Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
A delirious comedy that remains on track largely thanks to Jim Carrey's goofy but grounded performance.
– Colin Covert,
Minneapolis Star Tribune,

fresh:
Yes, some familiar Carrey tactics are on display, but the star's performance has real heart - it's easily the best thing he has done since Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.
– Steven Rea,

rotten:
[The] elaborate cons may be fascinating, daring stuff, but the heart of the picture is the romantic relationship, which is squeezed out to the edges.

rotten:
Russell was a fascinating character and a real puzzle box; but the filmmakers have turned his life into a broad farce with one wocka-wocka gag after another.

This is the most interesting role Carrey has had in a long while.
