Jim Carrey is a comic genius. But this film wastes his enormous talent in a straight role that any competent actor could have done equally well. The Majestic is a big, sloppy Valentine to small-town America, the magic of movies, the importance of integrity and patriotism, blah blah blah, zzzzz. I actually dozed off a couple of times while watching.
(Note to Jim Carrey: you're a good actor and all, but could you please go back to the funny faces and slapstick...pretty please?)
