Thank
you very much!
Andy, Latka and Tony Clifton. Three ingredienses to guarantee
laughter. Add Jim Carrey and you got the fourth. Man on the Moon
is not an entirely comedy, as it tells the story of the late Andy
Kaufman. I had never heard of Andy Kaufman before, but I totally
enjoyed this movie anyway. In fact it increased my appetite for
more of the real Andy. Andy must have been one of the most
exentric persons ever. You never knew what he would do next either
on or off stage. Together with his friend and partner Bob they did
all sort of practical jokes constantly. They had the same type of
humor, and nobody
else shared it. Jim Carrey is fenomenal as Andy Kaufman. He should
have received an oscarnomination for best actor. All actors
involved are solid. One of the most hilarious moments in the film,
is the introduction of his alter ego Tony Clifton. WOW! What a guy.
He had me shaking with laughter. This must be the coolest guy on
the planet. Weeks after I saw the movie I was going around talking
like Tony Clifton. - Yeah, Yeah, Yeah. You got to hear him sing.
This guy is unbelieavable. Man on the Moon is in my opinion one of
the best movies of 1999, and each new film with Jim Carrey he
surprise me with his acting. Jim Carrey is going to win an oscar,
he can play anything. This is a movie to watch over and over again,
and particularly the scenes with Tony Clifton. The dvd has great
extrafeatures and even real footage of the real Andy. That is
great. The anamorphic transfer is very good, and the audio is ok.
This is not the type of film to show off your stereosystem with,
but the sound fills the room in some scenes - the wrestlingscenes
for instant. I have to recommend this to everyone, and thrust me
you will go around talking like Tony Clifton. Man on the Moon
deserves top score. 6.
EB.
