Jim Carrey is well known for his physical comedy and outrageous slap stick, but he also managed to star in few dramatic role that critics loved. Also few clunkers along the way.
Dumb and Dumber is probably his most famous comedy movie, but (IMO) Jeff Daniels performance left alot to be desired and some scenes gross me out. So have to go with Ace Ventura:When Nature Calls as my favorite movie as Jim is at his best in over the top performance routine.
Ranked by Date:
Ace VenturA: Pet Detective (1993): His first lead role in a movie.

The Mask (1994): A fun comedy super hero film with great F/X.

The Cable Guy (1996): Probably one of my least favorite Carrey film as his character was too dark.

Liar Liar (1997): The court room scenes are hilarious.
