Since I'm currently watching The Cable Guy, what is the most underrated Jim Carrey movie?

I haven't seen many of his films, but I think Man on the Moon is underrated.

For a long time, it was The Cable Guy. Everybody shat on it unfairly but in the last 5 years it's started to get the love it deserves.
Currently, I'd say....Yes Man. It's not a classic or anything, but it's a good watch. An enjoyable little film. An entertaining 90 mins. Nobody ever mentions it though.

Cable Guy
Man on the Moon is a decent movie, but far too many liberties were taken and I may have actually preferred Norton in the role.

Considering I own a limited print of a poster for The Majestic, the answer is The Majestic. Second choice on there is something not listed, "Doing Time On Maple Drive" is a great little Lifetime movie that shows that Jim can act when he wants to.

The only one I ever liked of his was 'Yes Man'. Not a Carrey fan.
Will 'Yes Man' ever be in the Criterion Collection?

The Truman Show, Horton Hears A Who and Man On The Moon for me.

Is The Truman Show really underrated? Seems it gets plenty of love.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is a fantastic film. More should see it.

I'm pretty sure most people acknowledge that The Truman Show is one of the best movies ever made so I'm not sure if you can call it underrated. Anyway, I voted for Man on the Moon, though I haven't seen that one in years.

Pfft, Earth Girls Are Easy can also be considered a Damon Wayans movie, too, but who watched it to see Jim's 3 minutes of screen time?
(You watched to see Julie Brown, don't lie.)

I'm not sure what necessarily qualifies as underrated. The TRuman Show is one of my favorite moviews eer, but I don't think it's underrated as it gets a lot of positive buzz nowadays. From that list, I'd go with The Majestic and Fun with Dick and Jane.
