Well-intentioned, but nearly every scene feels dragged out.

The first part of the movie will strike some viewers as inspiring and others as manipulative; at any rate, it's clearly the better half, since the final act is patently false and a queer whitewash of a tragic chapter in US history.

... The kind of uplifting movie that I think many would enjoy around the holidays ...

This corny movie may not appeal to kids.

Darabont is seeking to recapture the spirit of Frank Capra - with Carrey in the role of a James Stewart or Gary Cooper. Yet even though Darabont shares Capra's dewy-eyed optimism, his film's sluggish pace means he lacks Capra's screwball zest.

Mr. Carrey may go to both Washington and a version of Bedford Falls in The Majestic, but he is neither the Jefferson Smith nor George Bailey of Stewart's best-loved films.

Marks a steep downturn in Jim Carrey's career.

Carrey is excellent in the lead role supplying both vulnerability and wit...

Darabont and screenwriter Michael Sloane's misty-eyed tribute may be pleasant in places, but it's too manufactured and deliberate to be persuasive.

Don't even look for Clarence the Angel in this slow paced, but effective story.

It can't fake sincerity. It tries ever so hard, but it doesn't have a single believable second.

Carrey gets the best role of his own career -- and plays it with tenderness, valor, bravery and deeply moving conviction. I find him positively captivating.
