Jim Carrey's Bruce Almighty is one of my favorite comedies. It is not too exaggerated to the point where it feels uncomfortable, does not contain too many sexual jokes, and the casts are good.
Summary : The main character Bruce is an ordinary reporter who wants to become a next anchor. However, when his dream is stopped by his rival Evan Baxter, he loses control and makes a huge live television disaster. Therefore, Bruce gets fired and becomes twisted. One day Bruce goes to a place where there might be a job opportunity and meets a man who calls himself God. When Bruce leaves the building, he becomes Bruce Almighty.
The movie shows amusing incidents that Bruce goes through while performing his power as a God. My favorite scene is him playing "Moses of tomato soup". The film is a very funny classic comedy that is easy and light to watch. However, if there is a message that might make the audience think is the fact that God cannot meddle with the free wills of people in the movie. The limitation is also the cause of Bruce's first misery after becoming almighty. Bruce Almighty is a funny, not too flippant movie, making it a decent one to watch.
