review…

There are enough goofball touches in Bruce Almighty to carry the movie to a certain extent... However, when the time comes for Bruce to "share and learn", the effect is trite and embarrassing. January 3, 2018 | Full Review…

There's remarkably little done with a premise snatched from high-concept heaven, adding yet another file to the growing cabinet of under-realized comedies. July 29, 2008

Director Shadyac and his three scriptwriters prove much more fallibly flawed than their omnipotent hero. June 24, 2006 | Full Review…
Director Shadyac and his three scriptwriters prove much more fallibly flawed than their omnipotent hero.
This has some very funny moments and lines in its first act, and then jettisons the comedy in favour of a self-important deadly serious feelgood ending. July 8, 2003 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

What a disappointment.
While Carrey's antics are good for some laughs, the film ultimately falls apart, thanks to a heavy-handed screenplay with enough sugar and sweetness to induce a diabetic coma. November 15, 2019 | Full Review…

Although Carrey's built-in audience base will undoubtedly be thanking The Almighty this weekend for Bruce Almighty, with so many other films out there right now, this one can be put on the back burner. November 7, 2019 | Full Review…

Spiritual enlightenment is served as a side dish to the main course of orgasm and orifice jokes. Steve Carell gets the film's only good scene, easily You-Tubed, with an on-air gibberish seizure. June 24, 2019 | Rating: 1/5 | Full Review…

Ultimately, Bruce Almighty is an excuse for Jim Carrey to be crazy and zany. He puts on his comedy hat and has fun with the script. It's made for the Jim Carrey fan. September 21, 2010 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…
