Bruce Almighty wants to be an anchorman on a local TV show. He doesn't get the job and flips out at God. God, who is Morgan Freeman, as it should be, decides to give Bruce infinite power. Bruce then uses this for his own selfish needs, providing funny moments along the way. This story includes tons of cool celebrities, so it must be great, right?
Well... no. I was expecting this movie to be at least decent, but honestly, I didn't like it. It may just not be my taste, since I can see how this movie could be appealing to the general audience, but it wasn't my cup of tea. There were moments where I laughed a fair bit, especially the trumpet scene, but still, the movie just fell short. I think it's because of how basic the story was. Morgan Freeman played such a stereotypical God role and I honestly didn't enjoy him in this one. Steve Carell wasn't too funny either, which really threw me off. This movie was overall super forgettable and easily on the worst half of my list for this year. It's no Birth of a Nation, only few films can be as great as that one. That was a joke, I'm just trying to distract myself from the fact that I didn't like this movie with such good potential.
