Bruce Almighty
{5/5} “And that’s the way the cookie crumbles.”
Bruce Almighty, released in 2003
Bruce was a reporter who went on a rant on live TV and lost his job. He also gets beat up by some thugs and crashes his car. And his dog keeps peeing in the apartment. When he gets a call from a mysterious number, he goes to a warehouse where he meets God. God has decided to go on a vacation, and he wants Bruce to fill in for him.
Jim Carrey is hilarious in this movie, and no one could play God better than Morgan Freeman.
It’s about doing things for yourself, and doing things for other people.
There are very funny outtakes during the credits.
Tony Bennett makes a brief but nice appearance. Max Grodénchik also has a small part.
Stars Jennifer Aniston, Steve Carell, Catherine Bell, and Philip Baker Hall. Directed by Tom Shadyac (Liar Liar). The playful music is by John Debney.
This is the 3rd or 4th time I’ve seen it.
