Evan Almighty
Steve Carell (The 40-Year-Old Virgin), reprising his role as the polished, preening newscaster Evan Baxter of Bruce Almighty, is the next one anointed by God to accomplish a holy mission in the hilarious new comedy Evan Almighty. Blockbuster comedy director Tom Shadyac (The Nutty Professor, Liar Liar, Bruce Almighty) returns behind the camera for this next episode of divine intervention. This time, however, his cast grows two-by-two.
Newly elected to Congress, Evan leaves Buffalo behind and shepherds his family to suburban northern Virginia. Once there, his life gets turned upside-down when God (Morgan Freeman) appears and mysteriously commands him to build an ark. But his befuddled family just can't decide whether Evan is having an extraordinary mid-life crisis or is truly onto something of Biblical proportions...

Hilarious
One of the funniest films I have seen in a long time. I went to see it twice and we all just never stopped laughing even on the way home. It makes me smile to even think about it. I cant wait for the DVD so I can see it again. The animals are amazing the effects at the end gripping. A must for all the family.

[Highly rated reviewer]
Its summer 2007, its Britain, and its a film about a FLOOD !!!
Having read the script, Jim Carrey decided against reprising his role in Bruce Almighty, and being a known avoider of 'follow on' movies (Son of mask 'no thanks !' , Dumb and Dumberer 'no thanks !), you would guess he knows a thing or three about the dreaded follow on... But you know with Carrey 'out of the picture' as it were, Steve Carrell steps up in his billing from Bruce Almighty, and does a pretty good job of it.
Ok its not Bruce but it is a really good summer fun family film, and though it is slightly preachy in the American way with its message, it is definately worth a watch, certainly nowhere near as bad as some people make out. Recommended. -
