Review

 

A new love. A new hometown. Peter Appleton is having the time of his life… by living someone else's life. Directed by Frank Darabont (The Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile), The Majestic is both a valentine to the movies and the story of one man's discovery of his own integrity.

Jim Carrey plays Peter, a Hollywood screenwriter who stumbles into tiny Lawson, California, with his memory blanked out by an auto accident. There, he's mistaken by the citizenry to be a long-lost war hero… an identity Peter also comes to believe while restoring the town's shuttered movie palace and romancing the girl (Laurie Holden) he supposedly left behind. It's the perfect life and, perhaps, the perfect lie. But the truth is bound to surface.

Before seeing this film I did not like Jim Carrey and would have had no intention of seeing it. I was of the opinion that he couldn't act and he only did silly wacky comedies like Ace Ventura and Liar Liar etc etc. However the high ratings and positive reviews made me think otherwise, as well as the name of the director Frank Darabont (director of The Shawshank Redemption and The Green Mile). I was glad i bought it as it proved that Jim Carrey can act in dramatic roles and in my opinion he should stick to them instead of wasting his acting talent in comedies. It was a good story and overall an enjoyable film, which i really liked.

Customer rating: 5 out of 5 stars Heart warming

A very litle known and under rated film. This film show cases Carrey's acting talent perfectly.
Gone is the manic comic, to be replaced by a thoughtful touching performance.
A truly lovely film.

Customer rating: 5 out of 5 stars The Majestic truely lives up to it's name
