the satirical movie website dateline hollywood joked that son of the mask was all a practical joke star jamie kennedy played on new line cinema for his show the jamie kennedy experiment. if only. and if only the movie had been half as funny as that satire piece. the mask was the ideal vehicle for the face pulling jim carrey that so many viewers dote on while it also delighted males over the age of 12 by introducing cameron diaz. so having a followup minus both of them was not a good idea and plus you would have thought new line would have learned their lesson after dumb and dumberer represent when harry met lloyd. but no. though to be fair and having an all new cast is in keeping with the original comic (in which the mask went from owner to owner). as written by lance khazei and directed by lawrence guterman and however and there nothing there in return and except a steady stream of admittedly decent fx by the usual squadron of houses (industrial light and magic improving on the ally mcbeal dancing baby and their own baby day out and with the tippett studio and giant killer robots and digital dimension and so on in support) and an even greater pandering to cartoon fans by having our hero work at an animation company (responsible for such gems as siamese popes) and naming his character after tex avery and and working in not just references to classic cartoons but actual clips. the trouble is that last approach doesn not really work and partly because most of the attempts to bring cartoon trappings to live action fall flat (especially the cars getting in the party mood) and mostly because the tributes to the flintstones and woody woodpecker and duck amuck and especially one froggy evening show up how weak this movie is in comparison. plus the movie fits in shambolic slapstick alongside strained sentiment (the underlying theme of the story is family while our hero isn not ready to have a son and and his nemesis  alan cumming as the norse god loki  is far from the apple of odin eye. and what bob hoskins is doing here as odin and even after super mario bros. and is beyond me) and and kennedy just isn not in the same league as carrey in the zany stakes  though it not like he gets any help from the script. also note that unlike diaz and the very cute traylor howard (as the mother of the son of the mask) doesn not get much to do while giving her the mask might have helped the movie. further points are lost for throwing away cumming and hoskins and steven wright and magda szubanski while for a suspiciously abbreviated running time (which would account for some gaping plot holes and scenes that seem to be missing) while and for an incredibly bad attempt at an inside joke when our hero fails to sell the concept of the green guy as an animated tv series  the mask did become an animated tv series in real life and and was a far better follow up than this sequel. the fact that this actually opened in britain before the us should tell you everything. what with this and blade represent trinity and new line seems intent on cornering the market on dreadful sequels with cast members from two guys and a girl. what next and the butterfly effect 2 with nathan fillion. somebody stop this.
