Son of the Mask is the 2005 sequel to the 1994 Jim Carrey fantasy comedy The Mask, which was itself based on the Dark Horse Comics series of the same name about a magical green mask that gives strange, almost unlimited powers to anybody who wears it, but also causes them to lose all their inhibitions and self-control. The violent tone of the comics was toned down in the first film adaptation to suit Carrey's comedy stylings, so fans clamoring for a more loyal adaptation were displeased even more when Son of the Mask reduced the style further, to the point of making it (supposedly) family-oriented.The plot concerns failed cartoonist Tim Avery (Jamie Kennedy), who is afraid of conceiving a child with his wife Tonya (Traylor Howard) because he believes his kid would be ashamed of him and his dead-end job. But then, he gets a hold of the Mask, which works its usual magic, transforming him into the green-faced cartoony maverick that not only becomes the toast of the company party, but also impregnates his wife without his consent. (Not rape, mind you!)Nine months later, out pops young Alvey Avery, the titular son of the Mask, who's sometimes cute, but mostly an insufferable sadist. When Tonya leaves town for business, Tim is left taking care of him, and Alvey proceeds to drive his dad totally insane with his bizarre abilities - which he does not need the Mask to use. Joining the battle royale is the family dog, Otis, who wears the Mask and uses its powers to try to kill Alvey because he doesn't want to compete for Tim's attention.But that's not the end of it! The Norse god of mischief and original creator of the Mask, Loki himself (Alan Cumming) is making the rounds, trying to find the Mask to take it back to Valhalla because it's caused too much trouble in the human world, under the instruction of his dad, Odin the All-Father (Bob Hoskins). The movie's climax features a Mask'd Tim and Loki duking it out over possession of both the Mask and the Son it has spawned.

Mythology Gag
 Son of the Mask / int_26ac510e
comment
Mythology Gag: When Tim's boss, Daniel Moss (Steven Wright), approaches him with concepts for different cartoons, he first comes up with the idea to base it on the Mask "character" he's been hearing so much about lately, since he sees so much potential in it, even eventually making it into a movie and turning it into a franchise. Instead, that concept gets tossed aside at the end of the movie for a cartoon about a baby and a dog competing for their father's affection, based on Alvey and Otis' lethal cat-and-mouse experiences. Mask-Tim performs Frankie Valli's "Can't Take my Eyes off You", which happened in the comics when an aspiring rock musician tried to use the mask as a quick-and-easy way to become a rock star.

comment
Sadly Mythtaken: Among its many other faults, the movie also gets Norse mythology wrong. Odin and Loki are not father and son in Norse Mythology, they are bond brothers. It's such a huge mistake that either the writers just didn't care or their only familiarity with Norse mythology was from Marvel's version. They're second cousins at most. And Loki would not have fooled Odin by telling him Balder was coming back because Balder is dead... because Loki killed him (indirectly, but still). Threatening people with lightning was more Thor's schtick; Odin was a God of Magic. True, that's all-encompassing, but you could try.

Animals Lack Attributes
 Son of the Mask / int_665136e6
comment
Animals Lack Attributes: Otis the dog is partly played by a real dog and partly by animation. When the dog is real, it obviously has the equipment you would expect. As soon as it puts on the mask and becomes animated, however, the downstairs department is noticeably lacking. This could have been handwaved as being an effect of the mask itself, had it not been for the fact that the whole premise of the movie is that a human male impregnates his wife whilst wearing the mask. Not to mention the original movie had Milo, Stanley's dog, also wearing the mask and peeing on one of the thugs with a visible penis.

Questionable Consent: Depending on how much you believe the Mask influences the wearer. Tim has sex with Tanya while under the Mask's influence, which she didn't realize as he crawled into bed in the dark. It's quite likely she wouldn't have if his appearance was clear to her, though technically this was still her husband. However this leads to the conception of her son, with Loki pointing out that kind of makes him a dad so there's the implication that he may be a Child by Rape.

comment
Deadpan Snarker: Loki is frequently bitter and sarcastic, especially toward his father, Odin. "I'm a god of friggin' mischief. What did you expect?" "You always set me up to fail. At least in that respect, I'm living up to your expectations."

Ms. Fanservice: A bespectacled woman wears a slinky black kitty-cat costume to the office Halloween party, to which the professional and monogamous Tim as the mask does a wild take on her. In order to bring her out of her shell, Tim wraps the woman up like a mummy, spins her into a tornado, thereby unraveling her, ultimately changing her costume into a red swimsuit. Tim's best friend, Jorge (Kal Penn) catches the woman as she falls, following up on a romance that was only barely briefed on before.

Victimized Bystander: Pretty much everyone that happens to be in Loki's way as he tries to find the mask. During the film he rips the face off a man in the museum, traumatizes a nurse by transforming into a copy of her, transforms a neighbor's head into a giant nose, sucks up a woman in a giant vacuum cleaner and attaches a plunger to a man's face so tightly that the skin stretches out when he tries to pull it off. None of these characters are ever shown again.

Shout-Out
 Son of the Mask / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: Tons and tons of 'em. Tim Avery's name is an homage to cartoonist Tex Avery. Tim's dog is named Otis, an homage to The Adventures of Milo and Otis due to Stanley's dog being named Milo. Alvey transforms into Woody Woodpecker at one point in the movie, and is seen watching several famous cartoons, including the Chuck Jones short One Froggy Evening, The Flintstones, and Transformers: Armada. Alvey's head spins all the way around, like in The Exorcist when he says that he'll take Alvey to an exorcist. While still in the womb, Alvey performs the Cuban Pete song. The fights between Alvey and Otis are very reminiscent of the old Wile E. Coyote / Road Runner cartoons, down to Otis sketching his plans on a blueprint exactly like the ones Wile E. used. While wearing the Mask, Tim does impressions of Mel Gibson ("Gimme back my son!"), Ozzy Osbourne (in a deleted scene), some kind of Neil Diamond / Tom Jones lounge singer hybrid, Al Pacino in Scarface ("Say hello to my little friend!"), not to mention of Jim Carrey himself ("Ssssmokin! ...causes cancer!") "And then Loki said, let there be a brick wall..." Believe it or not, the "Can't Take My Eyes Off of You" sequence was taken right from one of the Mask miniseries, one of the few things they did take.

Continuity Snarl: When Otis puts on the mask, he's able to stay masked-up even during daylight hours, when the first movie demonstrated that the mask's powers only activated at night. Now to be fair, this change was also present in the animated series based on the original film.

Artistic License – Geography: OK, so, Fringe City is located 270 milesnote 435 kilometers southwest of Edge City. Stanley Ipkiss tossed the Mask into the ocean ten years previously. At the start of the movie, it's floating upriver near Tim's home. So, to recap: not only did the Mask float the wrong way up the river, it also took ten years to travel 270 miles. And it's going at about five miles per hournote 8 kilometers per hour.

Suspiciously Similar Substitute: Like Stanley from the first movie, Tim is a Manchild who feels underappreciated in his job with an attractive blonde woman as his significant other and a brown and white Jack Russel Terrier. Otis, Tim's dog, even ends up wearing the Mask just like Milo did in the first movie.
