Jim Carrey Does Sammy Davis, Jr.

by Lara on June 7th, 2008

I’ve got a bittersweet feeling about this one. I do like Jim Carrey, and I do like impersonation comedy, but I think he might’ve gone a little overboard with it all. To the point where it’s kind of a little bit offensive to Sammy Davis, Jr. in a way… I don’t know, what do you think?

It’s Jim from way back in his standup days… before he was a huge movie star for certain.
