This movie gets a lot of flack, but it's a hidden piece of comedic gold. It's sadistically dark and twisted, and in my opinion offers one of Jim Carrey's best performances as the creepy impedimented bipolar super best friend. The script ain't that great. That's why it's amazing to see what Carrey does. I've got to say half of the disease of the film is Matthew Broderick's half interested performance -- kind of part Demorall daze/part Leave it to Beaver "Gee whiz! That's dangerous!" But Jack Black? Ben Stiller? Owen Wilson? Janeane Garofalo? This movie just doesn't get the credit it deserves. Definitely worth at least a look and an open mind.
