Editorial Reviews: Amazon.co.uk Review The 1994 box-office hit that turned comedy maniac Jim Carrey into Hollywood's first $20-million man, this gag-filled no-brainer stars Carrey as the titular rubber-faced gumshoe who tracks down lost pets for his heartbroken clients. Ace's latest case involves the apparent kidnapping of the Miami Dolphins' team mascot, Snowflake the dolphin. His investigation is a source of constant aggravation for Miami police lieutenant Lois Einhorn (Sean Young), who turns out to be packing more than a pistol under her skirt. iFriends/i fans will appreciate the presence of Courtney Cox, who remains admirably straight-faced as the Dolphins' publicist and Ace's would-be girlfriend, but of course it's Carrey who steals the show with shameless abandon. Carrey's hyper antics made iAce Ventura: Pet Detective/i one of the bestselling videos of the 1990s. p This inevitable sequel finds Jim Carrey reprising his role as the world's greatest pet detective. His latest case, the disappearance of a rare African white bat, draws him out of his spiritual retreat at a Tibetan monastery following the tragic outcome of his previous case. That traumatic experience, which makes for a hilarious opening-scene send-up of the Stallone thriller iCliffhanger/i, prompts Ace to venture to Africa, where he goes native with the tribe that hired him to find their symbolic bat. From that point anything goes, with Carrey pushing the boundaries of good taste (what, you were expecting good taste?) up to and including his now-infamous "birth" scene from the backside of a mechanical rhinoceros. Hey, don't be ashamed if you find yourself laughing. i--Jeff Shannon/i

Delso 1 out of 1 found this review helpful The two Ace Ventura DVDs came in a budget package, which I decided to get when I realised my 12-year old had never seen Carrey in his earlier manifestation. br / br /I reckoned, rightly, that the combination of physical humour, slapstick and mild smut would appeal and, in fact, we all sat through them in frequent fits of laughter, as did her schoolmates. br / br /A little low-budget compared to 'The Mask' or 'The Truman Show', but worth owning - especially the first one. Classic film...always a winner!! February 9, 2009 J. E. Davies (Bristol, UK) Great film bought for my fiance as a Chritmas present! br /We have watched one film out of the box set but can't wait to watch the other one!!! Brillinat classic film, esp if you like Jim Carrey!!! :) br / Who Couldnt Love This May 11, 2009 Ms. Ceilidh Lipp (UK) It's Jim Carrey at his best! br /i've watched both of these dvd's at least 15-20 times and i still find myself laughing out loud. Now maybe people would argue this may be due to my taste in humour. But i dare anyone to watch it and not laugh at least once. Its not even just laughing its laughing with tears streaming down your cheeks. Great Service November 28, 2009 Kirsten Bittles (UK) I ordered these DVD's on the 27th of November in the morning and they were here first thing on the 28th! Great service.
