Über diesen Film

When he dons an ancient Norse mask, perennial looser Stanley Ipkiss moves at warp speed, knows people's every desire and can satisfy every whim, and dances like Fred Astaire, Barishnikov and Gumby combined. He's s-s-s-smokin'! Golden Globe-winner Jim Carrey ("Yes Man," "The Number 23") and Golden Globe-nominee Cameron Diaz ("There's Something About Mary," "Charlie's Angels") star in this story of a sweet, socially inept bank teller who discovers a magical mask that brings his innermost desires to screaming life, and transforms him into a superhero -- but one whom you may not want to call for help. Nominated for an Academy Award for Best Visual Effects, Jim Carrey was also nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Actor for his performance in this blockbuster, which grossed more than $119 million domestically, and $344 million worldwide!

Very different from the comic, Jim Carrey gives a zany performance that isn't likely to be forgotten. If you haven't read the original comic, Ipkiss is a bad guy with a magical mask he bought from a pawn shop and doesn't last very long, but this isn't the movie. The creators skipped past the first page to the second and said that's our hero and skipped pages until they found something crazy to see the mask do. Still a good movie though.

This movie is smart,clever,and very very funny the special effects aren't that bad I mean its cartoon style but its not too cartoonish so who ever did the CGI in this movie great job and Jim carry is fantastic in this film I mean fantastic this is one if the best movies of the 1990's so yeah its one of Jim carry's best performances and this film just told me that Jim carry is a good actor I mean he did some wonderful performances such as the Grinch movie(2000) so yeah its funny

Genuine comedy. Great cast, nonstop laughter. Classic, gotta have this movie in your collection. I believe this was the first Jim Carey movie I was allowed to watch. Loved the dancing moves. Cameron Diaz is so young, flawless, and beautiful. She still is but she looked incredibly natural in this movie. Loved it then an now. Highly dislike the sequel
