This movie is the sequel to Bruce Almighty and looks very funny and entertaining. Evan, the news guy that Bruce humiliated, plays the role of Bruce in this movie and has similar powers to what Bruce had in the original movie. I just saw the previews while at theatre today watching Night at the Museum. People were dying laughing while watching the previews. Will you be seeing this movie or do you think it will be a flop? Did you enjoy Bruce Almighty?

Well i thought that bruce almight was brilliant but this doesnt sound all that good. Howver i am sure i will go to see it when it comes out here in UK. [CarlJennings]
So basically it is the same as Bruce almight but with Evan instead. Sounds weird, but like i said i will probably end up watching it anyway :P [CarlJennings]
Bruce Almighty made me laugh so hard the first time, I had to go see it again so I could catch the parts I missed. If Evan Almighty is produced by the same people who did Bruce, I'll definitely see it. Do you know if Morgan Freeman will be in this one as well? [DoubleB66]
Thank you for supplying the link to the movie information. It is very helpful! [MakDomMom]
We will probably see this movie. We enjoyed Bruce Almighty very much. You might as well give this film a chance too. There are so many other ones that have flopped and we took the time to watch those, so night as well watch this one too. [MakDomMom]
You are very welcome for the link. I had no idea about this movie til i went to theatre today. It seemed pretty funny and am interested in seeing how this one plays out compared to Bruce Almighty. [kgwat70]
bruce almighty did not thrill me at all. It had moments but it seemed forced. I felt guilty for watching, like it was a mockery to God. I doubt I will watch evan almighty. If I do it will be a rental or when it is HBO or something. [joannavon]
I can understand your point of view as well about the original movie as I am sure others took offense to it as well. Thank you for taking time to respond and hope that you are having a nice day. [kgwat70]
I remember this movie-I thought it was extremely funny. I remember the scene where the dog was using the potty in Bruce's bathroom and holding the newspaper with his paws and reading. The look on Bruce's girlfriend, Grace, when she opened the bathroom door was priceless. I will keep a look out for the sequel because I really enjoy funny movies. [enchantedemerald]
I do remember a lot from Bruce Almighty and wonder what kind of funny things Evan will be doing with his powers. It should be interesting to say the least and is supposed to come out in theatres sometime this summer. [kgwat70]
Oh! This is the first I have heard of it coming out. I'll be looking forward to watching it though knowing us we'll wait until it comes out on DVD or one of the movie channels to watch it. We really liked Bruce Almighty, so thinking that the sequel to it shall be rather amusing. We like Jim Carrey too [Penguinsangel]
Well I had to let me sister know about this. She loves Bruce Almighty. I think it was a good movie but she likes it a lot more then I do. I think it might be worth watching but I'll probably wait till it comes out on DVD. I don't usually go to the theaters for movies. [emeraldisle]
Bruce Almighty Is great, wonderful. Im gonna get Even Almighty as well. [Mecboy]
That movie is blasphemous. [purepwnage]
Good. Then they can look at all the transcripts of the death threats you've issued against my friend. I'm sure they'll get a real kick out of them. [DoubleB66]
Cool I didn't even know it was coming out. Thanks for the heads up. I'd deff see it. That guy is pretty funny in movies so it will prob be good. I have Bruce Almighty on dvd [mem666]
I liked Bruce Almighty, but I don't know if I could sit through a sequel. Evan seems like he would be a really funny character, but it would be almost the same movie. I'm sure different things would happen, but you get the idea. If my friends really want to see the movie I might join them, but other then that it will be a rental for me....if I'm bored. :) [Tarrish]
Yeah i'll try to search the movie from a video store, so i cant commnet on that one. [totnakish]
I haven't heard of the movie yet but when it's showing on the thether, I will watch it. I watched bruce almighty last year and I enjoyed it a lot. I laughed so much because Jim Carrey is so funny. [faylinn_chaeli]
i am addicted to jim carrey's bruce almighty. i have seen it four times and still, i can't stop laughing! i haven't heard yet about evan almight until now. i hope jim carrey's there as well. but nevertheless, i do think it will be a nice sequel to watch as well and see what happens after his life with Bruce. [maryannemax]
I believe that Jim will not be in this movie this time but Morgan Freeman is in the movie and playing the role as God again. It still looks funny and will check it out for sure. [kgwat70]
I saw the trialer on TV and I think it will be better than "Bruce Almighty". Me and my son were laughing out loud by just wathing the trailer on TV which is shorter than trailer shown in the cinema. Although not as well known as Jim Carrey in comedy, this news guy looks funny enough to make us laugh. [josephperera]
i surely enjoyed bruce almighty! it was hilarious from beginning to end but more than a comedy, it was a learning experience =) i also saw the trailer of evan almighty and it was also FUNNY! i love the premise of building an ark just like noah did. i will surely watch this movie and im sure this will be a hit. i mean, come on guys, it stars steve carrell! the 40yr old virgin! lol [cutieissa]
I loved watching Bruce Almighty. It was soo funny i had to see it a second time :D I didn't know there was a sequel coming out until I read your discussion. I definitely am looking forward to this one, but i'm a little sceptic coz of Jim carrey's absence. Anyways, since I like the dude who plays Evan (i thought he was real funny too),Steve Carell, I guess I'll be watching this one. Hopefully it will be as funny as the prequel [trihknittee]
god will really be very angry to watch this movie. Dont you think so.. [circuit]
I thought Bruce Almighty was hilerious! Morgan Freeman as God- genious! Jim Carrey is great, but he never really strays from comedy, it would be good to see him in a straight role, just to stretch his acting and to see if he is really capable of anything else. I hadn't heard of the sequel until now, but its something I wouldn't mind seeing. [donnadean1980]
really, i love bruce almighty. definitely i will go to see that one. uhmm i dont know if it will flop but it they attacked the movie in a different way and not just like the first one then i guess it will become hit. [lossforredwords]
I really liked bruce almighty, i knew that evan almightly is also coming , i am waiting for it to be released in india. Yup the news reader from the 1st part takes center stage in this one. He is a really gr8 actor , i saw his movie 40 year lod virgin, that was also a great comedy movie. [deepuj]
whoa! this should be good! i laughed so hard watching bruce almighty, so i wish i wont be disappointed in this one. are the makers the same as those of bruce almighty? well, steve carell is also a good comedian so i guess there's no messing up this one. plus add morgan freeman! hehehe. can you tell im excited? im not even making sense. [bertus_magnus]
Bruce was great, I guess I'll see Evan at some point. I can't wait for the third, Thomas almighty. A simple clerk who watches two movies about god giving his power to other people actual has it happen to him. Oh the hyjenks that persue and he tries to help people on the mylot discussion group hes a part of. What happens when you stop giving advice and just make it happen? [uath13]
I seen Bruce Almighty and really enjoyed it. If Im not mistaken isnt Evan the same guy from "The 40 Year Old Version". If its who Im thinking of it should be funny. I dont tend to like the sequals to movies. It seems like the original is always the best. I havent seen the coming attractions yet but I would most likely wait for it to come out on video before watching it. Best of luck to you! [contusion12878]
Yes, Evan is the same guy in the Bruce Almighty film as well as the 40 Year Old Virgin. He is hilarious so this sequel should be funny as well, though maybe not as good as the original with Jim Carrey. [kgwat70]
Hi, when is it to be released, is Jim Carey starring in this sequel???? I think it will be a barrel of laughs. [darrenharris]
Haha that is so awesome that they are making a sequel! I will definitely go see it! I loved the first one, I about died laughing in the theater when I saw it. And Steve Carell (sp?) is hilarious!! I can't wait until it comes out!:D [jojopuff]
I enjoyed Bruce Almighty alot.......... [handsomevasista]
hahaha.. i enjoyed bruce almighty and im looking forward to evan almighty.. will jim carry be there? hope this will be a good laugh. i was laughing so hard when bruce was manipulating evan while reporting.. that was so funny.. ehhehe.. [kuyafish]
I saw the previews for it. I will probably go see it but I doubt it will be as good as Bruce. It looks like they just wanted to squeeze a few more bucks out of us at the box offices. I could be wrong though. [mikeyr6000le]
I thought Bruce Almighty was okay. I didn't know that there is going to be a sequel to it though. I think I would have to see the preview before I decided if I am going to watch it. [jmcafam]
I loved the movie Bruce Almighty. Hope that its as good as the original Bruce .. Is jim carrey starred in the movie. [divir_vij]
That is correct that Jim Carrey is not in this film as the role was passed on to Evan, who also starred in the 40 Year Old Virgin. Morgan Freeman is returning in the same role in this movie. [kgwat70]
I've seen Bruce Almighty and I like it very much. So, I will be seeing it when it comes out. Thanks for letting me know this. [Lydia1901]
I'm torn in my opinion of this film, first off the history of jim carrey sequals without jim carrey starring, dumb and dumberer, son of the mask etc they have a history of being terrible flops. But on the other hand Steve Carrell (Evan)is a great actor, and has had recent success in Little Miss Sunshine, i think he may have the ability and charisma to move the spotlight away from Carrey, even if his appearance in the first film is forgettable (like brick tamland from anchorman but with less laughs and less lines. I do think it will be a commercial success, and pretty well recieved, i haven't seen the previews yet they aren't in UK cinemas. What did you think to night at the museum? i found it really funny for a PG and ben stiller gives a great performance. [mikey67]
I loved the movie Night at the Museum as it was a very funny movie and will probably go see it again with a friend tomorrow evening. It was better than I thought after seeing the previews. It is hard to have sequels without the main character but Evan should be funny. [kgwat70]
Steve Carrel (from The Office, The 40 Year Old Virgin, Little Miss Sunshine) is in it! Of course it's going to be a great movie that will do well. Plus Lauren Graham plays his wife :) It does look really funny and it's one that I can't wait to see. [GnosticGoddess]
I will wait till this movie goes to dvd to rent. I am trying not to go to the theaters as much it is just so darn expensive. I really like the actor who plays evan he was really good in little miss sunshine. [april444]
You are certainly right about it being way expensive, both day and night movies. I do not go as often now but still go when something I like comes out. [kgwat70]
I loved Bruce Almighty and I look forward to seeing Evan Almighty. I'm sure if it will be as good but I think Steve Carrol is a great comedic actor. I do like the overall idea though so I'll at least rent it. I have seen some of the previews and read about it a little and it sounds like there are going to be a couple nice little twists. We'll have to wait and see. [entrepreneurgirl]
I really didnt care for the first one..so I don't think I will watch Evan Almighty.. I respect the personal tastes of others however, and am glad you liked it. [littlefranciscan]
