Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls Ratings & Reviews
- ርልዪረFebruary 7, 2025I have never laughed so hard before in my life like I did after watching this film. Great family fun from beginning to end. Ace Ventura is totally nuts and gets into alsorts of scraps and trouble. The bit at the beginning with slinky is brilliant. His love for all animals creates lots of chaos. One definitely to watch.
- DANNYZUKO78April 12, 2026AS SOMEONE WHO LOVES THE ONE WITH JIM CARREY AND COURTENEY COX I MISS HER BUT FOR THE THINGS YOU CAN'T SAY TODAY JUST DON'T THINK ABOUT IT. IT'S A THING OF THE TIME. I JUST ACT LIKE IT'S THE 90S AND IT'S A VERY FUNNY MOVIE....
- Richard ThorntonJuly 22, 2025This film contains one of the single funniest scenes in any movie. Gets hot in those rhinos.
- MarkAugust 31, 2025Got this film spot on. Best man to play the part
- RichardOctober 19, 2025Jim Carrey returns as Ace Ventura, summoned from a Tibetan ashram to solve the mystery of a missing sacred bat in the jungles of Africa. The plot? Barely matters. It’s a vehicle for Carrey’s elastic face, animal obsession and slapstick chaos. The film leans hard into cartoon logic: Ace births himself from a mechanical rhino, slides down temple steps like a slinky and causes tribal warfare with nothing but a bad attitude and a better hairstyle. It’s louder, weirder and more unhinged than the first film. Critics hated it. I loved it. It’s the kind of sequel that knows it’s ridiculous and doesn’t care.
- MugenSamaFebruary 21, 2026B.E.A.utiful
- thomasrogers753January 23, 2026Jim Carrey you tried so hard to make this movie work, maybe a little to hard at times
- DdoughnutJune 16, 2025Why was this movie so friggin weird?
- RecordedsnakeDecember 28, 2025Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls is pure Jim Carrey chaos at its best. The film fully embraces absurd humour and over-the-top physical comedy, delivering iconic, laugh-out-loud moments throughout. It’s loud, silly, and unapologetically ridiculous, and that’s exactly why it works as a timeless feel-good comedy.
- JakeysDecember 24, 2025I think this one is maybe slightly better than the first, but I can't bring myself to give it more than three stars.
- Walter Jospeh KovacsOctober 22, 2025I enjoyed the first one (recently as well) and I really like Jim Carrey but for some reason, couldn't quite engage with this one. Maybe it was 'too wacky' or too many jokes repeated from the first.
- Nathaniel “KingBear” ReifenheiserOctober 4, 2025If you love Jim Carrey, you’ll probably love this movie. If you can’t stand him, you hated it. Simple as that. Personally, I’m in the first camp — his commitment is so over-the-top it makes the absurdity brilliant. The original Ace Ventura was the launchpad, but this sequel? So bad it’s beautiful. Thirty years later I still catch myself yelling “CHICAGO!” like a lunatic. Critics trashed it, which is why it earns a place of honor in my 5/10 zone. Honestly, if I were being fair, it’s more of a 7 — but the 5/10 slot is for movies I actually rewatch, movies that are terrible and amazing at the same time. The plot? Ace has trauma, hides in a monastery, gets lured back into the world, and somehow winds up in Africa birthing himself from a mechanical rhino while preventing tribal war. It makes no sense. But if you liked the first one, you’ll love this.
- wf625June 30, 2025It’s pretty good I think the first one was a lot better, but this movie is still enjoyable.
- GypsyGirl2023June 18, 2025Great movie! Love Jim Carrey! Not as good as Pet Detective but still funny as always!
- kiwiflyboyMay 5, 2025Good classic laugh
