What are your thoughts on this film? I had recently watched this for the first time in many years. I really don't remember the last time I had watched it in its entirety, even though I had caught parts of it on TV here and there. I remember thinking that it was hilarious and it still holds up. I remember that this was also around the time when Jim Carrey wanted to do more serious roles as he had done this after The Truman Show and Man on the Moon, and then with this he reverted back to the goofy persona he had. Of course, he was a riot in this film whether it was playing the nice and gentle Charlie and also the aggressive Hank. I just love the scene when he transformed into Hank and taking all of his repressed rage out on people.
What did you think of this film?

I loved it. So many great moments big and small.
Like Hank's showing those guys his fist, and he closes his fingers around his thumb.

The woman breast feeding scene still has me howling with laughter. Add to the fact that Jim hammed it up completely in that moment makes me laugh uncontrollably.

Didn't like it. It felt like the worst parts of Carrey's mugging and stupidity with none of the charm of his 90s flicks

It was Jim hamming it up as much as possible but it was too funny

The diner scene kills me. Me and my buddy quote it constantly. When he goes, "How's it hangin', fellas?" to those two women. And when he verbally abuses the albino. So wrong. So SO funny.

Didn't care for it. But went to see it because the wife loves Jim Carrey.

It's hilarious. And Jim Carrey isn't even the funniest thing about it. His sons are the best thing about it.

Dumb. The Farelly bros fell so far after Something About Mary. It's sad.
