 Reviewer: Big Zach NOT A KIDS REVIEW although im a kid! August 21, 2005
The best book i have ever read! I am a huge Jim Carrey fan! He is my all time favorite actor and he is my greatest inspiration. If you watch movies like Ace Ventura,the mask and the magestic you'll know what I mean. And I LOVED this book so much! 30 percent of the reason that I love Jim Carrey so much is in this book. He is a great person and he went through so much to achieve his dream. Some of it may be inacurate but tha is fine. I't is an amazing story of his life and is written great. If your ahuge carrey fan like me read this!

From a poor janitor in Canada to one of todays most outrageous comedians in Hollywood. Roy Trakin writes about the life of a poor Canadian kid trying to get somewhere in life. Learn about how Jim Carrey tried to impress his father throughout his life and why he had to break up with his rug. Learn more about the movies you have seen when you were a little kid, like "Once Bitten" and "The Mask". You will also find out why he was at the point of throwing it all out away. You can read all this and more in Jim Carrey Unmasked.
One of the things that I liked about the book was all the secrets that were revealed. When you here about Jim Carrey, you never think of his outside life. All you think about is how funny he is. Once you read about how he starts from a good childhood to a depressing stand up comic, you can't feel anything but sadness for Jim. I liked reading about this because I never used to like Jim Carrey or his movies. Once you start reading this book you will start laughing, crying, and even start to think.
I think that overall this book was good, but there was one thing that I did not like. When the book starts writing about the movies Jim Carrey has been in, they start going into deep detail about the movie. Trakin does not describe the movies much, but he does tell us who directs them. I don't know about you guys, but I don't think any one really cares about the movies's cast members. If we don't read the credits at the end of the movie what makes him think we want to read them in a book. That was the only thing that I strongly disliked. So, unless you are a big Jim Carrey fan, I do not recommend this book.
This book describes Jim Carrey's life in greatest detail! January 27, 1997

I have read this book and I find it extremely exelirating. It describes the life of one of the greatest stars of Hollywood how he went from scrubing toilets to being one of the richest men on earth. This book even goes all the way back to when he was just two years old. It has all of Jim Carrey's ups and downs. So if you are interested to know more about the greatest comedian, read this book You will not regret it! By: Michael Vinogradov(VladdyV@aol.com)
