49. Ace Ventura: Pet Detective (1994)
One of Jim Carrey’s greatest comedies has to be this one. Ace is a pet detective that also acts like an animal (as well as a criminal). Want to know something interesting about Carrey’s role?
Jim Carrey added the distinct voice and the manner in which Ace Ventura speaks only after several read-throughs of the script. Carrey would use the voice in his stand-up routine. “All righty then” was a catchphrase of one of his characters and after the lines from the script didn’t feel right to him, he added it.
The next comedy at #48 is a western spoof from 1974. Try and guess which movie it is before clicking next!
