Ace Ventura Jr.: Pet Detective is a family comedy film directed by David M. Evans and released in 2009. It revolves around the son of the original Ace Ventura, Ace Ventura Jr. (played by Josh Flitter), who follows in his father's footsteps as he tries to solve crimes and rescue animals. The story begins with Ace Jr. living with his grandmother, who runs a pet detective agency. Despite his young age, Ace is passionate about animals and has a talent for solving pet-related crimes. When the local animal park experiences a rash of thefts, Ace Jr. takes it upon himself to investigate and find the culprit.

Along the way, Ace Jr. enlists the help of his friends, including his crush, Laura (played by Emma Lockhart), and the school bully, A-Plus (played by Reed Alexander). Together, they follow clues and attempt to catch the thief before it's too late.

As the story progresses, Ace Jr. discovers that the situation at the animal park is more complicated than he originally thought. He must not only catch the thief, but also save the animals from harm and prove his worth as a pet detective.

The acting in Ace Ventura Jr.: Pet Detective is solid, with Flitter doing an excellent job as the title character. He captures the spirit of Jim Carrey's character without imitating him, and delivers his lines with just the right amount of humor and heart. Lockhart also shines as Ace Jr.'s love interest, and Cusack gives a strong performance as Ace's grandmother.

The humor in the movie is often silly and slapstick, but there are also some clever jokes and references that will keep adults entertained. The movie also includes some positive messages about friendship, family, and the importance of perseverance.

Overall, Ace Ventura Jr.: Pet Detective is a fun and entertaining family movie that will appeal to fans of the original Ace Ventura films, as well as younger viewers who are new to the character. While it may not be as groundbreaking or memorable as the original movies, it is still an enjoyable romp that is worth checking out.

Ace Ventura Jr.: Pet Detective is a 2009 comedy with a runtime of 1 hour and 34 minutes.
