Jim Carrey plays Ace Ventura a man who will find your lost pets for you. When the Miami Dolphins mascot (a real dolphin, as if you couldn't guess) is dolphin napped he is hired and must get to the bottom of it and find out where it is, who has it and why they took it.
I watched this years ago a couple of times and I was younger, and even then this movie did nothing for me. It is way over the top cheesy and just not my thing. I never liked the kind of comedy that uses stupid antics and characters to make you laugh. I mightve laughed or grinned at best a few times while watching this film, but I think it is stupid.
I like Jim Carrey and think he's a funny person and love his old stand up, but his early movies like this and Mask were just too cheesy for me. I see a movie like this being good for kids, only they try to aim it at adults and make it PG-13 which kills the young kid audience from seeing it and to me they are the only ones who would get it and actually find it funny.
Carrey is a good actor but does nothing for me here, Courtney Cox is a dry boring actress too. Tone Loc was still able to get work back then and he was thrown in the cast, but does nothing for me. Dan Marino can't act and sports figures shouldn't try, Sean young sucks and the casting was bad. I loved tiny roles featuring the great Randall Tex Cobb and Alice Drummond. The directing was crap as well as all production values.. I did love that Carrey insisted on having his favorite band Cannibal Corpse involved in the movie.. They are great.
I don't find this film offers anything. Stupid over the top acting by Carrey and just way too childish, its bad. 1/10 STARS
