I've never been much of a fan, even before he turned into a giant elitist douche. Looking through his movies on IMDb, there are a handful, like Truman Show, that I've enjoyed, but really only one that stands out - The Majestic.
His over the top comedic style does not work for me. Never did. [Reply]

I can't make it through 3 minutes of a rewatch of Ace. Funny then, cringe now. Dumb and Dumber still holds up. Cable Guy had quite the evil undertones.
You might like Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind. My favorite of his. And the subject matter is cool.
Not sure how you'd peg him as an "elitist". [Reply]

He's one of those bigtime antigun guys who wants to disarm everybody except his private security guys. I hate hypocrites. I and everybody else who can't afford to hire our own goon squads deserve the same right to personal protection that he does.
He was pretty vocal about it at one time, but either he's chilled out or his rantings are no longer newsworthy. I don't know, and I don't care. Fuck him. [Reply]

Agree with this. He’s a Canadian citizen who made it big in the USA and then starts bad mouthing a president and goes gaga over liberals agenda. Fuck him!
And IMO he hasn’t been funny since in living color. [Reply]
Favorite Jim Carrey movies:
The Cable Guy - darkly funny as hell
Ace Ventura Pet Detective - stupid toilet humor, but that dude was just hilarious in that
The Mask - yes, I liked it. Also, Cameron Diaz was SMOKIN'...
The Truman Show - Funny and touching, have not seen it in years but I remember liking it
Liar Liar - Just funny stuff in that, and also kinda nice ending
Me, Myself and Irene - I laughed my ass off watching that. Loved the dual characters.
Other than those, I don't know how many of his movies I've watched, never bothered with the "serious" ones. Too bad he's batshit crazy, but the talented ones usually are. [Reply]
