He's Ace Ventura: Pet Detective. The Ace is on the case to find the Miami Dolphins' missing mascot and quarterback Dan Marino. He goes eyeball to eyeball with a man-eating shark, stakes out the Miami Dolphins and woos and wows the ladies. Whether he's undercover, under fire or underwater, he always gets his man… or beast!

This movie has got to be one of the best Jim Carrey comedies out there. Such a quotable movie. Absolutely legendary. One big plot hole is that Dan Marino could just testify against Finkle and ace ventura would be free, but I’ll let it pass because it’s a comedy.
