Rating:  - Worth Seeing
This is not a classic and it is not realistic, but it is fun and there are parts that are great. I love Leoni and Carey together. The best is when he loses his job, he tries to turn to stealing as a means to pay for his bills. It it what it is - a great way to spend and hour and 1/2.
Rating:  - Best Jim Carrey movie ever!
It's a remake of the 1970's movie but Jim Carrey makes it all better. I only can say I strongly recommend this film.
Rating: - fun for all carrey fans!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this is not one of jim carrey`s best...but its enjoable since carrey is not doing many comedies after bruce almighty.....it has some very funny scenes and garanteed fun!!!
Rating:  - Amusing, not great but enjoyable
If a remake was to be done I would haveliked to see more changes. Except for the corrupt business executive plot, the film is very much like the original. There are no big laughs but it isn't long and it's okay to pass the time with. I found the original a bit better although it was not the best Seagal nor Fonda comedy. I can see this movie as an episode of a current sitcom as the characters are not well formed. In fact it may make a better tv sitcom since tv emphasizes characterization.
Rating: - Dot Coms Spoof
Jim Carrey and Tea Leoni play Dick and Jane. When Dick gets promoted to a VP for Telecommunications he tells his wife to quit her job, which she does. But his timing is bad as his company is found to be out of money because of the President of the company selling all his shares, and the stock tanks. Dick along with the rest the company find themselve unemployed without severence or pensions. Dick and Jane try to manage the best they can at first, but once all the household items are repossessed they decide it is time to make crime pay. They start small with a quicky shop hold up but soon they are tackling banks and anything else. Once they have all their possessions back and things look up it becomes a question of how to get even with the President of his former company and help the employees. A running joke throughout the movie has one of his co-workers always missing out as Dick benefits. Fairly amusing movie but not quite on the scale of some of Carrey's other works. I still highly recommend it for at least a rental.
