Dick (Jim Carrey) works for a big company in corporate America. One day, he gets promoted to the position he has be dreaming about for years. He comes home and tells his wife Jane (Tea Leoni) to quit her job because of his new position. The next day, Dick goes to work and finds out that his boss (Alec Baldwin) is stealing from the company and making the company go bankrupt. So now Dick and Jane are out of a job and have no way to pay the bills. So after trying several low paying and embarrassing jobs, Dick and Jane decide to turn to a life of crime in order to get their life back. Fun and Amusing times ensue.
Jim Carey is one of the best physical comedians there is. While at times he can take go to far in some roles, he does restrain himself here, giving a more focused performances; especially in the first half of the film. Téa Leoni is perfect as Carey's counter part, they are great together. Leoni shows she can do the physical comedy just as good as Carey, stretching herself to bring a wonderful performance.
