Review of Me, Myself & Irene (2000) by Jason O — 09 Sep 2009

In "Me, Myself & Irene," Jim Carrey stars as a skitso cop who tags along with Irene (Renee Zellweger). Charley (Jim Carrey), a cool cop that patrols the roads of Rhoe Island, is having some problems with his wife after she meets a black midget that gets offended by Charley. Charley meets Irene at a station and plans to escort her to upstate New York as a prisoner. From there, everything breaks loose and both Charley and Irene go from one place to the other on a frantic mission to stay away from the police, because they're both wanted. Irene also finds out first-hand that Charley has a split personality that toggles between being Charley and being Hank (Jim Carrey), a crazy and obnoxious lunatic.

I didn't think "Me, Myself & Irene" was Jim Carrey's best comedy ever, but I did think it was one of his best and his best one since "Liar Liar." This movie is packed full of laughs with antics such as when Jim Carrey throws himself out of a car, or I should say Hank throws Charley out of a car. Jim Carrey definitely did one of his best acting jobs in "Me, Myself & Irene," he makes it seem like he really does have a split personality. Don't think that just because this is a comedy movie that it lacks in plot because it has a good plot that unfolds gradually.

If you like hilarious comedy movies or Jim Carrey movies, I definitely recommend getting "Me, Myself, & Irene." It's one of the funniest movies of the past year without a doubt! NOTE: That was my Amazon review from the year 2001. The part where Carrey replaces a baby to nurse on a woman's tetons is one of THE funniest movie scenes of all time.
