Amazon.co.uk Review
The 1994 box-office hit that turned comedy maniac Jim Carrey into Hollywood's first $20-million man, this gag-filled no-brainer stars Carrey as the titular rubber-faced gumshoe who tracks down lost pets for his heartbroken clients. Ace's latest case involves the apparent kidnapping of the Miami Dolphins' team mascot, Snowflake the dolphin. His investigation is a source of constant aggravation for Miami police lieutenant Lois Einhorn (Sean Young), who turns out to be packing more than a pistol under her skirt. Friends fans will appreciate the presence of Courtney Cox, who remains admirably straight-faced as the Dolphins' publicist and Ace's would-be girlfriend, but of course it's Carrey who steals the show with shameless abandon. Carrey's hyper antics made Ace Ventura: Pet Detective one of the bestselling videos of the 1990s.

This inevitable sequel finds Jim Carrey reprising his role as the world's greatest pet detective. His latest case, the disappearance of a rare African white bat, draws him out of his spiritual retreat at a Tibetan monastery following the tragic outcome of his previous case. That traumatic experience, which makes for a hilarious opening-scene send-up of the Stallone thriller Cliffhanger, prompts Ace to venture to Africa, where he goes native with the tribe that hired him to find their symbolic bat. From that point anything goes, with Carrey pushing the boundaries of good taste (what, you were expecting good taste?) up to and including his now-infamous "birth" scene from the backside of a mechanical rhinoceros. Hey, don't be ashamed if you find yourself laughing. --Jeff Shannon

Synopsis
In the family comedy ACE VENTURA – PET DETECTIVE, our titular hero (Jim Carrey, DUMB & DUMBER) takes it upon himself to rescue lost and stolen pets from harm's way. Sure, he may have some unorthodox methods--indeed, he may even be certifiable--but no one can fault his sincerity, as he gumshoes his way through an obstacle course of absurdity. WHEN NATURE CALLS continues Ventura's pet sleuthing in the wilds of Africa. His mission: to avert a tribal war by locating the whereabouts of a sacred bat.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great value, but BEWARE........, 5 Mar 2008
By H. Baker (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Just a quick review to warn buyers that 'Ace Ventura - When Nature Calls' is cut by one minute thirty eight seconds to achieve a PG rating (As are all versions available in the UK). Several of the edgier/cruder jokes have been either reduced or removed.

If that doesn't bother you then buy this boxset without hesitation, but if you want the films completely uncut then buy the region 1 DVDs from America.

5.0 out of 5 stars Who Couldnt Love This, 11 May 2009
By Ms. Ceilidh Lipp "CJL" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
It's Jim Carrey at his best!
i've watched both of these dvd's at least 15-20 times and i still find myself laughing out loud. Now maybe people would argue this may be due to my taste in humour. But i dare anyone to watch it and not laugh at least once. Its not even just laughing its laughing with tears streaming down your cheeks.
