The Mask (1994)

   I haven't watched The Mask in at least 15 years, probably longer but fuck it, it was on Hulu.  

Stanley Ipkiss (Jim Carrey) is a low-level flunky at a bank, desperate for love but without a prayer, when he finds an old wooden mask.  Putting the mask on turns him into a living cartoon character, freeing him from his anxieties and allowing him to pursue his dreams of being liked, the center of attention, and wooing club bombshell Tina Carlyle (Cameron Diaz).  Unfortunately, the mask's antics garner attention from cops in Detective Kellaway (Peter Riegert) to ambitious mob lieutenant Dorian Tyrell (Peter Greene).  Everyone wants the mask and Stanley is caught in the middle of the chaos.

I'm surprised how well this held up.  It was a huge hit for Jim Carrey and remains one of his most iconic performances.  I swear, every dude in junior high absorbed this as their whole personality for the entire year when it came out.  Just relentlessly parroted back every catch phrase.  So if you decide to show this to your pre-teens, know that you will hear "S-S-S-SMOKIN'" for the next 8-10 months or until you kill them.

Currently streaming on Hulu and Amazon Prime.
