The Cable Guy (1996)
7/10
Jim Carrey delivers an outstanding performance
13 March 2006
i am a huge jim carrey fan, so any movie he is in I'm guaranteed to watch. this movie is by far one of my favourites. jim carrey passes of as a cable guy desperate for a friend who stalks a customer steve covacks (matthew broderick), who also plays a fine performance. this film uses dark comedy well, and as a fan of comedy film's this is one of my favourite dark films. jim carrey's neurotic character, with his lisp and need to hide his true identity under the false names of television characters is great. i love how he plays chip douglas, or whatever his real name is. if you love jim carrey, you will be surprised with the performance. it is unlike his others, he plays a dark stalker unlike the jolly crazy characters you usually see him play. if you love jim carrey, watch this film :).
