I Love You Phillip Morris

La vivacité et la rapidité de la narration, ainsi que les bonnes performances des acteurs, sont divertissantes, mais dans le dernier quart, les arrestations répétées, les emprisonnements et les évasions deviennent ennuyeuses avec leur répétitivité, et dans l'ensemble, le film semble beaucoup plus long qu'il ne l'est. Il y a surtout un florilège de scènes comiques ou de romantisme kitsch entre les personnages homosexuels, notamment dans la première moitié, et que Carrey et McGregor jouent de manière bizarre, mais on s'y habitue.

I didn't decide on the fourth star until the last 10 minutes. And that's because of the "clever" ending. Unfortunately, I didn't feel any love or much drama from the film. That's why I’m rating the film purely as a slightly above average comedy that isn't a complete cliché. A bit disappointing, 3.5 stars. (11/06/2011)

This movie would work even if it weren’t about fairies... twists, emotions milked by the pint, suspense, it’s all here. Carrey and McGregor give some of the best acting performances I have seen with them, I even had trouble laughing when Morris was crying about... well, if you’ve seen it, you know what. For slight inconsistency, just four stars. I enjoyed myself more than I expected. (18/06/2010)

An incredible hit even after all these years. The pairing of Jim Carrey and Ewan McGregor is excellent because together they are sweet, touching, and funny. Carrey took his acting a level higher with this film after two decades at the top. The wild cadence of jokes, crazy situations - everything runs like clockwork. (13/11/2012)

Well, that was something. The first film starring Jim Carrey and Ewan McGregor that neither could save with their presence. Awful. (05/07/2012)

I was quite looking forward to seeing I Love You Phillip Morris, but after watching it I have to say that I could have done without this film. I kind of don't know what my overall impression should be. I was very entertained in places, moved a few times, but in the end it all kind of evaporated like steam over a pot. Ewan McGregor was really great, I trusted his role 100%, but Jim Carrey often irritated me a lot with his efforts to play a convincing gay man (he was really annoying). The story wasn't bad in itself, but the plot kept kind of cycling, so by the end I was getting a bit bored. All in all (for me) a mediocre film that almost failed to impress me (except for Ewan) with anything enough to consider a higher rating. (25/06/2013)

Un film frais emmené par l’excellent Jim Carrey qui n’a rien à voir avc l’industrie du tabac. :-) (05/04/2010)

Two gays, one played by Jim Carrey and the other played by Ewan McGregor, additionally based on a true story. It wasn't as hilariously funny as I thought, but I definitely can't say that I didn't have any fun at all. Quite an interesting topic, and with the portrayal of these two actors, it was quite something. (09/03/2014)
