No, I haven't seen that one - the one where he's God for a day, right?

Because of my stated objection to the guy I don't go out of my way to see his films. And I imagine he's bad enough, but given God's powers ... well all-powerful insufferable pr!ck comes to mind! :-)

OTOH, essentially before he came to power properly, in the Mask he was OK, as he was playing a straight guy and then a cartoon maniac. Little did we realise he was going to continue in his Mask persona for the rest of hisa career.
