The Mask



In 1994, the movie The Mask proved that you can make live-action cartoons. It showcased the creative use of CGI, but it was Jim Carrey's physical humor that made it work better than others that tried the same technique later (like Cat in the Hat). The Mask cost $23 million to make and grossed $351 million. It made Cameron Diaz a star and made Jim Carrey a legend.

It may have done all that, but let's face it — a groundbreaker like "Star Wars" it wasn't.

Thank you, I'd never seen the whole movie.
