Those heady days of Carey's madness appear to be getting old. There's no Ace Ventura left in him, Jim Carey's act is growing dull. A bit like this entire movie. The plot is morally at odds with itself, as Dick and Jane embark on a life of serious crime to survive - including armed robbery - and yet they're still positioned in the story as the heroes of the piece... after they deliberately bankrupt someone!
This is a fairly lame movie with few decent laughs. After Carey's magnificent performance in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, I wish he'd aim more towards "serious" acting - the guy clearly has enourmous skill and talent for it - rather than more of the "whacky" stuff which is simply becoming a farce for all the wrong reasons.
Jim Carey was my reason for watching this movie. It was a wholly deflating experience.
