Man On The Moon (2000)

Jim Carrey is excellent as Andy Kaufman. This reviewer watched the first half (which was not convincingly setup after the very funny intro / title sequence) making believe it was a psychological thriller to keep entertained. The second half which is much better, almost makes the film a total success. Still, Carrey’s portrayal was slightly disturbing. Kauffman comes off as a bipolar, OCD, control freak which is hard to shake off and makes the entire movie difficult to comfortably enjoy. Or maybe that was part of the point?
