Ace Ventura, Pet Detective

|
Ace Ventura, Pet Detective is a 1994 wacky comedy movie, directed by Tom Shadyac. It starred Jim Carrey, Courteney Cox, Sean Young and Dan Marino, among others.
The story follows the adventures of Ace Ventura, a detective who specializes in cases involving pet animals, in his search for "Snowflake", the missing mascot of the Miami Dolphins.
The film was largely responsible for launching Carrey's film career, following the exposure he received as part of the cast of the TV show In Living Color.
The death metal band Cannibal Corpse appeared for a brief cameo, at Carrey's request.
The movie had a successful sequel Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls (1995) starring Jim Carrey and directed by Steve Oedekerk. In this, Ace Ventura investigates the disappearance of a rare white bat in Africa.
There was an Ace Ventura cartoon on Nickelodeon, but it lasted only two episodes, an unqualified disaster. Carrey's film career took up too much time.
