Movie Description
Carrey's certifiable but cool alter ego, Ace Ventura, continues his pet sleuthing in the wilds of Africa as he tries to avert a tribal war by locating a kidnapped sacred bat.
Synopsis
All-righty then! Ace Ventura returns in this sequel to the surprise smash hit of 1994. In Africa, a rare white bat has been kidnapped, causing strife between two tribes. Of course, the rubber-faced Ace -- who's afraid of bats -- is sent to find the missing creature, resulting in the kind of mayhem, chaos and silliness that only Ace can create.
