Jim Carrey's Least Loved Movie: A Thriller Flop

Jim Carrey is famous for his hilarious comedies. But one movie stands out as his worst: a thriller called Dark Crimes. This movie has the rare honor of a 0% score on Rotten Tomatoes. That means not a single critic liked it. Carrey has starred in many great films, like The Mask, Dumb and Dumber, and The Truman Show. But Dark Crimes? It's a different story. Dark Crimes is about a detective who sees eerie similarities between a murder and a bestselling book. Sounds interesting, right? Sadly, the movie isn't. It's dull and never delivers the thrills it promises. It's based on a true story and Carrey put in a committed performance, but it still didn't work. The movie made just $21, 216 at the box office. Carrey has done better in other thrillers. Movies like The Number 23 and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind showed his dramatic side. But Dark Crimes? It's a letdown. Even his roles in The Bad Batch and The Cable Guy were more memorable. So, what went wrong with Dark Crimes? It's hard to say exactly. But the bottom line is, it's a thriller that lacks thrills.
