Plot

Timid bank clerk Stanley Ipkiss discovers a magical mask infused with the spirit of the Norse god Loki. Donning it transforms him into an unrestrained, green-faced, cartoon-like wild man. While the mask grants him the confidence to woo a local singer, it also makes him the target of a ruthless mobster.

Themes and moodShow

This movie encapsulates the struggle between the timid self and the liberating potential of self-expression through its zany humor and slapstick visuals. Jim Carrey's energetic performance carries the absurd narrative as he transforms from a meek bank clerk into a chaotic force of nature, drawing laughs and gasps alike. The film appeals to audiences looking for a playful escape, offering both romance and crime in a whimsical fantasy that feels refreshingly wild in a mid-1990s landscape.
