I Love You Phillip Morris

Guardian“An intriguing, offbeat comedy...” Carrey and McGregor certainly succeed in making it all funny. Carrey's anti-hero is, after all, a very clever man, who gets away with a lot of stuff. There is something funny and touching about this anarchic, abortive love affair...

The Independent“It's hard to imagine almost any of Carrey's peers taking the role...” Written and directed by the screenwriters of Bad Santa, the film has enough swearing, semi-nudity, outrageous black comedy, and – bravest of all – cleverness to make most A-listers run a mile...

Little White Lies“The true story of straight cop-turned-gay grifter...” Unfortunately, the fact that it’s based on a true story is the only convincing thing about the movie. Certainly, the material is missing the sure hand of a Terry Zwigoff or Richard Linklater...

Time Out film“Steven Russell has led quite a life...” Maybe we don’t quite buy Jim and Ewan’s hots for one another, maybe the writing makes Carrey’s character too much of a psychotic narcissist while rendering McGregor in terms of fluffy-bunny passivity, but either way it just ain’t happening...

The Times“The stuff of urban legend...” These directors know what they're doing. Just when you think you have this sweet but seemingly lightweight movie figured out, it ends with a sucker punch that forces you to re-evaluate everything...

Empire“One of the sharpest, blackest and funniest comedies of the year...” One of the funniest films of the year, this is a wonderful mix of old-school Carrey outrageousness with a genuinely touching — and very modern — love story...

Variety“Less of a comedy than a hilarious tragedy...” The cutting, juxtaposition of scenes and reaction shots hit their targets precisely, with Steven's occasional suicidal plunge turned into a laugh...

The Telegraph“Jim Carrey's best performance since Eternal Sunshine...” Candid sex scenes between the co-stars have led conservative US distributors to step back from this film. They're stupid: this is a consistently funny and very sweet love story only prigs of which only prigs could disapprove...

Total Film “Too much story, character and Carrey to contain in one film...” Carrey channels his limitless energy into Russell’s kaleidoscopic life, bursting from the closet of a sham hetero-marriage into a car-crash of flamboyant excess. Hugely entertaining in fits and starts...
