To be a Pet Detective, you have to understand both the criminals and animals. Ace Ventura goes even further... He behaves like a criminal animal. When a football team's mascot (a dolphin) is stolen just before the Superbowl, Ace Ventura is put on the case. Now, who would want to steal a dolphin, and why?
Leave your thoughts about Ace Ventura: Pet Detective.
| Washington PostRita KempleyA riot from start to finish, Carrey's first feature comedy is as cheerfully bawdy as it is idiotically inventive. |
| Los Angeles TimesChris WillmanAce Ventura: Pet Detective marks the ascendance of a new star in film farce, as Jim Carrey elevates this stupid, suprisingly shoddy picture into the comedy stratosphere, mainly thanks to his Gumby-like ability to contort his face and body in the most amazing ways. |
| Washington PostDesson ThomsonTreat this project as you would a safari: It has its slow parts but the wildlife makes it worthwhile. |
| Reel Film ReviewsDavid Nusair...it's certainly not difficult to see why Carrey was almost immediately launched into superstardom after its 1994 release. |
| USA TodaySusan WloszczynaThe movie has the metabolism, logic and attention span of a peevish 6-year-old. |
| Deseret News (Salt Lake City)Chris HicksA little of Jim Carrey's mugging goofiness goes a long way.... and 90 minutes is way too much. |
| rec.arts.movies.reviewsDragan AntulovOne of those films that explain why some critics don't like Carrey. |
| EmpireJulian KetchumNeither terrible, boring nor soporific, just not very funny. |
| VarietySteven GaydosSeemingly clueless as to how best to utilize Carrey, or make humorous hay out of its pet-loving shamus' central character, Ventura fails to place either Carrey or Ace in the winner's circle of memorable screen crazies. |
| ReelViewsJames BerardinelliFrom the start, it's obvious that this is a vehicle for his comedy, and it mostly works -- for about ten to fifteen minutes. After that, Carrey's act gradually grows less humorous and more tiresome, and the laughter in the audience seems forced. |
