It took me 45 minutes to realize I was watching a clever twist on "Prisoner, The" (1967) [TV-Series]. The only thing that kept me watching after that was my curiosity. I had been observing Jim Carrey's career then. This movie showed a very different Jim Carrey than I was used to. I hope he continues down this path, widening his character spectrum. I have never watched all of "The Prisoner" so I cannot say both stories ended the same way or differently.
