Theres a few things about the Truman show that fuck with your head. Jim Carrey is a somewhat tall actor, and you think of a Truman character as being a short guy with Napoleon's syndrome. Marlon seems more like a guy that would bring a 40 by and want to listen to reggae music after work (with a bluetooth device in his ear) than a white guy with blond hair who shows up with a 6 pack, if he's not an Italian guy that wants to talk business with you. It's not a bad movie, there are just a few inconsistencies about it.
The Truman Show is different than what you would think it would be. It's not meant to be funny, but it's also not a sad movie either. It's kind of like a part of hell, a slice of hell taken from the rest of hell broke loose.

An event which seems unbelievably contrived - so much so that when it happens to you, you begin to suspect that you are not a real person, but a character in a celestial sitcom.
(from a Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour episode, ca. 1956) You are in Las Vegas and you and the Mertzes want to go on a uranium hunting expedition in the desert, and children are not allowed. You then discover that a couple you know from New York is staying in the same hotel with their child. Little Ricky then goes to Hoover Dam with the other couple and their child, freeing you to hunt for uranium. The "Truman Show moment" occurs when you discover that the other couple is at your hotel.

After multiple quarters were sunk into the game, Kat realized she could catch but not harm the Whack-A-Mole. She walked away shaking her head and rubbing her face, acknowledging the exhaustive power of the Shit Show. Curse you, Whack-A-Mole Shit Show!!!"

When a chubby girl performs risque acts as entertainment for a group, so that she can gain some small level of social acceptance.
The host quickly pointed out two chubby girls, each sitting alone at the party that he could target. Ten minutes later, with a minimal amount of prodding from the party goers, the two chubby girls were sitting on the bar next to one another topless with the party goers lining up to take shots from between their Juggs. It wasn't a great whale show, but it kept the crowd amused at no cost.
