Synopsis:
From the pages of Dark Horse Comics comes action, romance and a whole lot of mischief, when Stanley Ipkiss (Jim Carey -`Ace Ventura: Pet Detective`) dons The Mask.
He`s a new kind of hero, one you may not want to call on for help. When Stanley finds an ancient mask, he believes his luck is finally going to change. He might even get the girl, supermodel Cameron Diaz, but by putting on The Mask, he gets more than he`d bargained for.
The relic fuses to his face, turning him from a meek, normal man into an indestructible, wise-cracking hero. He contorts his body, moves at warp speed, knows your every desire, satisfies your every whim, and dances like Fred Astaire, Gumby and Barishnikov rolled into one.
He`s somebody! He`s The Mask... and he`s smokin`!

Your Opinions and Comments
Can`t say a bad word about audio, though. It just twists your room!
Overall, The Mask is a perfect fun to watch, but the DVD really needs improving on the visual side. The sooner the better.
