Ace Ventura: Pet Detective (1994)

The movie that turned Jim Carrey from In Living Color sketch player into a movie star, and still the purest dose of his physical comedy: the hair, the walk, the talking backside. The plot, about a missing Miami Dolphins mascot, is just a frame for him. Know before you press play that the finale's big reveal is built on a joke about a transgender character that plays badly now. If you can watch past it, this is Carrey's style in its most concentrated form.
