Description: A goofy
detective (Jim Carrey) specializing in animals goes in search of the missing
mascot of the Miami Dolphins.
Review: If you say 90s comedy, you think of Jim Carrey. He was all over the 90s
with fun comedy films. And in my opinion, this is the funnies of them all.
Carrey plays the titular Ace
Ventura, who works as a detective, specializing in animal cases. He is hired to
find the mascot for the Miami Dolphins: dolphin Snowflake who was stolen from
his tank. In search he gets helps from Melissa, who works for the Dolphins and
she does everything she can to help Ace on his quest. And while the local
police force is in the dark and loathes the unorthodox investigative methods of
the animal detective, Ace is getting closer and closer to the truth. All the
while, police detective Lois Einhorn is doing everything she can to thwart him.
Still, that doesn’t stop Ace from continuing his sleuthing with a good dose of
humor and disdain for the detectives investigating the Snowflake case.
Jim Carrey is great and only
Jim Carrey can do what he does in this film. The film is funny from start to
finish. His goofy voices and his signature facial expressions are hilarious.
The scenes with the sliding door, the insane asylum and where is trying to find
the missing championship ring are all memorable and humorous. “Ace Ventura: Pet
Detective” is one of the funniest movies ever.
