The Truman Show - One of the greatest movies ever made

5 stars

27 May 2025

The Truman Show.

The show about a man who's lived a lie his whole life.

Where do I begin?

Honestly I have nothing bad to say about this movie it was just amazing.

The storyline of Truman slowly beginning to become aware of his situation and slowly going mad over it to the point of doing whatever he can to get out or make an actor slip up.

The perspective of the viewers watching his awareness grow on live television and the perspective of the director and crew making sure everything stayed in check.

It's a roller coaster of emotions leaving you rooting for Truman to make his escape from his televised prison.

Again there's nothing bad about this movie. It's just perfection despite what the four stars say.

So seriously give this movie a watch. I would say much more but I can't spoil anything important about the movie.

This movie will leave you thinking that anything that seems perfect is never truly perfect till it feels real.
