The Truman Show is a wonderful, thought-provoking movie (And it is a movie, not a tv show) that really makes you think about life. It also gives a thought that maybe, during your whole life, you are being watched like "Big brother" watches you in the film "1984". It has a great story that only a genius could have thought up, the acting and drama is remarkable, and it's just... great! I love it! parents, your kid should be over ten, however before seeing this, or he/she might not get the story or the concept. There is some language and a couple tiny somewhat hard-to-notice sexual referances. Also, it might be disturbing to a kid whos not old enough that they might be being watched. Also, the cruel thing that is done to Truman, making him into a TV show, will draw thoughts from you mind. But its a great movie. See it.
