    • Josh Rosenblatt

      Schumacher is as much to blame for this mess as Carrey is. Over and over again, he mistakes looming shadows and manic outbursts for tension, and his ponderous, ham fisted directorial style creates more questions than it answers. ( Read More )
    • Brian Rentschler

      His directing style in this movie is uneven; some parts are hokey and overblown, while others seem to be just right. ( Read More )
    • Jim Lane

      Despite what that synopsis may suggest, and despite the presence of Carrey, Fernley Phillips script isnt a comedybut it is (not to put too fine an edge on it) a silly ass crock, riddled with cavernous plot holes and filled to overflowing with howlers (that authors name, for example) and eye rolling coincidences.

    • Matthew Turner

      Carreys deadpan delivery during the Suicide Blonde scene (Ill be honest, I didnt get it) provides the films only laughs and its a shame this tongue in cheek approach didnt extend to the rest of the movie.The films biggest problem is that its never really tense or scary enough and the sight of Walter repeatedly discovering the presence of the number 23 just gets more and more tedious.

    • Jeffrey M. Anderson

      Worse, the twists dont really make much sense in terms of setup and payoff. ( Read More )
