The story seems to have been written for children, but the impressive amount of dirty jokes and embarrassing situations that the film throws in our faces illustrates that it is deliberately intended for an adult audience. And sadly not the most intelligent audience.

This movie is a rollercoaster and Jim Carrey is in charge of it. It seems like he is doing is best to keep us entertained but wow, the rest of the cast, the story, the environment, the level of jokes are just insufficient. Carrey certainly oozes this insane energy but it contributes to make him seem totally out of the plot. Like an idiot in the middle of a regular village.

If the beginning of the story is particularly childish, the rest of it totally falls apart loudly, becomes as confusing as it needs to be for Jim Carrey to deliver his pathetic jokes and impressive facial mimics. It definitely seems like this movie is a desperate way to showcase his abilities out of any context.
