Movie Review - The Truman Show

Is this podcast real? Is it just something presented to you in order to make you accept this reality in which you are living? That’s a bit too deep, what I can answer, however, is that we’re discussing the Truman Show in this episode of The Cereal Show! Does it fall flat on its philosophical face, or is there some true substance, comedy, and themes to the movie? 

Also, applejacks anyone? 

(Please check the parent’s guide on IMDB before deciding if this is a movie you would be comfortable watching)
