NEW YORK TIMES


“The Number 23” is an accidental comedy starring a deadly serious Jim Carrey.

MANOHLA DARGIS

EMPIRE


Genuinely intriguing in places and romps along at a satisfying pace for a conspiracy thriller.

SIMON CROOK

AUSTIN CHRONICLE


Schumacher is as much to blame for this mess as Carrey is. Over and over again, he mistakes looming shadows and manic outbursts for tension, and his ponderous, ham-fisted directorial style creates more questions than it answers.

 MY TAKE  

When I read some analyses for this movie, I thought about not seeing it. But there was a time when i was bored and chose to watch it. I liked it. Different People have different taste! Maybe the reason I liked it is because of an external factor

I saw an identical movie in my native language (Malayalam) when i was young. But it was so awfully made that it demolished it's otherwise fascinating story. So I was relieved to see the same story that was nicely made.

Maybe that would be the reason that I love this film. Either way, I like it. Before watching this, I always used to fit Jim Carrey in funny comedic roles But this flick altered my entire impression. Its nicely inscribed and has incredible cinematography and editing. It will fiddle with your sanity even after completing the movie. This movie is seriously underrated.
