Holy Crap!
I wish they had a space for negative stars, this movie sucks so bad it is painful. Not just a little bit painful either.It's like seeing a hero's funeral.I would rather get a punch in the eye than to ever have to watch this movie again.Darn you Jim Carey...Darn you for ever subjecting the world to such horror.After watching this movie, I think it is a miracle from God that anyone ever gave you a second chance to redeem yourself.You should thank God every day that you got a second chance.Oh yeah and the next time you get twenty million bucks for making a movie, please try to buy every copy of this movie in existance....please. Thank You
Rubberface... An indebth look at a social masterpiece
Ok so my title may have been misleading... but so is the cover of this video. "JIM CARREY...IS RUBBERFACE" in actuallity Jim was just a secondary character. I bought this because I live in Perth Western Australia and this movie was never released here. I got a few cheap laughs but was dissapointed by two things...
1) Jim Carrey was hardly in this and despite the title of the film "Rubberface" he actually doesn't pull any of his famous wacky faces in this film.
2) The main Character and Jim tease getting together romantically through every scene they are in and nothing actually happened.
not the worst film ever and a definite watch for die hard fans of Jims work wanting to see where he started out.
Big J!!!! can't help but laugh.
I understand this was a student film, but why is it still available, and why can you buy it almost anywhere, including TARGET!? The only parts that are laugh-inducing are the parts that aren't supposed to be funny: like when Big J (good God, why did the girl let people call her Big J like it was her name?) reveals that her plans for the night involve her hanging out with her Sony. It's supposed to be sad but it's just funny and then you feel bad for laughing at her. Big J can't help being so dorky. She hangs out with her boombox for Christ's sake. That is, until Jim Carry comes along. He becomes her supporter when she goes to comedy clubs to "perform", but she's not funny. Jim laughs anyway. Way too cheesy. It's so horrible that my brother and I try to get people to rent it, and we tell them that it's the funniest movie we've ever seen....
I want 48 minutes of my life back
This could quite possibly have been the worst movie i've ever seen in my entire existence! First off...Jim Carrey should do everything in his power to have this movie no longer releaseed or accessable to the public.(animals included) This movie can be rented in the comedy section of a video store...it shouldn't be there. The only laughs I had were me and other people laughing at me for my selection of a wasted night watching this movie. Sure you may come back and say it was a student film...but honestly, where the hell could he or she be a student at!! Who would accept someone with such lack of talent and creativity. Sure the girl was Fat...nbut that wasn't here main problem. The acted like an idiot all the time and then ALLOWED people to call her BIG J!! This is a complex written all over it. This is BIG J calling was always followed by some cheap Yogi Bear impresion...once again retaining back to the fact that she's fat and her rolemodel was a picnic basket stealing bear. Jim Carey didn't even entered this movie untill about 20 or so minutes into it. And just furtherd this movies down-hill spiral we call a waste of film. I was not impressed and don't recommend this waste o time, film, and brain cells to anyone thing. Even if no one is watching this movie in your house, Please don't leave it on in an empty living room where some small child or housepet could stumble blindly into the path of idiotic rays being dispersed from the TV screen. MY CAT DIED, WHILE VIEWING THIS FILM. please heed my warning.

Descent movie, but nowhere near the standards of quality Jim Carry material. Most of our time is spent on speculating the teenage troubles of a young girl. Rubber Face is nothing but a late 70's ammateur film that happened to feature Jim Carry midway through the movie. I appreciate the film's heart, set with the main charactor's cute but trutheful phylosophy. There are a couple of short comedy bits that deliver quality laughs, but all in all, the movie is more sentimental then it is humorous. I enjoyed the film's innocent taste, as well as the actors' simplistic yet soothing portrayal of teenage confusion. Seeing the movie, you wonder why such a bad script can deliver even the slightest touch of emotion. This effect is due to the film's fresh acting, especially Jim Carry's role in playing an unimployed comedian who attempts to enlighten the main charactor through his humour.
I admire the film for its simplistic story-line set under a light tone. The picture quality was pretty bad, but what else do you expect from a student film? The cinematography is moderate, the sound is reasonably clear, even the scenes appear professionally synchronized. Like a satisfying appetizer, this movie is refreshing as it is delightful. However, if you have a soft spot for Jim Carry, I suggest viewing his later features, such as Ace Ventura and The Mask. Do not be fooled by the cover, this is no Jim Carry "knock-out", but the pleasant premises makes up for it. Buy it for easy, quick enjoyment (as well a glimpse of the "softer" side of Jim Carry). Enjoy!
