Task: Sentiment Analysis
Input (English): i 've got to admit it . . .
i 'm a huge jim carrey fan .
i loved the first ace ventura , as well as the mask and dumb and dumber -- and even in batman forever ( which was a pretty awful movie ) , carrey was one of the few people to come off looking reasonably good .
until i saw ace ventura 2 , i had no idea how people could find the guy annoying .
sadly , ace ventura 2 shows
just how irritating and annoying carrey can be .
carrey goes through the same schtick
he went through in the first ace movie , but this time
it is no longer funny -- it is just a rehash of many of the same jokes used in ace i .
the plot sees pet detective ace ventura retiring after failing to save a raccoon ( in a reasonable cliffhanger spoof ) .
soon he is called out of retirement to find a bat which was kidnapped and , if not returned in four days , will cause two warring african tribes to destroy each other .
once again , it 's up to ace to save the day , using his uncanny detective skills .
those who have been disappointed by carrey 's more restrained roles in the films following the first ace ventura may be glad to see him over - acting to the best of his ability , but some may be disappointed by the fact that this sequel does n't capture the feel of the original .
the original benefited from what looked to be carrey 's constant hyped - up improv sequences , which were hysterically funny .
here , however , the tighter script ( which is reminiscent of the old disney telemovies ) takes the improvised material from the first , and
shamelessly recycles it in the new movie , giving carrey little chance to improvise .
instead , his extremely funny manner has been reduced to just walking around stupidly .
but one of the biggest problems
i had was with the character of ventura himself .
in the first movie , he was always cool , and one step ahead of every one else -- perfect for carrey 's off - the - wall approach .
but here , ventura is made to look a lot stupider , and is often made out as the straight guy -- a role which is definitely not carrey 's style .
there are definitely some very funny moments , but they are few and far between .
they are also nowhere near as funny as anything carrey did in the first ace ventura , or even dumb and dumber .
