- Synopsis:
- The manic madness of Jim Carrey (Bruce Almighty) strikes again in this totally wired, out of control comedy! Slip the cable guy fifty bucks and you'll get the movie channels for free - it's a time honoured urban ritual. But when Steven Kovacs (Matthew Broderick) moves into his new apartment he picks the wrong cable guy - this guy doesn't want fifty bucks; he just wants a friend for life...and he won't take no for an answer! Steven is about to learn that there's no such thing as free cable.
