Bruce Almighty

[sunshine]

I just watched it a few days ago, and I loved it! I wasn't expecting much, but was very pleased with the movie. It was funny, yet gave you something to think about. I thought it was so interesting how Bruce used his powers ultimately for himself, and then realized how much affect they had on the entire world. It made me realize that God does know best, and can't always just answer prayers with a simple email "yes"!

It is very, very, funny and I am a Jim Carrey fan!! Love everything he is in!!

As a comedy film, it was very good. Nice humor and Carrey stole the show as always.

From a Christian standpoint, it had a nice message. Nothing spectacular, but it had some very solid theology thoughout. I really liked the part about making someone love you without affecting their freewill.

Here is what I wrote about the movie on another message board:

Some people might not be pleased by the movie's contents, but if you just forget about the things that you might find offensive (like swearing and blasphemy), it is a pretty good movie. Some dull scenes, but very funny. I found the ending to be very moving, and it taught me a few things like praying for others and not blaming God for anything that goes wrong in my life (not that I blamed God for anything).

Synopsis: Jim Carrey stars as Bruce Nolan who is unsatisfied with his job and his life. He believes that God is intentionally making his life miserable and that he can do a better job of running the world. God shows him the error in his thinking by giving him powers.

I just read that there will be a sequel to this movie called "The Passion of the Ark"

[font=verdana, arial, helvetica]Sure, it's all rumor at this point, but still. This flick could be turned into a Bruce Almighty sequel, with Jim Carrey returning. The script started as an unrelated project, but Sony purchased it with hopes of redrafting it into the second Almighty. Early talks are under way. (Variety)[/font]

Apparently it's suppose to be a movie on a second flood. Should be interesting how this turns out.

I was skeptical about this movie at first, but after giving it a try I thought it was really entertaining and funny! It was a good movie and there were some touching moments for me. There were also some good messages

A fun movie.......

much better than it's predecessor , that old film "Oh God" with George Burns as God and a starring role for John Denver

 

[jidujiao]

I'll go against popular opinion, here. I didn't like it.

 

[mostly_harmless]

I liked it, made some important points in an accessible media and was funny at the same time. Jim Carrey has come a long way since those horrific ace ventura films

 

[StuckRags]

Skeptical at first. Was offended by the blasphemy. But what can you really expect from Hollywood? They did surprisingly well over all, considering.

The babbling scene was the funniest thing I had seen and have seen in a long time. We were watching it on DVD and had to stop the movie to regain our composure. Then we watched it again...hehe.

It's a good & funny movie & we all enjoyed it in our family esp. the MONKEY part !! Well, what will JIM CAREY come up with next ??? We will have to wait & see !!

 

[Sacrifice]

It was ok. I didn't see much christian reference in it to be honest. But Jim Carrey is hillarious.

 

[LoganTrussell]

Well I think the point of the film is to show God in a light sense. Meaning God jokes around sometimes, he's powerful be he probably does giggle at the human weird things we do.
