Bruce Almighty (2003)

Bruce Almighty (2003, USA) C-101m. ** D: Tom Shadyac. Starring Jim Carrey, Morgan Freeman, Jennifer Aniston, Philip Baker Hall, Catherine Bell, Lisa Ann Walter, Steven Carell, Nora Dunn, Sally Kirkland, Tony Bennett. Typical Carrey comedy features him as a newscaster whose life is going down the drain. Just when he is about to throw it all away, God (Freeman) approaches him and gives him the gift of changing and influencing everything apart from the human will. Will he use it for his own purposes or to help others? Preposterous in the first half, improves later, but is no more than a recycled Hollywood concoction. Carrey's fans should get what they expect.
