Sometimes it's hard to tell if The Mask (or Jim Carrey's in-your-face mugging in general) is actually funny, or just bizarre and grotesque. And sometimes it just doesn't matter. Carrey plays a shy, Jerry Lewis-like nerd who discovers an ancient mask that magically transforms him into a green-faced, zoot-suited Tex Avery cartoon character with no inhibitions. As Roger Ebert said of Carrey in Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, the actor performs "as if he's being clocked on an Energy-O-Meter, and paid by the calorie expended." If that's your kind of humor, you'll love The Mask; if not, you may need a valium or two to sit through this one. --Jim Emerson

 The Mask January 8, 2010
Arnita D. Brown (USA)
After discovering an ancient mask with strange powers, a timid bank clerk is instantly transformed into an indestructible superhero, able to fulfill his innermost desires and whims. This movie is one hilarious action romance comedy that will give you hour of fun. Jim Carrey is made for this movie, very, very talented actor. This movie is simply outstanding. Pure enjoyment.
S-S-S-S-MMMMMMMMMMOOOOOOOOOOKKKKKKIN' HOT FUN. November 8, 2009
HAMLET
One of Jim Carrey's early movies, and the one that catapaulted him to stardom, is S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-S-SMMMMMMMMMMMMMOOOKIN' HOT FUN. Carrey is absolute L-M-F-A-O. Cameron Diaz, in her first film, is a visual treat and perfect as Tina, the woman who may not be what she initially seems to be. Amy Yasbeck, an over-the-top Marian in the Robin Hood parody "Robin Hood: Men In Tights," is mysterious and also may not seem to be who she initially appears to be. Peter Riegert, a nut case in "National Lampoon's Animal House," is devious as the nasty Dorian. One of my favourite moments is-SPOILER-when The Mask is dancing at the "Coco Bongo." I especially loved Lt. Kallaway and Doyle, specifically during the park scene and the swingin' aftermath. Hilarious, and semi-serious, from start to finish. The special features are somewhat disappointing, as there's no director commentary for the deleted scenes, which I think should have been kept in the movie. Also, the picture quality of the deleted scenes wasn't very good. I highly recommend the movie. If you like Jim Carrey or Cameron Diaz, you'll LLLLOOOOOOOOOVVVVVVEEEEEEEEE
THIS MOVIE. Grooovvvvvvvvvy, baby. Rated PG-13, but should have been rated PG.
 Do not buy this expensive upscaled DVD October 22, 2009

I'm going to be quick and direct with this review by saying:
You are not getting anything more from this Blu-Ray edition than from buying the much cheaper DVD version. The video in this product is simply upscaled from the DVD and is not actually remastered.
Do not experience the loss of money lost by people who have been scammed by these liars who release The Mask and Terminator movies on Blu-Ray which are not actually in high definition as one would believe.
Delightful Comedy October 9, 2009

I've seen this hilarious, inventive, fast, crazy, and delightful comedy many times and it never bores me. It makes my eyes pop up and my jaw drop down not unlike Jim Carrey's Mask persona in one of the film's many incredible scenes. This is the perfect movie for Jim Carrey's talents in physical comedy. He sure had a lot of fun and improvised in many scenes doing the parodies and paying the homage to the famous movies and characters in recognizable and hilarious way. The movie made me laugh all the time; it is a perfect fun for the whole family which does not happen too often. All supporting players made the film even more enjoyable but one actor who did impossible and almost stole the central spot from Carrey was the dog, the Jack Russell Milo. What a great performance! If they ever gave the Oscars for the best animal performance, Milo would be the one to receive it. The Mask also marked the film debut for an ex- model, 22 years old Cameron Diaz, and I believe that it was one of the most stunning debuts ever. The moment, she stepped in Stanley Ipcus's (Jim Carrey) bank and his life, the new star was born. I've never seen her as beautiful as in her first movie, and her dance with Carrey at the night club has proved that she could keep up with the most amazing physical comedian of our time. Great fun. Oh yes - how could I forget the Oscar nominated special effects that made Carrey's transformations from a shy clerk to a superhero absolutely amazing. I think that this comedy is timeless and it would delight the viewers of all ages for many years.
