Separated @ Birth?

I'm also Pro-Jim Carrey, but you're leaving yourself wide-open there, Kodiak. :^)

I'm struggling to remember what comedies Jim Carrey has ever done that were any good.

[sarcasm_made_Easy]

dont worry your not going senile. he has never done anything worth watching

[Moose]

I liked Man on the Moon & Eternal Sunshine, but he's never done a decent comedy, that's for damn sure.

Truman Show was a bit meh, but for Jim Carrey, that's a huge step forward.

It's weird how he turned out to be a better dramatic actor than comedian (for what that's worth).

I liked those first 2 you mentioned too.

Not that weird. Many directors cast comedians in dramatic roles for their versatility, Robin Willimas being a perfect example. Most actors will tell you comedy is harder than drama. And while Jim Carrey's never really made a good comedy movie, he is funny, just not as funny as he thinks.

I'm gonna stick my neck out and stand up for both Ace Venturas and Dumb and Dumber. Good, solid comedies, the both of 'em. :^)

I think Jim Carrey is extremely gifted at physical comedy.  My problem with him is that he rarely harnesses that gift.  He's turned up to 11 all the time, whether in his films or in interviews.  It gives me the impression that he's just so painfully desperate to be loved that he's spent years standing in front of the mirror perfecting this whacked out persona.  That seems more sad than funny to me.

He's completely masked off his human side with this huge collection of tics and vocal affectations.  His characters come off the same way; which is fine if he's playing a character that's purposely farcical like Ace Ventura, but extremely distracting if he's playing somebody you're supposed to be relating to.

Y'know, I really think that's just the way he is. I've known people who are constantly acting like that, even out of the public eye. That's not to say they are trying too hard to be noticed, they are just that way.

I seem to recall seeing him on - I'm afraid to admit - Oprah years ago, where he opened up for the first time about his shitty childhood. I forget the specifics, but his manic antics made perfect sense for a guy desperate for the world to love him. I think he's filled that void with piles and piles of money by now, so he's settled down and can act like a (relatively) normal person now.

Funny thing is, when searching for the right Vincent D'Onofrio pic, I discovered that's the only face he makes:




You're not Zoolander, Vincent. Try another one.
