Jim Carrey was the king of 90s comedies, and this off-the-wall film was another perfect vehicle for his physical humor. When timid Stanley Ipkiss put on a mysterious mask, he found that wearing it gave him the kind of wacky powers usually only found in animation. He could make crazy faces, break anything he wanted and teach jerks a lesson with magically appearing objects. Even though the masked persona could get violent, it didn’t have serious consequences. The green-faced alter-ego was a cartoon character brought to life in the real world, which is basically every kid’s dream.
