The Number 23

I'm not really sure what to think about this film. It was a bit absurd, and the final "explanation" of the whole plot towards the end of the movie takes way too long. In the end, it is never very clear why 23 is actually such a powerful number...just a lot of coincidental occurrences and some creative number crunching.

Without spoiling the entire plot, it is way too implausible that Jim Carrey's character actually forgets an entire segment of his life, or even more implausible is how his wife of 13 years never questions this big gap in his history. I thought this would be a scary, creepy or suspenseful film. It's none of those. Just a bit irritating and highly disappointing.  At least it wasn't too long. Also, maybe it's the fact that I have watched three movies today and am a bit weary (I am ill with some stomach ailment). Regardless, I don't think I would have liked the film even if I were feeling 100% and it wasn't nearly midnight...
