Well...no...he portrays a character, comedic characters, that's why there are similarities. His real self,... he is not some none stop funny guy, in person. He is very serious and pretty dark guy, with really dark inner demons (thou he is much better now, but i think its a process that lasts a life time) with lots of smart stuff to say, a real thinker. He loves to create art, to paint, draw, etc. etc. Haves an opinion on many things, is very loud with his opinions and isn't afraid to say stuff out loud. - there's the work personality and the real personality
Jim Carrey is an excellent comic actor, he shows it in: - Dumb and Dumber - Ace Ventura 1 and 2 - liar Liar - Bruce Almighty - Me, myself and Irene But he is also an excellent dramatic actor, he shows it in: - The Truman show - Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind - man on the moon
You have no idea how much of an influence this movie had on me as a kid in the 90’s. My friends and I all grew up watching Looney Tunes and Jim Carrey, so this movie was perfect for us. This is also the movie that Cameron Diaz made her acting debut in, and my god did I have a huge crush on her as a kid.
NGL The first time I saw this when I was little, I really never knew how fine Cameron Diaz was in the movie and I used to had a crush on her too. The only other film I saw that introduced me to her was Shrek, & she’s the voice of Princess Fiona.
What's crazy is it almost didn't happen. The casting director for Jurassic Park auditioned Carrey several times for the role of Ian Malcolm before Spielberg gave the role to Jeff Goldblum.
And Liar Liar. Best of his later movies. Eternal Sunshine of Spotless mind his best drama role, followed by Truman Show. Of course, his original classics are great, too.
You know, without this film, you may never have heard of Cameron Diaz. She didn't work her way up into celebrity status by doing a heap of low budget films first, THIS was her first ever role.
Which is impressive because she had one of the most important roles. Usually those only go to the high pay actors, that was the beauty of the 90's I suppose.
Based on a true story. Jeffrey McDonald. It was "a curly haired" man. They changed it to one armed to make it more dramatic. McDonald still imprisoned. It's an insane story and injustice.
I was going to mention the TV show when I saw your comment. You beat me to the comment. Due to my age, I have fond memories of the TV show, not so much the movie.
Wasn't that "You love me, you really love me!" thing a reference to Sally Field when she won some award? I never saw it myself, or got what the big deal was, but she really took a roasting for that for a long time after.
@@myTERAexperience Jeffrey McDonald - oooh I remember that. Husband, father, and military dude accused of killing his wife and two little daughters. Yeah, that was quite the hot story back in, what was it, 1985 or thereabouts? I saw the TV movie - Fatal Vision (or something like that?), I think it was Gary Cole playing McDonald. I should revisit that case cos I never really figured if he was actually guilty or not.
IMDb User Ratings: The Mask: 6.9/10 Son of the Mask: 2.2/10 55,000 people gave their rating, and the average was 2.2/10, so it's likely that almost no one else will enjoy it either. Sad.
Jim Carrey's friend in this movie was Richard Jeni, an amazing standup comedian who sadly took his own life. If you ever get the chance, see if you can find some of his clips here on YT.
The reason The Mask often talking to the viewer is because the power of Loki gives the hero the ability to break the fourth wall and see his world like a movie (it's a power of god), and he makes us laugh for a purpose. 😀
The was Cameron Diaz's very first movie. I think we need to recommend more fun movies with romance for you to react to. My suggestions would be Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, and The Princess Bride.
My favorite scene has to be "Cuban Pete." While this movie is a lot of fun, seeing Richard Jeni always makes me sad. He was a brilliant comedian, with "Platypus Man" being my favorite stand-up show. He committed suicide on 10 March 2007 after battling several serious psychological conditions.
So many great lines, such a great cast I can't think of anyone better to play the mask than Jim Carrey. Great reaction I hope you loved this as much as I do.
While combining live actors with cartoons isn’t new in cinema (Disney did it back in the 1920s), the most famous film to do it is Who Framed Roger Rabbit?, which doesn’t do it for some scenes, but for the *entire* movie.
Ooh, that reminds me. While WFRR is much better known (mainly because it's more kid friendly), anyone who hasn't seen Cool World should. Brad Pitt, Kim Bassinger and Gabriel Byrne, I rewatched it recently, and still love it.
My favourite part of the Mask is how no one reacts to him being a living cartoon. He sent a woman into a tornado spin for crying out loud and all the crowd is just looking at him thinking, "Wow he knows how to dance."
The MASK was actually the 2nd of a 1-2 punch that vaulted Jim Carrey to superstardom. Ace Ventura: Pet Detective was the 1st. Those 2 movies released within 5 or 6 months of each other in 1994 and they rocketed Carrey into a top Hollywood box office draw.
This was the very first movie my parents took me to see in theaters. And the whole experience was amazing, although a bit terrifying (it scared me how violent it looked when the mask stars to attach to his face for the first time), and I got so obsessed with it for years! Still a great and fun movie! And Jim Carrey also became one of my favourite actors. Oh, and I guess you didn't recognize the actor but Dorian was also in Pulp Fiction as the cop in the basement scene.
I saw this over 100 times in the theaters when it came out. Such a classic Jim Carrey film! 1994 was his year: Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, Dumb & Dumber, and The Mask.
Hello, Magy. The Mask is legendary. Easily one of Jim Carrey's best movies. This movie had me laughing like crazy and it's very entertaining. Jim Carrey was born to make everyone laugh, born to entertain others, as it comes naturally to him, with tons of charm and charisma. TERRANCE OUT
Love this movie! Totally annoyed my classmates in 9th grade with quotes from this. Such a treat. Thanks for watching. Fun fact: Ariana Grande is a huge fan of him and there is a clip of her meeting him and she totally was about to cry. Joely Fisher is Carrie Fisher's sister aka Princess Leia. Another film where "Loki" was mentioned.
As great as his comedies were, like Ace Ventura, Liar Liar and Cable Guy, his dramatic roles were incredible. Truman Show and Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind especially.
@@bigdream_dreambig I've always felt the same way. I can enjoy over the top humor in small doses, but it's literally every comedy role he's ever had. I've kind of had similar thoughts to Robin Williams too. Love his dramatic roles, but some of his comedy was just too much.
Technically it was Ace Ventura: Pet Detective that became Jim Carrey 's big breakthrough (you should react to that one & the sequel, both funny movies as well 🤣). The Mask is based on a comicbook series that was much darker, several people wore the mask, The Mask was more psychotic (imagine a mix of Jim Carrey's & Dorian's Mask persona) & The Mask wasn't even called The Mask, instead he was known as "The Big Head Killer". There was also an animated series based on the movie & that one was just as great & funny as the movie, definitely worth a watch.
No, it really wasn't. People need to stop talking when they don't know what they're talking about. His first most notable role was in the show 'In Living Color' which was his breakthrough acting role, and his breakthrough movie was 'Once Bitten', followed by 'Earth Girls Are Easy'. Just because not everyone loves them doesn't mean they weren't his first major roles he became noticed in, they're how he got hired for Ace Ventura.
The first Jim Carrey movie I watched was Ace Ventura: Pet Detective. After that, I was hooked to his style of comedy and that movie put him on the map for me.
2:42 _"Cameron Diaz!_ Oh my god! I _love_ her!" As I understand it, she _originally_ auditioned to play a _jazz_ singer in this movie named Tina Carlyle, because she didn't have any previous _acting_ experience. This is the movie that launched her _acting_ career.
Jim Carry was kinda famous before The Mask but he wasn't 'household name' famous. The mask really sent his career flying..aaand now you know why. Also I think my favorite part of this movie has always been 'Googly eye glasses' 'I've never seen those before in my life.' 'bazooka' 'I have a permit for that.'
It was great watching you enjoy this so much! If you haven't watched it yet, _"Last Action Hero"_ was another excellent movie with *lots* of comedy, as well as action! You definitely should watch it! *Enjoy!*
I think I recall Jim Carey saying he's not a fan of doing sequels. In fact the Ace Ventura franchise is the only time I can think of him reprising a role... and he just did one sequel for that.
@@FrancoisDressler I forgot he did Dumb & Dumber. I hadn't seen it though it was the 3rd movie right? I think the 2nd movie had different actors. Anyway, though I think he might do a Sonic sequel his track record for doing sequels is pretty low.
@@dave6270 He said in the 90s that he didn't want to do sequels because he didn't think there was anywhere to take most of his characters after the first film and he'd be bored doing the same thing again. Ace was the exception (because he found the character so fun to play) for about the next twenty years.
Hello magy and once again thanks for another ( as always) awesome reaction video.i remember seeing the mask years ago and I definitely found myself laughing and enjoying it for sure!. I personally think it was one of Jim's best movies and performances.
Jim became famous as a cast member of the tv show In Living Color, skit comedy like SNL where Jim played outrageously odd characters like Fire Marshall Bill, female bodybuilder Vera de Milo and a random guy doing stupid things in the background of on-location news reports appropriately called The Background Guy. He was the John Belushi of his era but without the excessive sex, drugs and drinking lifestyle.
Hi Magy. Another great reaction from yourself and your laughter brought warmth to my heart. Mask was a favourite of mine back in the day. If you want more Carrey being silly, go for both Ace Ventura movies and Liar Liar. Keep up the awesome work. 👍
Amazing film very classic The Mask directed by Chuck Russell starring Jim Carrey and Cameron Diaz (in her film debut). Thank you so much Magic Magy great reaction just excellent😊😊
This movie is so fun to watch! I watch it like once or twice a year and it’s always funny. I find myself saying “Sssssssssamokin!!” or “You can’t make the scene if you don’t have the green” on random occasions 🤣 It’s crazy to think that this movie is based on a comic
That 'Cuban Pete' track was a music video that was on hard rotation on The Box for a minute (thumbs up those who remember The Box and/or saw that music vid)
This is a fun movie. I remember from your reaction to Willow that you like fantasy movies, so here’s a short list you would probably like: Conan the Barbarian, Conan the Destroyer, The Beastmaster, Dragon Heart. Happy viewing.
If you didn't know, The Mask is based on a comic book. The comic was not quite as silly as the movie and there were a number of people who wore the mask, not just Stanley.
I remember watching this in the movie theater. I was in Highschool when it came out back in the day. This along with a few other movies came out Ace Ventura, and Dumb and Dumber all came out in a few months of each other. I remember Jim in his first film Once Bitten but it was In Living Color which finally got him in films like Ace Ventura, The Mask and Dumb and Dumber which really started his career as a film actor. Jim is in Dirty Harry The Deadpool with Clint Eastwood but it's before these films.
Ace Ventura was Jim Carey's breakthrough role. In The Mask, the scenes with him and the dog really give me Ace vibes. I'd say next up: if you want laughs, watch the Ace Ventura movies.
@@carm3d eh... nobody really cares about those movies. Plus Dead Pool automatically now makes ppl think of Ryan Reynolds. Hell... Carey's time in In Living Color was more important to promoting his talent than those films you listed.
@@dave6270 Actually, his breakthrough role was in the TV show 'In Living Color', that's where most people originally knew him from. His first ever acting gig was a TV movie called 'Rubberface' in 1981. His first actual movie was 'All In Good Taste' in 1983. And you're thinking of Deadpool the comic character, the movie carm3d mentioned is called 'The Dead Pool' and has nothing to do with the comic book character, it's a action/crime flick that came out in 1988. And you're absolutely wrong about 'Once Bitten' and 'Earth Girls Are Easy' being movies that nobody cared about. Just because YOU didn't care about them doesn't mean everyone else feels the same, I for once feel absolutely the opposite. So speak for yourself, and don't be out here putting out false information as fact, because it's NOT.
@@killinglonliness88 for a casual fan of Jim Carey, Ace Ventura and In Living Color WERE where he really became more widely known to people. Yes, he had movies before Ace Ventura. Jack Nicholson was in the original Little Shop of Horrors and Chinatown... but how many people nowadays think of those roles over The Shining, Batman, or One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest??? And Deadpool the comic character is what EVERYONE now is thinking about, you idiot, because that is what's in the NOW. Not 1988. And yes, I am right about Once Bitten and Earth Girls are Easy. Earth Girls was a silly movie with an airhead plot. Fun but nothing big. Once Bitten... Jim Carey himself said if people went to see that movie it won't change their lives. Just because you like subpar movies doesn't mean they made Jim Carey a big star. Had he not done Ventura, In Living Color, The Mask... Once Bitten wouldn't be the movie that made him a star. That's a FACT as well as my own opinion. Which happens to be better than your opinion.
This movie was filmed before "Ace Ventura - Pet Detective" but because of the special effects it came out after. Since Jim Carrey was basically a nobody at first his pay for it was quite modest (low), but after Ace Ventura did so well he was able to renegotiate his contract for The Mask before it was released and made a lot more money. "Liar Liar" is another Jim Carrey movie you should see, after "Ace Ventura" (there are two of them).
A lot of people said their funniest moment of the movie was when Milo wore the mask to successfully scare off one of the villains. However, my funniest part was when Dorian (which was also one of the villains) puts on the mask and then dodges all of the bullets fired at him. Then all of those bullets he dodged that he charged up in his mouth comes shooting out of his mouth as a way of killing the main mobster. Also the evil sinister laugh Dorian lets out after killing that main mobster was great.
Was once my fav movie and deffo fav actor. I even took masked Jim character on myself to say fuck you bullies 😅🤣They got so confused and decided I was to weird to bully hahaha. Actually true story here 🤩😚
Oh, no, Magy. Jim Carrey had been well known for _years_ before _this_ movie came along. He first came to the attention of the mainstream American public with a weekly sketch comedy show called _In Living Color._ It was along the same lines as _Saturday Night Live,_ except the episodes were only about half an hour. It also launched the acting careers of several members of the Wayans family, Jamie Foxx, Kim Coles, Thomas Davidson and David Alan Grier as well as the _dancing_ careers of Rosie Perez and Jennifer Lopez.
(At 7:48) I wonder if the mask was based off of Taz the Tasmanian devil considering there are two cameos with Taz on this movie. Well one Cameo appearance and a call back. The Cameo appearance would probably be the "Taz pillow" on his couch. Call back to Taz would be how the Mask's rapid movements and transformation using Taz's signature cyclone.
🎭As I remember it, JC was already well known from TV's "In Living Color" and a lot of his stand-up. You could say everyone was anticipating something like "The Mask" to come out so he could showcase his true talents. The movie was tailored made for him or rather he was tailor made for it. I guess both, but the film we know today would not have been made if it were not for him. 🎭And boy, oh boy ...did he ever show us the true comic genius he was and still to come! Like Robin Williams, he will always be known as one of a kind. I knew you would love it! And as usual ...I enjoyed it with you. 🎭Thanks❗😂🤗🤯🤪😵🥴🥶🤣
As Milo the dog might say, Grrrrrrrreat reaction. I always remember the Making of The Mask where Jim Carrey jokingly asked the special effects people if he had left enough room for the dinosaurs (Jurassic Park had just come out and computer graphics were everywhere). If you want to see a good dog actor, watch As Good As It Gets. Thanks for this reaction video.
"Smoking it's party time P.A.R.T WHY because I gonna" I couldn't stop laughing either when I first watched The Mask this film also marks Cameron Diaz film debut
This is Jim Carrey playing himself for 2 hours, with or without the mask. Even funnier thinking about it )
Same with Liar Liar lol
You could say the same about Ace Ventura, both of them.
Well...no...he portrays a character, comedic characters, that's why there are similarities.
His real self,... he is not some none stop funny guy, in person. He is very serious and pretty dark guy, with really dark inner demons
(thou he is much better now, but i think its a process that lasts a life time) with lots of smart stuff to say, a real thinker.
He loves to create art, to paint, draw, etc. etc. Haves an opinion on many things,
is very loud with his opinions and isn't afraid to say stuff out loud. - there's the work personality and the real personality
@@LegoGBlok Wow dude
@@LegoGBlok Agree. The need to entertain comes from sadness.
Jim Carrey is an excellent comic actor, he shows it in:
- Dumb and Dumber
- Ace Ventura 1 and 2
- liar Liar
- Bruce Almighty
- Me, myself and Irene
But he is also an excellent dramatic actor, he shows it in:
- The Truman show
- Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
- man on the moon
all of which are funny
He was Ed Nigma / The Riddler in Batman Forever
The Number 23 is also a great thriller/drama performance by him.

Oh yes please ;D its so good. And its not only funny but also teared me up in between.
or both Ace Ventura movies =:D...if u wanna talk about JC classics
And Liar Liar. Best of his later movies. Eternal Sunshine of Spotless mind his best drama role, followed by Truman Show. Of course, his original classics are great, too.

That clint Eastwood reference gets me every time i watch this."do you feel lucky?Punks!!".
The reason The Mask often talking to the viewer is because the power of Loki gives the hero the ability to break the fourth wall and see his world like a movie (it's a power of god), and he makes us laugh for a purpose. 😀

@@lapelcelery42 he was mostly on point about sequels. Besides Ace and Dumb and Dumber, Carry doesn't really do sequels
They really don't make them like they used to 😂😂😂 great reaction Magy 😃
@Magic Magy When I Was Younger This Movie Used To Scare Me But Once I Got Older I Started To Like This Movie With Jim Carrey More and More!
Hello magy and once again thanks for another ( as always) awesome reaction video.i remember seeing the mask years ago and I definitely found myself laughing and enjoying it for sure!. I personally think it was one of Jim's best movies and performances.
One of my fav films all time. Watched it during lock down of 2020 last year & it still holds up
He had three popular movies in 1994: Dumb and Dumber, The Mask, and Ace Ventura: Pet Detective.
Milo's Muttley laughs alone are worth the price of the ticket for the movie.
Jim became famous as a cast member of the tv show In Living Color, skit comedy like SNL where Jim played outrageously odd characters like Fire Marshall Bill, female bodybuilder Vera de Milo and a random guy doing stupid things in the background of on-location news reports appropriately called The Background Guy. He was the John Belushi of his era but without the excessive sex, drugs and drinking lifestyle.
Aww, I Love your Awesome Reaction Magy😁🤗🤗🤧
Hi Magy. Another great reaction from yourself and your laughter brought warmth to my heart. Mask was a favourite of mine back in the day. If you want more Carrey being silly, go for both Ace Ventura movies and Liar Liar. Keep up the awesome work. 👍
This takes me back to child. I love this movie. Jim is amazing actor.
One of the best movies of the 90s and a cornerstone in the Comedy.
If you want to laugh then you should watch “rush hour “
And be sure to watch the after credits scene
The Mask: gets a movie
Mystery Men: get a movie
The Flaming Carrot: Well? We're waiting!
33:52 good 🐕! 34:05-34:07 😆 34:22 🎰 35:51-36:02 flushing 36:22 fun fact: this is Cameron Diaz’s first movie of the mask. 38:11 smokin!
oh geez .. you are picking some wonderful things to react... lOL.. your face is wonderful, you are so genuine. TY FOR THIS ♥
I Love Magy’s Reaction So Much and She’s So Pretty!
Amazing film very classic The Mask directed by Chuck Russell starring Jim Carrey and Cameron Diaz (in her film debut). Thank you so much Magic Magy great reaction just excellent😊😊
This movie is so fun to watch! I watch it like once or twice a year and it’s always funny. I find myself saying “Sssssssssamokin!!” or “You can’t make the scene if you don’t have the green” on random occasions 🤣
It’s crazy to think that this movie is based on a comic
That 'Cuban Pete' track was a music video that was on hard rotation on The Box for a minute (thumbs up those who remember The Box and/or saw that music vid)
This is a fun movie.
I remember from your reaction to Willow that you like fantasy movies, so here’s a short list you would probably like: Conan the Barbarian, Conan the Destroyer, The Beastmaster, Dragon Heart.
Happy viewing.
The Mask with Jim Carrey used to be on all the time since I was a kid in my past since many years ago and it was completely hilarious.
"Can't make the scene if you don't have the green"
- The Mask
26:35 i love how the bars are wide apart to where Ipkiss can fit through
If you didn't know, The Mask is based on a comic book. The comic was not quite as silly as the movie and there were a number of people who wore the mask, not just Stanley.
"Marget You Son Of A Bitch!"
That scene always makes me laugh
"A little bit to the left...Thats it"
I remember watching this in the movie theater. I was in Highschool when it came out back in the day. This along with a few other movies came out Ace Ventura, and Dumb and Dumber all came out in a few months of each other. I remember Jim in his first film Once Bitten but it was In Living Color which finally got him in films like Ace Ventura, The Mask and Dumb and Dumber which really started his career as a film actor. Jim is in Dirty Harry The Deadpool with Clint Eastwood but it's before these films.
Cute bear doll!
15:07 Do any of them understand what the hell is happening?
17:35 Stollen!
21:33 Kellaway has seen this many times before!
Ace Ventura was Jim Carey's breakthrough role. In The Mask, the scenes with him and the dog really give me Ace vibes. I'd say next up: if you want laughs, watch the Ace Ventura movies.
Before Ace Ventura was The Dead Pool, Once Bitten, and Earth Girls are Easy.
@@carm3d eh... nobody really cares about those movies. Plus Dead Pool automatically now makes ppl think of Ryan Reynolds. Hell... Carey's time in In Living Color was more important to promoting his talent than those films you listed.
@@dave6270 Actually, his breakthrough role was in the TV show 'In Living Color', that's where most people originally knew him from. His first ever acting gig was a TV movie called 'Rubberface' in 1981. His first actual movie was 'All In Good Taste' in 1983. And you're thinking of Deadpool the comic character, the movie carm3d mentioned is called 'The Dead Pool' and has nothing to do with the comic book character, it's a action/crime flick that came out in 1988. And you're absolutely wrong about 'Once Bitten' and 'Earth Girls Are Easy' being movies that nobody cared about. Just because YOU didn't care about them doesn't mean everyone else feels the same, I for once feel absolutely the opposite. So speak for yourself, and don't be out here putting out false information as fact, because it's NOT.
@@killinglonliness88 for a casual fan of Jim Carey, Ace Ventura and In Living Color WERE where he really became more widely known to people. Yes, he had movies before Ace Ventura. Jack Nicholson was in the original Little Shop of Horrors and Chinatown... but how many people nowadays think of those roles over The Shining, Batman, or One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest??? And Deadpool the comic character is what EVERYONE now is thinking about, you idiot, because that is what's in the NOW. Not 1988. And yes, I am right about Once Bitten and Earth Girls are Easy. Earth Girls was a silly movie with an airhead plot. Fun but nothing big. Once Bitten... Jim Carey himself said if people went to see that movie it won't change their lives.
Just because you like subpar movies doesn't mean they made Jim Carey a big star. Had he not done Ventura, In Living Color, The Mask... Once Bitten wouldn't be the movie that made him a star. That's a FACT as well as my own opinion. Which happens to be better than your opinion.
This was Cameron Diaz's first movie, and Jim Carrey's second starring role, after Ace Ventura. =D
That's because this was a dark horse comic book. Even the cartoon series on cartoon network made my entire childhood awesome
This movie was filmed before "Ace Ventura - Pet Detective" but because of the special effects it came out after. Since Jim Carrey was basically a nobody at first his pay for it was quite modest (low), but after Ace Ventura did so well he was able to renegotiate his contract for The Mask before it was released and made a lot more money.
"Liar Liar" is another Jim Carrey movie you should see, after "Ace Ventura" (there are two of them).
A lot of people said their funniest moment of the movie was when Milo wore the mask to successfully scare off one of the villains. However, my funniest part was when Dorian (which was also one of the villains) puts on the mask and then dodges all of the bullets fired at him. Then all of those bullets he dodged that he charged up in his mouth comes shooting out of his mouth as a way of killing the main mobster. Also the evil sinister laugh Dorian lets out after killing that main mobster was great.
This was Cameron Diaz's first film, not Jim Carrey's. You were on the right track.
This was her first film full length feature film 100% true it's on the behind the scenes on the DVD
Early second of 35:08. This is her reaction in shortcut to this movie xD
You have the cutest smile in the planet.
I wish you the best and much success for your channel 🌺
Was once my fav movie and deffo fav actor. I even took masked Jim character on myself to say fuck you bullies 😅🤣They got so confused and decided I was to weird to bully hahaha. Actually true story here 🤩😚
19:46 I also feel same way when character is in an embarrassing situation =D
Your reaction is too precious 😂 I’m at work enjoying this video hehe.
15:33 LOL your reaction 😂
Ace Ventura - pet detective is what propelled Carey to the big screen
Oh, no, Magy. Jim Carrey had been well known for _years_ before _this_ movie came along. He first came to the attention of the mainstream American public with a weekly sketch comedy show called _In Living Color._ It was along the same lines as _Saturday Night Live,_ except the episodes were only about half an hour.
It also launched the acting careers of several members of the Wayans family, Jamie Foxx, Kim Coles, Thomas Davidson and David Alan Grier as well as the _dancing_ careers of Rosie Perez and Jennifer Lopez.
One of the filmcomedians of the 90s.
One of the best dogactors of the 90s
One of the best comedies of the 90s.
(At 7:48) I wonder if the mask was based off of Taz the Tasmanian devil considering there are two cameos with Taz on this movie. Well one Cameo appearance and a call back.
The Cameo appearance would probably be the "Taz pillow" on his couch.
Call back to Taz would be how the Mask's rapid movements and transformation using Taz's signature cyclone.
🎭As I remember it, JC was already well known from TV's "In Living Color" and a lot of his stand-up. You could say everyone was anticipating something like "The Mask" to come out so he could showcase his true talents. The movie was tailored made for him or rather he was tailor made for it. I guess both, but the film we know today would not have been made if it were not for him.
🎭And boy, oh boy ...did he ever show us the true comic genius he was and still to come! Like Robin Williams, he will always be known as one of a kind. I knew you would love it! And as usual ...I enjoyed it with you.
🎭Thanks❗😂🤗🤯🤪😵🥴🥶🤣
As Milo the dog might say, Grrrrrrrreat reaction. I always remember the Making of The Mask where Jim Carrey jokingly asked the special effects people if he had left enough room for the dinosaurs (Jurassic Park had just come out and computer graphics were everywhere).
If you want to see a good dog actor, watch As Good As It Gets.
Thanks for this reaction video.
Love him as Dr. Robotnik in the Sonic movie. I cannot effing wait for the next one!
Got to love the movie logic. There can NOT be two pajamas with the same fabric. When clothing are made, they only make one style and fabric of each.
"Smoking it's party time P.A.R.T WHY because I gonna" I couldn't stop laughing either when I first watched The Mask this film also marks Cameron Diaz film debut
Jim Carrey is such a great comedian actor love him he really just is great at facial expressions
I'm so happy that you found this gem from us 90's babies childhoods! I also never realized how dirty this movie was when I was a kid lol
God, an underrated Carrey classic that doesn't get enough is "Me, Myself, and Irene", that movie is so funny. I think you'd enjoy it.
1994 was a great year for movies.. Mask, Pulp Fiction, Forrest Gump, Shawshank Redemption, Ed Wood all came out in this year..
