I’ve admired Jim Carrey and his work for a long time now, especially whens he adds comedic value to films that are fairly inspirational and meaningful.
I’m talking about, of course, ‘Yes Man!’ and ‘Bruce Almighty’.
You can’t not love those two inspirational films.

Incredible and utterly inspiring. Thank you for handing a map to the many lost souls in our universe. Most people are trapped in the dense forest of their minds and cannot escape the vines of fear that tie them to the underbrush. You can cut that vegetation off my limbs and left me liberated and free from my fearful constraints. God bless your heart.
