It’s either the world is changing or me growing up, but it seems like there are so many disturbing things going on in the world, that it’s hard to clear the mind and not to feel anxiety, but watching this pure humor, that kind smile, no aggression or vulgarity - makes my heart melting and smoothes my thoughts, and I’m sincerely from the bottom of my heart thankful to Jim Carrey for that he shares his brilliant talents with us ❤

Jim is the only stand up comedian I know of who stood in the front and actually did a comedy act. Others just stand there and dish out their one liner jokes. So Carrey is the best.

[@lilmissrockchick4962]

I've always thought Jim Carrey, regarding attractiveness, is one of those people who might not be Greek God level handsome but I think if you saw him walking down the street (Even if he wasnt famous), you're eyes would sort of go towards him, he's got quite a striking look, I'd say

[@seditiouswalrus]

[@rossini9mozart10]

The genius of this man is that he doesn't even doubt for a microsecond anything he says and does when he plays. He is so sure of himself, as a natural thing that does not pass through the intellect (anymore), that he can say and do anything that would still be funny. Because when the audience sees and feels something deeply stable, like an unstoppable straight line, they are immediately hooked and it's won. To have understood and above all succeeded in accomplishing this, Jim Carrey is a comedian and actor comparable to Chaplin and Louis De Funes

[@hiimmeurnot]

The way I see it, Jim Carrey is just a highly intelligent and skilled man living almost entirely without fear. We use labels like Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder to describe behavior we don't understand or can't predict, but these diagnoses often come with a negative connotation.
