Yea looks good.
Better yet to see Jim Carrey breaking out of his traditional comedy roles.
If ya think about it, Jim is perfect for the part, especially when the guy starts goin' wacko.

If you want to see Carrey do well in a non comedy role, check out Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind if you haven't seen it. I originally discounted this movie myself because I could deduce the entire plot from the teaser trailer. When I watched it I realized the progression of events was inconsequential to the point of the movie, and it doesn't matter if you "figure it out".

Carrey does really well here in a difficult role. This is not a strong protagonist who you identify with enthusiastically - he's unsure of himself, flawed, often wrong. Winslet as well does a fantastic job. Not an easy movie, because nobody "wins", neither character is in control of their lives, in other words pretty much like life. But if you can stand an adult script about real situations people face with a single fantasy "what if" thrown in the mix, it's gold.

I liked that one too Rem, I don't think any of my freidns really did. I also started digging Kate Winslet in that movie too.

he was pretty good in the majestic too, another non comedic role.
