Jim Carrey and his ridiculously stupid antics are always sure to make you laugh. One can never go wrong with any of his movies. Fletcher Reede (Carrey) is a high-profile lawyer and is a divorced man. His son, Max (Cooper) is very fond of his father just as Fletcher is fond of him. Fletcher is too tied up with work and with other priorities to give enough time to his son. Time and again he has made promises that he was never able to fulfill. When Fletcher fails to turn up for Max's birthday, Max makes a birthday wish that his father could never be able to lie just for one day. Fletcher has got a new high-profile client in a divorce case and realises that he needs to lie to win the case. With the case on his head and the wish coming true, Fletcher realises that he is in for a very bad day. Slap-stick stupidity can only be carried off by Jim Carrey in a hilarious manner. He is the love it or hate it kinds and there is no third way about him. The extra-zealous acting and the over-enthusiastic performances are all part of the larger package. The movie is just something to watch, laugh and then forget about it.

Thumbs up: Jim Carrey comedy at its best
