In director Chris Smith's "Jim & Andy: The Great Beyond," you're not only given a satisfying - if appropriately frustrating - look at the meta, mind-bending logic behind Jim Carrey's legendary performance as Andy Kaufman in Miloš Forman's "Man On The Moon," you're also delivered a suitable look at the genius, ahead-of-its-time antics implemented throughout the aforementioned comedian's tragically short career, effectively giving the world its first look at what would later be dubbed as "performance art.

" It truly is one of those labyrinthine documentaries that will get you thinking, theorizing, and hypothesizing about the many philosophical, ethical, and psychological questions layered throughout, even if some of them may not ever be truly answered.

In short, it is a fascinating doc indeed.
