Having forgotten pretty much everything about Ace Ventura: Pet Detective I tried to watch it with my nephews and immediately had to turn it off lol
That was 1994 (question is about the 2000s)
The other thing about it now is they cut the scene in every version of the film that establishes Ace is using his "powers" for good: when he pretends to be a trainer of dolphins to head off the reporters. Without that scene, he's just an asshole the whole film.
Ace Ventura: Heinz Getwellvet. I am trainer of dolphins. You want to talk to de dolphin, you talk to me.
Reporter #1: What happened to the regular trainer?
Ace Ventura: Vat happened to him? Vat happened to me? Seven years I am wit Siegfried.
[he holds up only four fingers]
Ace Ventura: Ve are making de dolphins disappear, und den Roy is coming wit ze tiger und ze shtuffing in de pants und den I'm gone.
Reporter #2: [skeptically] Where is Snowflake?
Ace Ventura: Why do you care about Snowflake? Do you know him? Does he call you at home?
[shouts]
Ace Ventura: Do you have a dorsal fin? To train ze dolphin you must zink like ze dolphin! You must be getting inside ze dolphin's head. I am saying to Snowflake, "Akay!... Akay Akay Akay?" und he is saying "AKay Akay!" und he is up on ze tail "Eeeeeeeeee!" und you can quote him!
[Ace spits]
Immediately?
Is there anything bad about it until the very end when he gets the clue about the chief?
Also, there still are people like that. It's just unfortunate that it's the main character.
Yeah, this did not age wellwhere the bad guy is intra conversion trans.
Not a good look now.,
Pet Detective aged like milk. When Nature Calls is still classic.
It's in the bone!
It's dumb slapstick comedy, then and now. OP's tastes changed.
Three darts is too much...
And now... A YAK! YaaaaaAAAK. YAAAaaaaAAK. YAAK!
It was shit when it came out
Laces out!
