Review of The Cable Guy (1996) by Peter Stack for San Francisco Chronicle — 17 Jun 2002
The Cable Guy doesn't know when to pull the plug. Much of the film plays like a personal boob tube with Carrey trapped inside, determined to act his way out in a mugging freak show. He's a disturbing mixture of psychopath and pathetically misguided lonely soul.
