Reviews
Btexxamar I like Black Panther, but I didn't like this movie.
Stephan Hammond It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
Tayyab Torres Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
Payno I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

saschamuelhausen Super funny, great detective story and very entertaining
areatw 'Ace Venture: Pet Detective' would have been a total disaster without someone with the talent of Jim Carrey in the lead role. The concept behind this movie is weak and poorly executed, with way too few ideas. Carrey makes it watchable - his energy and enthusiasm alone is enough to keep the viewer watching in spite of the inadequate storyline.I was surprised to learn that 'Ace Ventura' was released in the same year as Carrey's career best movie 'Dumb and Dumber' and there are certainly parallels between Lloyd and the pet detective. Carrey really is the best at playing silly, goofy characters. 'Ace Ventura' turned out okay but I dread to think what it would have been like with somebody else other than Carrey as the detective.
Chris Windus I expected big things from this film. Everyone I know who has seen Ace Ventura raves on about how it is a "Must See Movie'. Is it though? Well, sorta. The film is VERY funny, but nearly all of the comedy stems from one man, Jim Carrey. Thankfully, and unsurprisingly, Carrey's performance is spot on. Like always, his unique comic style makes us laugh, and his incredible and over-the-top performance makes this film. Jim Carrey is the strongest presence on the screen, and thats not a bad thing, but it does overshadow the rest of the characters. What makes this film good is Jim Carrey, and that's the problem. The Story doesn't stand out on its own, and is hindered by a fair few outrageous plot devices, which is only saved by Carrey's equally as outrageous body language. None of the other characters made me laugh, and in a comedy that is a problem. Its not like the rest of the actors do a poor job, but there average performance is buried under loads and loads of Carrey's insane dialogue. However, Jim Carrey is still widely entertaining and hilarious. I genuinely laughed throughout this film, and would defiantly rate it much better then many other comedies out there. This might as well be a Jim Carrey solo performance, but at least he is funny enough and has a strong enough stage presence to really make this movie laugh-out-loud good.
