For
the word incredible to exist anywhere in the title of this alleged film is, in
itself, incredible as it bears no indication of the contents. Apparently
the word or designation comedy now covers a wide spectrum of concepts including
those containing no humor at all. Steve Carrell jumps the shark on a
rocket propelled bike in this mess of a movie which is neither funny,
endearing, or interesting in the least. In addition, does anyone still find
Jim Carrey relevant or entertaining anymore, if so, you definitively need to carefully
review your viewing habits. This failed tale of dueling illusionists is
directed by Don Scardino who, if you have never heard of before, you are in
good company, and based on this cinematic disaster it may be the last time you
hear of him at all. What has happened to Hollywood? Is there a
writer's strike ongoing that I am unaware of.
Maybe Tinseltown has developed an allergy to actually making money. Or could it be some sort of tax shelter
thing. Either way it is becoming more and more apparent that the ideas
of originality, creativity, and quality are utterly ignored, even outdated among
the over paid and out of touch executives in Callyland. 0 out of 5
Kernels: the only real magic that would have impressed me is if this movie had disappeared.
