Critics consensus

“A funny, tender, and thought-provoking film, The Truman Show is all the more noteworthy for its remarkably prescient vision of runaway celebrity culture and a nation with an insatiable thirst for the private details of ordinary lives.”

There are no surprises in The Truman Show, except that Weir and Carrey manage to keep the picture on course.

RTDetroit Free PressFeb 14, 2023

This is acting that isn't, but Carrey doesn't let the two-way mirror throw him; his unreality becomes his only real truth.

It is really about freedom... and it is to our own enslavement that this powerful, brilliant, and profound film speaks.

It’s a curious social experiment idea, even if it's steeped in a fantasy so comprehensive that it always feels unconvincing.
