He embodied Count Olaf SOOOOOOO well. If anyone has ever read the book they'll know that he brought him to life perfectly. He also made a perfect Grinch. For the the most rewatchable is Me Myself and Irene but that's probably because thats the one I've seen the most out of all of his movies. He's got a ton of classics. One of my favorite actors ever!

I love Jim Carrey's roles from how unique are all entertaining but yet so memorable that he nails all of them. Which I'm glad this video shows the reasons why he's my favorite movie actor of all time!
I wish he would do more dramatic roles. There's just something about a comedian absolutely killing a dramatic role such as Robin Williams, Adam Sandler and so on...

#1 Jim Carrey Character: Jim Carrey
It’s never a dull moment with Jim Carrey. That’s why I watch The Grinch every Christmas.
The Grinch is by far one of his best films. This is especially true when he impersonates Ron Howard. When he ad-libbed, it's all him. Yes, a Top 10 Jim Carrey quotes.

Ron Howard and Jim Carrey really did take the character and breathe new life into it, that's for sure. i've not even seen the Illumination version, in fact i mean not to, just because it seems like an unnecessary re-remake, i mean the live action one was only 20 years ago, not THAT old to warrant it.

I will forever love jim carrey ever since i saw the mask he have been one my favorite actor
He is definitely my top actor of all time. I'm very excited to see what he is going to do next.
Having 20 greatest roles is huge by itself and Carrey makes it look easy.

The Truman Show is one of my all time favorite films, the way Jim Carrey portrays the main character is beautiful.
I discovered Jim Carrey in The Mask when I was 8, and again at 19 in Eternal Sunshine ❤️
The scene at 9:50 was a time when Jim Carrey legit forgot his line, and it was so classic Jim that they decided to just keep it in there.
I mean quotes by this man's characters could easily be a top 50 list.
Early also Jim Carrey is the best actor 👏🏻👏🏻💀
Jim Carrey as Dr. Robotnik was the perfect casting choice like Tom Holland as Spider-Man or Steve Carell as Michael Scott
Ace Ventura is definitely my favorite Jim Carey character. And I would definitely watch a Top 10 List of quotes!
This man made my childhood Thank you for all the memories
i admire Jim Carrey's work- not invested, but would love to hear some of his best quotes. with both personality development quirks and sharing the same birth month, i find him quite relatable!
My favorite characters are Ace Ventura, Stanley Ipkiss/The Mask, Dr. Eggman Robotnik and the Cable Guy.
"SOMEBODY STOP ME!" *is almost completely inactive until Sonic the Movie*
It has to be the mask for me 😁Jim Carrey is absolutely hilarious in it, and I never stopped laughing all the way through 🤣 genius.

it was okay, it was more him voicing the character rather than BEING the character, ya know? he wasnt really able to put his full energy into it and make it his because he didnt have creative liberties. dont get me wrong he voiced it pretty well, but it just wasnt a Carrey role.

Yes, I would certainly be interested in a feature about Jim Carrey movie character quotes if WatchMojo ever decides to make it, simply because I've always admired him, both as an entertainer and as a person. This is a personal quote from Jim Carrey that I took to heart and saved while I was reading an article/interview about him approximately 10+ years ago: "The best possible thing you can get out of a relationship is that you're with somebody who encourages you to be the best version of yourself." - Jim Carrey

This man in Ace Ventura!!!! CLASSIC!!!!
Fire Marshall Bill was my introduction to Jim Carey. Ace Ventura is the greatest character that he has played!
The Grinch is my favorite character. Enough said.
My favourite character played by Jim Carry is the Grinch. He is the best one and Eggman. And I love he’s quotes like “it was me” “smite me almighty smiter” and most of his quotes as Eggman.
Made our parents laugh. Made us laugh. Will make our children laugh. Jim Carrey is the greatest comedic actor ever
There's just too many good ones! I even love some of the hated darker ones like "The Number 29" and "Dark Crimes".
I don't know about most rewatchable but I think his first film where he played a dead rock star that ODed.
My favourite all time Jim carrey role was the mask but the grinch made me fall in love with his acting as a kid so it holds a special place in my hart
Ace Ventura takes the 🥇🏆 for me, but as far as quotes go, I just love " SMITE ME, OH MIGHTY SMITTER!!" " OMG!!! EINHORN IS A MAN!!" "SOMEBODY STOP ME" "What's the matter, my little p***yfart?" "HERE SHE COMES TO WRECK THE DAAYYYY!!!!" I just can't choose one 🤣🤣🤣 my favorite actor ❤️
I have all jim carry movies in my Mac and I watch them frequently, depending on the mood I want to be in, that day
Jim Carrey is the Best comedian best actor the best I've ever seen in my life he is wonderful why haven't we seen him in something new lately has he stopped acting if anybody can let me know please do but he is the number one comedian number one actor with me I would love to meet this man he's wonderful thanks Jim Carrey for all the last you have given to me each and every time I watch you Happy New year
