If you have seen "The Truman Show", you will like "Pleasantville" because both are similar but not essentially the same. The main character(s) is trapped inside a TV show, but here they are sure about it than the doubtful Jim Carey. A brother-sister twins gets transported to a 50's sitcom, where everything is black and white and people who populate are innocents. They don't even use a toilet. The basketball team never misses the loop even during practice sessions. I can go on, but that would be revealing major interesting scenes of this movie.
The twins try to gel along the environment. But the sister hates the goofy goodness surrounding her. Both inadvertently start questioning and providing some insights on the world outside. As one-by-one the characters experience a change in themselves, they turn into color while the other less enlightened people start seeing them as a threat to their existence.
The stunning scenes are when each color change happens and the reaction it gets from others. Its really a fun to watch those. When everything surrounding them changes, the twins remain in black and white and they don't know why. Then they realize that though they induce most of the changes, they remain unchanged for most part and start searching within themselves. When they gain the missing part of their lives, bingo...comes the color.
