Bruce Almighty (2003)

Rating: PG-13
Genre: Comedy

Review
This provocative slam against pantheistic religions stars Jim Carey as a congenital liar who convinces God that he is the Lord's "dumber" brother. God decides to teach him a lesson by forcing Carey to become a local television anchorman. Carey is a riot, wearing both a hairnet and a small umbrella-hat variously throughout the film. Take a pass on the distasteful DVD extra outtakes though - especially one where the rubber-faced goblin simulates the act of physical love with a Wookie. Note to Hindus - It's all in fun!
