Beliefs

Carrey believes the MMR vaccine causes autism, which is contrary to scientific consensus. In 2009, he wrote an article questioning the merits of vaccination and vaccine research for The Huffington Post.[84] With former partner Jenny McCarthy, Carrey led a "Green Our Vaccines" march in Washington, D. C., to advocate for the removal of toxic substances from children's vaccines, out of a belief that children had received "too many vaccines, too soon, many of which are toxic."[85] The rally was criticized by David Gorski, an American surgical oncologist on Science-Based Medicine blog for being anti-vaccine, not “pro-safe vaccine”[86] and by Steven Parker on WebMD website for being "irresponsible"

He can get lost in the jungle or kidnapped by ISIS, for all I care. I won't miss him.

I'm not a fan of his type of comedy. He's good at what he does but that's just not something I'm interested in.

I think he's an interesting person, and I watched the documentary about him playing Andy Kaufman which kinda just reaffirmed that he has to be a little nutty. But I guess that's what makes people like him.

I used to hate him because he play idiotic roles but after I watched the Truman show, the spotless mind of enternal sunshine and etc, I found he is amazing actor and it takes talent to play even those idiotic plays
Jim Carrey also has amazing motivational speeches

OlderAndWiser · Answer

I do not like any humor which gets labelled "zany" or "madcap." Jerry Lewis is the founding father of this brand of humor and Robin Williams was the one who took it to another level. If you like this type of comedy, Jim Carrey is good stuff. I don't like this type of comedy, but Jim Carrey's portrayal of Andy Kaufman in "Man On The Moon" was perhaps the best performance I have ever seen!

Kuraj · Answer

As a child I liked his dumb roles (The Mask, Dumb and Dumber, Ace Ventura) but later on I grew out of it.
I'm not particularly fond of his humor or mannerism.

But I loved Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and also his performance in Series of Unfortunate Events.
I think he is kind of the inside-out actor who needs fitting roles (much like Johnny Depp) but seemingly isn't landing them.

PrincessPie · Answer

I don’t mind him as actor I use to love the mask movie as a child.
