Escape from one's own responsibility is what everyone likes and is best at doing. Bruce is almost always just a comedian in the news group of the TV station. The news returned from the interview is always not enough for the competitor. The opponent quickly rises to the position and becomes the anchor, but Bruce is always running around reporting some trivial and boring but wanting to win the audience. Back-up news with a smile. Depressed at work, Bruce is also quite unlucky in life, such as being late due to a big traffic jam, such as walking into a puddle, such as a car crashing into a telephone pole... Bruce also had to start questioning exactly what it is like all the unlucky people. It was not a ghost made by God, so he gradually changed from "the occasional desire for God to satisfy some hopes" to "cursing God for why he made himself so desperate". At this time, the impatiently scolded "God" jumped out. , Decided to share part of his abilities to Bruce, nominally letting Bruce work instead of him, but in fact gave Bruce an omnipotent right to take "whatever he wants".
When people have nothing, there will always be positive things like this to achieve. But when more and more things are realized, even when all wishes suddenly become feasible, people’s desires will swell to the point where they cannot be added, and even because there are too many achievable things before their eyes, they finally Will bury the original purpose.
Bruce used his omnipotent abilities to do some very meaningless things, such as splitting the tomato soup, such as letting densely packed vehicles retreat on both sides to make a smooth passage. In order to please his girlfriend Grace and the audience, the moon was drawn closer to the earth and the meteorite hit Buffalo. These actions that seemed to make Bruce a popular person in life quickly caused a series of disasters beyond common sense. And Bruce didn't seem to be able to deal with the problems he had caused in an orderly manner. At first, Bruce didn't think so. He was complacent about being a favorite host that everyone paid attention to. He forgot that he just wanted to be a simple news host, and his desire began to swell.
When anything can be achieved with no effort, this kind of life may become boring instead. And at this time, I discovered that perhaps anyone would feel guilty when satisfying one's own selfish desires would bring misfortune to others.
Bruce finally understood this. He realized that blindly satisfying himself would only make things unreasonable, and when everything lost the original rules, the world would become a mess. So he gradually gave up the right to use it, and replaced it with his own efforts in exchange for success.
Then finally, he started not to scold God, he began to be satisfied with all the arrangements, he began to learn to fight on his own.
Although Jim Carrey’s play is still dominated by comedies, when I saw the introduction of the movie on Phoenix a few years ago, he mainly focused on "How amazing Bruce has special abilities", but the movie is actually serious. It tells the story about desire.
Desire is not a derogatory term, but the specific actions to which desire transfers are divided into commendatory and derogatory means and processes. Some people want to hurt others for their own benefit, some people work hard for the sake of desire, and some people don't make the slightest effort to complain about others every day.
Therefore, Jim Carrey, who has exaggerated movements and exaggerated facial expressions, even lying on the bed, told us that the realization of desires is not the point. How to realize your desires is the greatest gift God gives us.
This movie is similar to Adam Sandler's "Remote for Life". It seems that comedy stars like to tell us the truth of life.
