    A shy bank clerk named Stanley Ipkiss discovers an ancient wooden mask that transforms him into a confident, zoot-suited, green-faced character with supernatural powers and a mischievous personality. The story explores themes of self-confidence, personal transformation, and the duality of human nature as Stanley navigates romance, crime, and his newfound abilities. The film features slapstick comedy and cartoonish violence typical of 1990s action-comedies, with Stanley's love interest being a nightclub singer involved with gangsters.
