Jim Carrey was told Siskel & Ebert called him “the worst actor ever” three days before Ace Ventura dropped Jim Carrey: “My manager sat me down at a restaurant in Chicago and said, ‘We got kind of bad news, Siskel and Ebert killed you.’” “Three days before it came out, they had the words on a page and I just looked and it said, ‘The worst movie ever made.’” “‘The worst actor ever made. This is the end.’” Sacha Baron Cohen: “Because it’s completely original, no one had seen it.” Jim Carrey: “I have been disappointed so many times in my career, I have an automatic downshift.” “Both of them said, ‘We were wrong. We didn’t know what we were seeing.’ And that’s just a wonderful thing.”
