Browser’s Magnificent Seven

The Mask 8.15pm beIN Movies Comedy

A MAGICAL mask transforms a downtrodden bank clerk into a superhero. This high voltage parable confirmed Jim Carrey as America’s top movie comedian.

Carrey’s electric grin and personal dynamism combine with state-of-the-art special effects to produce action sequences calculated to knock your socks off.

As a superhero, Stanley Ipkiss is not a goody-goody. He robs his own bank and attacks garage mechanics who have been stiffing him for years over repairs to his beatup old car.

The ancient mask has released Stanley’s inner self but he eventually realises his new powers should be used for good, as well as having fun. He confronts mobster boss Dorian, alias Peter Greene and sweeps gangster’s moll, glamorous Cameron Diaz literally off her feet.

Based on a superhero from Marvel Comics, director Charles Russell’s movie in 1994 is also a conscious tribute to the golden age of Hollywood cartoons. Manic echoes abound of womanising skunk Pepe Le Pew, Bugs Bunny and other old favourites.

Radio Times gave it the maximum five stars: “An excuse for Carrey to move with whirlwind speed, pop his eyeballs and swap parts of his anatomy for the cartoon equivalents in hysterically funny and tremendously imaginative ways.”
